A review of the therapeutic potential of histone deacetylase inhibitors in rhabdomyosarcoma [PDF]
This review aims to summarize the putative role of histone deacetylases (HDACs) in rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) and the effects of HDAC inhibitors (HDACi) on RMS by elucidating and highlighting known oncogenic pathways, mechanisms of resistance, and the ...

Histone Deacetylases and Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors in Neuroblastoma [PDF]
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are enzymes that play a key role in regulating gene expression by remodeling chromatin structure. An imbalance of histone acetylation caused by deregulated HDAC expression and activity is known to promote tumor progression in

Role of histone deacetylase inhibitors in non-neoplastic diseases [PDF]
Background: Epigenetic dysregulation has been implicated in the development and progression of a variety of human diseases, but epigenetic changes are reversible, and epigenetic enzymes and regulatory proteins can be targeted using small molecules ...

Histone deacetylase inhibitors
The human genome is contained in chromatin, which is a complex macromolecular complex. It is made of DNA, histones and non-histone proteins. The structure of chromatin and the process of its rearrangement regulate the process of transcription, and hence ...

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.

Medicinal chemistry of histone deacetylase inhibitors [PDF]
Today, we are witnessing an explosion of scientific concepts in cancer chemotherapy. It has been considered for a long time that genetic instability in cancer should be treated with drugs that directly damage the DNA. Understanding the molecular basis of

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 ...
