Dissecting Histone Deacetylase Function [PDF]
Chemistry & Biology, 2002 Recent research describes the use of chromatin immunoprecipitation and intergenic chromosomal-DNA microarrays to analyze HDAC function genome-wide. The next step in realizing the full potential of these analyses will be to develop specific and temporal control over HDAC perturbation.

Material‐Induced Nuclear Deformation Controls Chromatin Architecture in Adipose Stem Cells
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Tuning cell and cytoskeleton mechanics modulated nuclear shape and heterochromatin organization in ASCs. Distinct cytoskeletal architectures induced nuclear morphologies from oblate to prolate ellipsoids. Large elongated cells with a structured actin cap exhibited high nuclear strain, driving nuclear envelope deformation and heterochromatin ...

Plant Responses to Abiotic Stress Regulated by Histone Deacetylases
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 In eukaryotic cells, histone acetylation and deacetylation play an important role in the regulation of gene expression. Histone acetylation levels are modulated by histone acetyltransferases and histone deacetylases (HDACs).

Dual Inhibitors Targeting DNA and Histone Deacetylases
Pharmaceutical Fronts, 2020 Histone deacetylases (HDACs) regulate the acetylation status of histones and structural status of chromatin. The chromatin structure becomes relaxed after inhibition of HDAC, leading to DNA exposed to DNA disrupting agents, and eventually causing DNA ...

The possible prognostic role of histone deacetylase and transforming growth factor β/Smad signaling in high grade gliomas treated by radio-chemotherapy: a preliminary immunohistochemical study [PDF]
, 2017 Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive tumor of the central nervous system. Unfortunately, patients affected by this disease have a very poor prognosis, due to high level of invasiveness and resistance to standard therapies.

A Trypsin‐Like Serine Protease ZmNAL1a Fine‐Tunes Maize Floral Transition and Flowering Time
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study identifies a trypsin‐like serine protease, ZmNAL1a, that moves from leaves to the shoot apical meristem. ZmNAL1a promotes the floral transition by degrading TOPLESS‐like corepressor REL2, which thereby enhances the expression of key flowering genes through elevating histone acetylation and relieving REL2–ZmEREBP147‐mediated transcriptional ...

Histone deacetylases and their role in motor neuron degeneration
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2013 Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease, characterized by the progressive loss of motor neurons. The cause of this selective neuronal death is unknown, but transcriptional dysregulation is recently emerging as an ...

Emerging roles of telomeric chromatin alterations in cancer [PDF]
, 2019 Telomeres, the nucleoprotein structures that cap the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes, play important and multiple roles in tumorigenesis. Functional telomeres need the establishment of a protective chromatin structure based on the interplay between the ...
