Abstract excerpt
Aberrant epigenetic gene regulation by deacetylation of histone proteins has been involved in tumorigenesis. Histone deacetilase (HDAC) inhibitors are promising anticancer agents under research and development.

It exhibits a considerably stronger direct inhibition in class I HDAC enzymes...
