Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACIs) cause oncogene‑transformed mammalian cell death. Our previous study indicated that HDACIs activate forkhead box O1 (FOXO1) and induce autophagy in liver and colon cancer cells. However, whether FOXO1 is involved in HDACI‑mediated oncogene‑transformed mammalian cell death remains unclear. In the present study, H‑ras transformed MCF10A cells were used to in...

PURPOSE Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) have neuroprotective effects under various neurodegenerative conditions, e.g., after optic nerve crush (ONC). HDACi-mediated protection of central neurons by increased histone acetylation has not previously been demonstrated in rat retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), although epigenetic changes were shown to be associated with cell death after ONC. We i...

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is currently treated with aggressive chemotherapy that is not well tolerated in many elderly patients, hence the unmet medical need for effective therapies with less toxicity and better tolerability. Inhibitors of FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3), JAK2 and histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) have been tested in clinical studies, but showed only moderate single-a...

a r t i c l e i n f o Keywords: Background subtraction Rough set 3D histon 3D fuzzy histon 3D HRI 3D FHRI Detection of moving objects in the presence of challenging background situations like swaying vegetation, rippling water, camera jitter etc., is known to be a difficult task. Background subtraction is considered to be better than the other approaches in terms of robustness. Its success prim...

Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis) inhibit tumor cell growth and survival, possibly through their ability to regulate the expression of specific proliferative and/or apoptotic genes. However, the HDACi-regulated genes necessary and/or sufficient for their biological effects remain undefined. We demonstrate that the HDACis suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) and depsipeptide regulate a h...

Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) show promise as cancer therapeutics; however, the full scope of their utility remains unknown. Here we report findings that strongly rationalize clinical evaluation of HDACis in malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST), a class of highly aggressive, therapeutically resistant, and commonly fatal malignancies that occur sporadically or in patients wi...

INTRODUCTION Paclitaxel improves the oncologic response of breast cancer resections; however, it may negatively affect the wound-healing potential of human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs) for fat grafting and reconstructive surgery. Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis) modify the epigenetic regulation of gene expression and stabilize microtubules similarly to paclitaxel, thus, creating a ...

Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) are being investigated for the control of various human parasites. Here we investigate their potential as insecticides for the control of a major ecto-parasite of sheep, the Australian sheep blowfly, Lucilia cuprina. We assessed the ability of HDACi from various chemical classes to inhibit the development of blowfly larvae in vitro, and to inhibit HDAC act...

The prognosis of patients with metastatic breast cancer remains poor, and thus novel therapeutic approaches are needed. Capecitabine, which is commonly used for metastatic breast cancer in different settings, is an inactive prodrug that takes advantage of elevated levels of thymidine phosphorylase (TP), a key enzyme that is required for its conversion to 5-fluororacil, in tumors. We demonstrate...
