Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors are part of a new generation of epigenetic drugs for cancer treatment. It is known that histone acetylation plays a key role in controlling essential chromosome functions, including gene regulation, and this process has been linked with cancer development and pr...

Transcriptional dysregulation has emerged as a core pathologic feature of Huntington's disease (HD), one of several triplet-repeat disorders characterized by movement deficits and cognitive dysfunction. Although the mechanisms contributing to the gene expression deficits remain unknown, therapeutic ...

HDAC inhibitors are thought to regulate gene expression by post-translational modification of histone as well as non-histone proteins. Often studied at single loci, increased histone acetylation is the paradigmatic mechanism of action, however, little is known of the extent of genome-wide changes of...

Epithelioid Sarcoma (ES) is a rare neoplasm uniquely comprised of cells exhibiting both mesenchymal and epithelial features. Having propensity for local and distant recurrence, it can pose a diagnostic dilemma secondary to pathologic complexity. Patients have dismal prognosis due to lack of effectiv...

Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS) is the most common soft tissue cancer in children and is characterized by myogenic differentiation arrest. The prognosis of patients with relapsed or metastatic disease remains poor. ERMS genomes show few recurrent mutations, suggesting that other molecular mechani...

Increasing evidence has demonstrated that epigenetic factors can profoundly influence gene expression and, in turn, influence resistance or susceptibility to disease. Epigenetic drugs, such as histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors, are finding their way into clinical practice, although their exact m...

Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis) have been shown to potentiate hippocampal-dependent memory and synaptic plasticity and to ameliorate cognitive deficits and degeneration in animal models for different neuropsychiatric conditions. However, the impact of these drugs on hippocampal histone acety...

The identification of recurrent somatic mutations in genes encoding epigenetic enzymes, coupled with biochemical studies demonstrating aberrant recruitment of epigenetic enzymes such as histone deacetylases (HDACs) and histone methyltransferases (HMTs) to promoter regions through association with on...

Implementation of a complex design for a microarray experiment on resistance mechanisms of histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACI). To improve our understanding of the underlying mechanism of HDACI resistance in prostate cancer cells, we designed a novel ‘‘multiple-loop, double-cube’’ cDNA microarray...

Balance between histone acetylation and deacetylation is fundamental for proper gene function, thus knowledge of how to modulate these epigenetic processes is important for understanding of nuclear events, including replication, transcription, splicing and DNA repair. Here, we have studied an effect...
