Histone deacetylases as therapeutic targets in hematologic malignancies

Abstract excerpt

During the past 5 years, it has become increasingly apparent that deregulated transcriptional control is a root cause of hematologic malignancy. Chromosomal translocations yield novel fusion transcription factors that in turn either activate genes critical for cell growth or repress genes important for normal cellular differentiation. Many of the fusion proteins of myeloid leukemia are aberrant transcriptional...
