New clinical developments in histone deacetylase inhibitors for epigenetic therapy of cancer
DNA methylation and histone acetylation are two well known epigenetic chromatin modifications. Epigenetic agents leading to DNA hypomethylation and histone hyperacetylation have been approved for treatment of hematological disorders.

Histone deacetylase inhibitors and transplantation [PDF]
Simply detecting the presence or absence of Foxp3, a transcription factor characteristic of naturally occurring CD4+ CD25+ regulatory T cells (Tregs), now appears of minimal value in predicting the outcome of immunologic responses, since dividing human CD4+ effector T cells can induce Foxp3 without attaining repressive functions, and additional ...

Resistance after chronic application of the HDAC-inhibitor valproic acid is associated with elevated Akt activation in renal cell carcinoma in vivo [PDF]
Targeted drugs have significantly improved the therapeutic options for advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC). However, resistance often develops, negating the benefit of these agents.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Epigenetics of cervical cancer. An overview and therapeutic perspectives
Cervical cancer remains one of the greatest killers of women worldwide. It is difficult to foresee a dramatic increase in cure rate even with the most optimal combination of cytotoxic drugs, surgery, and radiation; therefore, testing of molecular ...

Entinostat-Bortezomib Hybrids against Multiple Myeloma
Although proteasome inhibitors have emerged as the therapeutic backbone of multiple myeloma treatment, patients often relapse and become drug refractory. The combination between proteasome and histone deacetylase inhibitors has shown to be more efficient

The histone deacetylase inhibitor valproic acid alters growth properties of renal cell carcinoma in vitro and in vivo [PDF]
Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors represent a promising class of antineoplastic agents which affect tumour growth, differentiation and invasion. The effects of the HDAC inhibitor valproic acid (VPA) were tested in vitro and in vivo on pre-clinical ...

Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...

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.
