表观遗传机制在非小细胞肺癌靶向治疗获得性耐药中的研究进展

Patients with oncogenic driver alterations of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) can benefit from targeted therapy, but acquired resistance is inevitable ultimately. Epigenetic modifications, including DNA methylation, histone modifications, non-coding RNA-mediated regulate and chromatin remodeling, are important mechanisms of acquired resistance in targeted therapy of NSCLC. In recent years, studies have found that epigenetic modifications can effectively reverse drug resistance. Targeted therapy combined with epigenetic modifications may become a promising therapeutic strategy. Here, we review the progress of epigenetic mechanism in acquired resistance of targeted therapy in NSCLC, hoping to provide ideas for screening dominant population and overcoming resistance.
