Bifunctional HDAC Therapeutics: One Drug to Rule Them All?

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Histone deacetylase (HDAC) enzymes play crucial roles in epigenetic gene expression and are an attractive therapeutic target. Five HDAC inhibitors have been approved for cancer treatment to date, however, clinical applications have been limited due to ...

Roles of histone deacetylases in epigenetic regulation: emerging paradigms from studies with inhibitors

open access: yesClinical Epigenetics, 2012
The zinc-dependent mammalian histone deacetylase (HDAC) family comprises 11 enzymes, which have specific and critical functions in development and tissue homeostasis.

Interplay between circadian and other transcription factors—Implications for cycling transcriptome reprogramming

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...

Thermal shift engagement assay for Class IIA histone deacetylase inhibitor screening

open access: yesResults in Chemistry
Histone deacetylase (HDAC) proteins are the targets of several anti-cancer clinical drugs, which motivates future inhibitor development. Class IIA HDAC proteins, HDAC4, HDAC5, HDAC7, and HDAC9, are pseudodeacetylases that lack a key catalytic amino acid ...

The Role of HDACs and HDACi in Cartilage and Osteoarthritis

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Epigenetics plays an important role in the pathogenesis and treatment of osteoarthritis (OA). In recent decades, HDAC family members have been associated with OA.

ING1 inhibits Twist1 expression to block EMT and is antagonized by the HDAC inhibitor vorinostat

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cell Biology, 2023
ING1 is a chromatin targeting subunit of the Sin3a histone deacetylase (HDAC) complex that alters chromatin structure to subsequently regulate gene expression.

The role of histone modifications in transcription regulation upon DNA damage

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review discusses the critical role of histone modifications in regulating gene expression during the DNA damage response (DDR). By modulating chromatin structure and recruiting repair factors, these post‐translational modifications fine‐tune transcriptional programmes to maintain genomic stability.

Class IIa HDACs forced degradation allows resensitization of oxaliplatin‐resistant FBXW7‐mutated colorectal cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
HDAC4 is degraded by the E3 ligase FBXW7. In colorectal cancer, FBXW7 mutations prevent HDAC4 degradation, leading to oxaliplatin resistance. Forced degradation of HDAC4 using a PROTAC compound restores drug sensitivity by resetting the super‐enhancer landscape, reprogramming the epigenetic state of FBXW7‐mutated cells to resemble oxaliplatin ...

Induction of histone deacetylases (HDACs) in human abdominal aortic aneurysm: therapeutic potential of HDAC inhibitors

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2016
Clinical management of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is currently limited to elective surgical repair because an effective pharmacotherapy is still awaited.
