Combined DNA Methyltransferase and Histone Deacetylase Inhibition in the Treatment of Myeloid Neoplasms
15 Jun 2006
Abstract excerpt
Optimal reexpression of most genes silenced through promoter methylation requires the sequential application of DNA methyltransferase inhibitors followed by histone deacetylase inhibitors in tumor cell cultures. Patients with myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia (AML) were treated with the methyltransferase inhibitor 5-azacitidine (aza-CR) followed by the histone deacetylase inhibitor sodium...
