Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Excess histone deacetylase (HDAC) activity can induce hypoacetylation of histone and nonhistone protein substrates, altering gene expression patterns and cell behavior potentially associated with malignant transformation. However, HDAC expression and protein acetylation have not been studied in the context of breast cancer progression. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: We assessed expression levels of acetylated...
