摘要：
SETDB1 is identified as a critical driver of metastatic uveal melanoma growth through a CRISPR-Cas9 screen targeting chromatin regulators. Inhibition of SETDB1 leads to reduced cell proliferation and survival, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target. The study demonstrates that SETDB1 inhibitors, such as Mithramycin A, significantly impair tumor growth in preclinical models, suggesting a promising avenue for treatment in patients with metastatic uveal melanoma.
