Histone deacetylase 8 inhibition suppresses mantle cell lymphoma viability while preserving natural killer cell function.

ABSTRACT: Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL) is a non-Hodgkin lymphoma with a median survival rate of five years. Standard treatment with high-dose chemotherapy plus rituximab (anti-CD20 antibody) has extended overall survival although, the disease remains incurable. Histone deacetylases (HDAC) are a family of enzymes that regulate multiple proteins and cellular pathways through post-translational modification. Broad spectrum HDAC inhibitors have shown some therapeutic promise, inducing cell cycle inhibition and apoptosis in leukemia and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. However, the therapeutic effects of these broad-spectrum HDAC inhibitors can detrimentally dampen Natural Killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity, reduce NK viability, and downregulate activation receptors important for NK mediated anti-tumor responses.
