Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors [PDF]

Journal of Thoracic Oncology, 2011
Histone modification and DNA methylation are critical events that determine gene expression. Histone deacetylases (HDAC) render several critical genes transcriptionally inactive by conferring a “hyperwound” configuration. HDAC inhibition leads to unwinding of the DNA and makes it available to the transcriptional machinery for expression of a number of ...

Histone deacetylase 5 promotes the migration and invasion of hepatocellular carcinoma via increasing the transcription of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α under hypoxia condition

Tumor Biology, 2017
Hypoxia plays a critical role in the progression and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma by activating the key transcription factor, hypoxia-inducible factor-1.

Comparative genomics of the class 4 histone deacetylase family indicates a complex evolutionary history

BMC Biology, 2006
Background Histone deacetylases are enzymes that modify core histones and play key roles in transcriptional regulation, chromatin assembly, DNA repair, and recombination in eukaryotes. Three types of related histone deacetylases (classes 1, 2, and 4) are

Histone Deacetylases in Stroke

Chinese Journal of Physiology, 2019
Stroke is the second leading cause of death and the leading cause of adult disability worldwide. Despite an impressive amount of neuroprotective agents that has been identified in experimental stroke, none of them proved efficient in clinical trials. There is a general consensus that an effective treatment requires the ability

The Mi-2 nucleosome remodeler and the Rpd3 histone deacetylase are involved in piRNA-guided heterochromatin formation

Nature Communications, 2020
In S. pombe, small non-coding RNA mediates heterochromatin formation by recruiting the nucleosome remodeling and histone deacetylase complex. Here, the authors show that fly nucleosome remodeler Mi-2 and histone deacetylase Rpd3 are involved in piRNA ...

Mechanism of assembly, activation and lysine selection by the SIN3B histone deacetylase complex

Nature Communications, 2023
Lysine acetylation in histone tails is a key post-translational modification that controls transcription activation. Histone deacetylase complexes remove histone acetylation, thereby repressing transcription and regulating the transcriptional output of ...

Potential of histone deacetylase inhibitors for the therapy of ovarian cancer

Frontiers in Oncology, 2022
Malignant ovarian tumors bear the highest mortality rate among all gynecological cancers. Both late tumor diagnosis and tolerance to available chemotherapy increase patient mortality.

Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors: A Novel Strategy for Neuroprotection and Cardioprotection Following Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Ischemia/reperfusion injury is a complex molecular cascade that causes deleterious cellular damage and organ dysfunction. Stroke, sudden cardiac arrest, and acute myocardial infarction are the most common causes of ischemia/reperfusion injury without ...

Comprehensive suppression of all apoptosis-induced proliferation pathways as a proposed approach to colorectal cancer prevention and therapy. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Mutations in the WNT/beta-catenin pathway are present in the majority of all sporadic colorectal cancers (CRCs), and histone deacetylase inhibitors induce apoptosis in CRC cells with such mutations.
