The deacetylase HDAC6 is an essential component of stress granules and plays a critical role in the cellular response to stress [PDF]
The reversible acetylation of histones has a critical role in transcriptional regulation. Likewise reversible acetylation of non-histones proteins is also important for other cellular processes.

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

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 ...

Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors [PDF]
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 ...

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

Histone Deacetylases and Their Isoform-Specific Inhibitors in Ischemic Stroke
Cerebral ischemia is the second leading cause of death in the world and multimodal stroke therapy is needed. The ischemic stroke generally reduces the gene expression due to suppression of acetylation of histones H3 and H4.

Synergy between histone deacetylase inhibitors and DNA-damaging agents is mediated by histone deacetylase 2 in colorectal cancer [PDF]
Previous studies have associated the overexpression of histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) and the presence of TP53 mutations with the progression to advanced stage drug resistant colorectal cancer (CRC).

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 ...
