Histone acetylation, a post-translational modification, which alters chromatin architecture and regulates gene expression is associated with cancer initiation, development and progression. Aberrationsin global histone acetylation levels are observed in various cancer cells and are also associated with patients’ tumor aggressiveness. Therefore, histone acetylation may have prognostic utility and serve as a potential biomarker of cancer progression and patients’ prognosis. The reversible modification of histones by an acetyl group is versatile. One particular histone can be acetylated on different lysine residues, subsequently resulting in different biological outcomes. Here, we discuss recent findings on the acetylation of the highly conserved histone protein H3 in the context of cancer biology. Specifically, we review the acetylation of particular H3 residues in various cancer types. We further highlight the significance of H3 acetylation levels as a potential cancer biomarker with prognostic implications.  \nKeywords: histone H3; histone acetylation; cancer; cancer progression; biomarker; cancer prognosis  \n1. Introduction  \nCancer’s complexity, with incidence and mortality still growing in many countries, makes it a life-threatening disease worldwide [1] . Clinical outcomes for cancer patients, including, for example, metastatic potential, response to chemotherapy and risk of recurrence, often differ completely among patients with lesions with the same localization, stage or histopathological and molecular cancer subtype [2–4] . Cancer is the first human disease to be associated with epigenetic alterations [5] . Elucidating the role of epigenetic marks such as histone acetylation and other post-translational modifications (PTMs) is key to understanding the mechanisms of cancer cell proliferation and drug resistance and the modifications in tumor microenvironment composition that favor tumor growth [6] . Given its importance in the process of carcinogenesis, histone acetylation is being explored asa molecular marker defining the oncogenic potential of different tumors together with prediction of clinical outcomes [7] .  \nHistones are highly conserved among Eukaryotes and are positively charged nuclear proteins that form histone octamer, which acts as a linker, stabilizing the entire structure of the nucleosome [8–10] . Various types of histone PTMs have been identified, with prime modifications including acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation, ubiq","cbCaidt0IpaugCmh","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaidt0IpaugCmh","pdf",1383390,18,"English","# Abstract\n# Keywords\n# 1.
