Trichostatin A induces 5-lipoxygenase promoter activity and mRNA expression via inhibition of histone deacetylase 2 and 3 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) is the key enzyme in the formation of leukotrienes. We have previously shown that the histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor trichostatin A (TSA) activates 5-LO transcription via recruitment of Sp1, Sp3 and RNA polymerase II to ...

New histone deacetylase inhibitors as potential therapeutic tools for advanced prostate carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The anti-epileptic drug valproic acid is also under trial as an anti-cancer agent due to its histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitory properties. However, the effects of valproic acid (VPA) are limited and concentrations required for exerting anti ...

Histone deacetylase 2 is phosphorylated, ubiquitinated, and degraded by cigarette smoke [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Cigarette smoke (CS)-induced lung inflammation involves the reduction of histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) abundance, which is associated with steroid resistance in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and in individuals with severe asthma who

Cancer cell histone density links global histone acetylation, mitochondrial proteome and histone acetylase inhibitor sensitivity

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2022
Elevated histone density is associated with global histone acetylation, histone deacetylase inhibitor sensitivity and altered mitochondrial proteome composition, with histone regulator HMGB1 linked to histone density aberrations in many cancer cell lines.

Inhibition of Histone Deacetylases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Lysine acetylation of histones is one of the major epigenetic regulators of chromatin conformation and gene expression. The dynamic nature of histone acetylation is determined by the counterbalancing activity of histone acetyltransferase and histone deacetylase (HDAC) enzymes.

Histone Deacetylases and Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors: Molecular Mechanisms of Action in Various Cancers

open access: yesAdvanced Biomedical Research, 2019
Epigenetic modifications such as histone modification play an important role in tumorigenesis. There are several evidence that histone deacetylases (HDACs) play a key role in cancer induction and progression by histone deacetylation.

Potential of histone deacetylase inhibitors for the therapy of ovarian cancer

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Dissecting the roles of histone deacetylase 1 and 2 in the hematopoietic system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Reversible histone acetylation on lysine residues has been intensively studied as an epigenetic mark for gene activation in a variety of eukaryotes. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) act to repress gene expression by removing acetyl groups from histones and ...
