Abstract
Epigenetics plays a key role in gene expression control. Histone modifications including acetylation/ deacetylation or methylation/demethylation are major epigenetic mechanisms known to regulate epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT)-associated gene expression during hypoxia-induced cancer metastasis. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay is a powerful tool for investigation of histone modification patterns of genes of interest. In this chapter, we describe a protocol that uses chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) to analyze the epigenetic regulation of EMT marker genes by deacetylation of acetylated Histone 3 Lys 4 (H3K4Ac) under hypoxia in a head and neck cancer cell line FaDu cells. Not only a method of ChIP coupled by real-time quantitative PCR but also the detailed conditions are provided based on our previously published studies.
