Previous studies demonstrated that peanut testa extracts (KK4 and ICG15042) containing natural histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors inhibited the growth of several human cancer cell lines via apoptosis induction. The aims of this study were to inves...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate molecular mechanisms mediating anti-fibrotic effect of SAHA in the canine cornea using an in vitro model. We hypothesized that SAHA attenuates corneal fibrosis by modulating Smad-dependent and, to a lesser extent, Smad-indep...
Histone deacetylases 8 (HDAC8) is an enzyme repressing the transcription of various genes including tumour suppressor gene and has already become a target of human cancer treatment. In an effort to facilitate the discovery of HDAC8 inhibitors, two qu...
The histone acetyl transferase (HAT) are involved in acetylation of histones that lead to transcription activation in numerous gene regulatory mechanisms. There are very few GCN5 HAT inhibitors reported despite of their role in cancer progression. In...

Histone Deacetylases (HDACs) play a significant role in the regulation of gene expression by modifying histones and non-histone substrates. Since they are key regulators in the reversible epigenetic mechanism, they are considered as promising drug ta...
BACKGROUND: Alzheimer's disease is characterized by a progressive pattern of cognitive and functional impairment, which ultimately leads to death. Computational approaches have played an important role in the context of drug discovery for anti-Alzhei...
Histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) is a potential drug target for treatment of human diseases such as cancer, chronic inflammation, neurodegenerative diseases and diabetes. Machine learning (ML) as an essential cheminformatics approach has been widely use...
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is characterized by reduced cardiac output, as well as thinning and enlargement of left ventricular chambers. These characteristics eventually lead to heart failure. Current standards of care do not target the underlying ...
Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) is a promising drug target for the treatment of human diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative diseases (in particular, Alzheimer's disease), and multiple sclerosis. Considerable attention is paid to the development of...
Interest in HDAC3 inhibitors (HDAC3i) for pharmacological applications outside of cancer is growing. However, concerns regarding the possible mutagenicity of the commonly used hydroxamates (zinc-binding groups, ZBGs) are also increasing. Considering ...
