Abstract excerpt
We investigated whether clinically achievable concentrations of the histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors givinostat and hydroxyurea induce synergistic cytotoxicity in Jak2(V617F) cells in vitro and through which possible mechanism. Givinostat and hydroxyurea at low doses potentiated the pro-apoptotic effects of each other in the Jak2(V617F) HEL and UKE1 cell lines. Givinostat induced 6.8%-20.8% and hydroxyurea...
