Histone Deacetylases and Their Inhibitors in Cancer Epigenetics

open access: yesDiseases (Basel, Switzerland), 2019
Histone deacetylases (HDAC) and histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) have greatly impacted the war on cancer. Their role in epigenetics has significantly altered the development of anticancer drugs used to treat the most rare, persistent forms of ...

Targeting Class I Histone Deacetylases in a “Complex” Environment

open access: yesTrends in Pharmacological Sciences, 2017
Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors are proven anticancer therapeutics and have potential in the treatment of many other diseases including HIV infection, Alzheimer's disease, and Friedreich's ataxia.

Targeting Histone Deacetylases with Natural and Synthetic Agents: An Emerging Anticancer Strategy

open access: yesNutrients, 2018
Cancer initiation and progression are the result of genetic and/or epigenetic alterations. Acetylation-mediated histone/non-histone protein modification plays an important role in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression.

Phylogenetic analysis, subcellular localization, and expression patterns of RPD3/HDA1 family histone deacetylases in plants [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2009
Background Although histone deacetylases from model organisms have been previously identified, there is no clear basis for the classification of histone deacetylases under the RPD3/HDA1 superfamily, particularly on plants.

Histone Deacetylases in Retinoblastoma. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Mol Sci
Retinoblastoma, a pediatric ocular malignancy, presents significant challenges in comprehending its molecular underpinnings and targeted therapeutic approaches. The dysregulated activity of histone deacetylases (HDACs) has been associated with retinoblastoma pathogenesis, influencing critical cellular processes like cell cycle regulation or retinal ...

Histone deacetylases and cancer [PDF]

open access: yesOncogene, 2007
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) regulate the expression and activity of numerous proteins involved in both cancer initiation and cancer progression. By removal of acetyl groups from histones, HDACs create a non-permissive chromatin conformation that prevents the transcription of genes that encode proteins involved in tumorigenesis. In addition to histones,

Plant Responses to Abiotic Stress Regulated by Histone Deacetylases

open access: yesFrontiers 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).

The histone acetyltransferase p300 inhibitor C646 reduces pro-inflammatory gene expression and inhibits histone deacetylases [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Pharmacology, 2015
Lysine acetylations are reversible posttranslational modifications of histone and non-histone proteins that play important regulatory roles in signal transduction cascades and gene expression.

Histone deacetylases (HDACs) and brain function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Modulation of gene expression is a constant and necessary event for mammalian brain function. An important way of regulating gene expression is through the remodeling of chromatin, the complex of DNA, and histone proteins around which DNA wraps.
