Abstract excerpt
HDAC, by modifiing relations between DNA and histones, are major proteins of the epigenetic regulation. They play part in the signal transduction and in many cellular processes: cell cycle control, apoptosis, protein degradation, angiogenesis, invasion and cell motility. In several models of cancer HDAC inhibitors (HDACIs) are able to up regulate tumor suppressing gene (p53, p21, pRB...) and to down regulate...
