Small molecules targeting the flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-dependent histone lysine demethylase LSD family have displayed therapeutic promise against various diseases. Nine clinical candidates targeting the classic demethylase-dependent functions of the LSD family are currently being investigated for treating cancers, neurodegenerative diseases, etc. Moreover, targeting noncatalytic functions of LSDs also represents an emerging strategy for treating human diseases. In this Perspective, we provide full structural and functional landscape of the LSD family and action modes of different types of LSD inhibitors including natural products, peptides, and synthetic compounds, aiming to reveal new druggable space for the design of new LSD inhibitors. Particularly, we first classify these inhibitors into three types based on their unique binding modes. Additionally, the strategies targeting the demethylase-independent functions of LSDs are also briefly discussed. This Perspective may benefit the discovery of new LSD inhibitors for probing LSD biology and/or treating human diseases.
