چکیده

acetylation and deacetylation are the main posttranslational modifications of histones. Increased deacetylation is associated with carcinogenesis, but the individual histone deacetylase (HDAC) responsible for this increase remains elusive. This study was designed to investigate the role of histone deacetylase 1 during tumorigenesis in McF-7 human breast cancer cells. Anti-sense RNA was used to downregulate HDAC1 expression. RT-PCR analysis confirmed the efficiency of the anti-sense RNA, revealing that anti-sense RNA effectively downregulated HDAC1. The MTT assay showed that the proliferation of MCF-7 cells was inhibited and that cell activity was decreased. Cell cycle analysis identified cell cycle phase variations, with cells mainly arrested in the G1 and G2 phase. The anti-sense RNA of HDAC1 induced the inhibition of proliferation and cell cycle arrest in MCF-7 cells, suggesting it might have therapeutic applications as an antitumor agent in breast cancer.

Effects of berberine on proliferation, cell cycle distribution and apoptosis of human breast cancer T47D and MCF7 cell lines

Objective(s):Berberine, a naturally occurring isoquinoline alkaloid, has shown antitumor properties in some in vitro systems. But the effect of berberine on breast cancer has not yet been completely studied. In this study, we evaluated anticancer properties of berberine in comparison to doxorubicin. Materials and Methods: The antiproliferative effects of berberine and doxorubicin alone and in ...

RNAi screening identifies HAT1 as a potential drug target in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Esophageal carcinoma (EC) is one of the most fatal carcinomas of the gastrointestinal tract. Aberrant activity of histone acetyltransferases (HATs)/deacetylases (HDACs) play a critical role in carcinogenesis through the regulation of the genes involved in cell differentiation, proliferation, and apoptosis. However, cellular functions of HATs/HDACs in esophageal cancer and its molecular mechanis...

Stable molecular changes during cell division without any change in the sequence of DNA molecules is known as epigenetic. Molecular mechanisms involved in this process, including histone modifications, methylation of DNA, protein complex and RNA antisense. Cancer genome changes happen through a combination of DNA hypermethylation, long-term epigenetic silencing with heterozygosis loss and genom...

Effects of Trichostatin A on the Histone Deacetylases (HDACs), Intrinsic Apoptotic Pathway, p21/Waf1/Cip1, and p53 in Human Neuroblastoma, Glioblastoma, Hepatocellular Carcinoma, and Colon Cancer Cell Lines

Background:  The aberrant and altered patterns of gene expression play an important role in the biology of cancer and tumorigenesis. DNA methylation and histone deacetylation are the most studied epigenetic mechanisms. Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACIs) such as valproic acid (VPA) and trichostatin A (TSA) are a group of anticancer compounds for the treatment of solid and hematological canc...
