Putting the ‘HAT’ back on survival signalling: the promises and challenges of HDAC inhibition in the treatment of neurological conditions
24 Apr 2009
Abstract excerpt
Decreased histone acetyltransferase activity and transcriptional dysfunction have been implicated in almost all neurodegenerative conditions. Increasing net histone acetyltransferase activity through inhibition of the histone deacetylases (HDACs) has been shown to be an effective strategy to delay or halt progression of neurological disease in cellular and rodent models. These findings have provided firm...
