Valproate inhibition of histone deacetylase 2 affects differentiation and decreases proliferation of endometrial stromal sarcoma cells
1 Sept 2006
Abstract excerpt
Covalent modifications of histone proteins, in particular deacetylation of lysine residues, are important for the regulation of gene transcription both in normal and malignant cells. These processes are controlled by histone acetyltransferases and histone deacetylases (HDAC) and have up to now not been described in solid mesenchymal tumors. The present study shows differences in the HDAC1 and HDAC2 expression in...
