Current concepts on the role of inflammation in COPD and lung cancer [PDF]

, 2009
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and lung cancer are leading cause of death, and both are associated with cigarette smoke exposure. It has been shown that 50–70% of patients diagnosed with lung cancer suffer from COPD, and reduced lung ...

Acetylation and Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors in Cancer

Analytical Cellular Pathology, 2006
In recent years, the role of epigenetics in the development and treatment of cancer has gained interest and the effects of internal and external factors on the epigenetic profile are under investigation. The term “epigenetics” refers to modifications that influence phenotype without altering genotype.

Targeting GLI factors to inhibit the Hedgehog pathway [PDF]

, 2015
Hedgehog (Hh) signaling has emerged in recent years as an attractive target for anticancer therapy because its aberrant activation is implicated in several cancers. Major progress has been made in the development of SMOOTHENED (SMO) antagonists, although

Histone Deacetylase (HDAC) Inhibitor Kinetic Rate Constants Correlate with Cellular Histone Acetylation but Not Transcription and Cell Viability

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2013
Background: The effect of HDAC inhibitor kinetic properties on biological function is currently unknown. Results: The kinetic rate constants of HDAC inhibitors differentially affect histone acetylation, cell viability, and gene expression.

Attenuation of choroidal neovascularization by histone deacetylase inhibitor.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) is a blinding complication of age-related macular degeneration that manifests as the growth of immature choroidal blood vessels through Bruch's membrane, where they can leak fluid or hemorrhage under the retina.

Intermittent Fasting Protects against Alzheimer’s Disease Possible through Restoring Aquaporin-4 Polarity

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2017
The impairment of amyloid-β (Aβ) clearance in the brain plays a causative role in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Polarity distribution of aquaporin-4 (AQP4) is important to remove Aβ from brain.

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

, 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 ...

Internuclear gene silencing in Phytophthora infestans is established through chromatin remodelling [PDF]

, 2008
In the plant pathogen Phytophthora infestans, nuclear integration of inf1 transgenic DNA sequences results in internuclear gene silencing of inf1. Although silencing is regulated at the transcriptional level, it also affects transcription from other ...
