Accumulated evidence has established that aberrant regulation of histone deacetylases (HDACs) is one the major causes development human malignancies. Among different iso‐enzymes HDAC and sirtuins grouped as super family, little known to how deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) carcinogenesis in solid tumors. Here, order investigate possible role HDAC2 gastric carcinogenesis, we analyzed expression 71 adenocarcinomas by immunohistochemistry. Moderate strong was found 44 (62%) out a total The majority...
Sirtuins are nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide oxidized form (NAD+)-dependent deacetylases and function in cellular metabolism, stress resistance, aging. For sirtuin7 (SIRT7), a role ribosomal gene transcription is proposed, but its cancer has been unclear. In this study we show that SIRT7 expression was up-regulated large cohort of human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. knockdown influenced the cell cycle caused significant increase liver cells to remain G1/S phase suppress growth....
Abstract Background Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) play an important role in the induction of chemo‐resistance. This study aimed to clarify mechanism underlying CAF‐mediated resistance two tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), sorafenib and lenvatinib, identify a novel therapeutic target for overcoming TKI hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods We performed systematic integrative analysis publicly available gene expression datasets whole‐transcriptome sequencing data from 9 pairs CAFs...
Abstract Histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) is crucial for embryonic development, affects cytokine signaling relevant immune responses, and often significantly overexpressed in solid tumors, but little known of its role human lung cancer.

An accurate tool enabling early diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is clinically important, given that detection HCC markedly improves survival. We aimed to investigate the molecular markers underlying progression can be detected in precancerous lesions. designed a gene selection strategy identify potential driver genes by integrative analysis transcriptome and clinicopathological data human multistage tissues, including lesions, low‐ high‐grade dysplastic nodules. The process was...
Exosomal microRNAs (exo-miRs) have been promising cancer biomarkers. MiRs in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell-derived exosomes (HEX) were analyzed to identify reliable serum biomarkers for HCC. To detect overexpressed miRs HEX, extracted exosomal small RNAs from human HCC cell lines and normal hepatocytes sequenced analyzed. Clinical significance of the HEX was evaluated using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) on samples a validation cohort consisting 28 healthy individuals, 60 with...
Ubiquitin-binding histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) is uniquely endowed with tubulin activity and plays an important role in the clearance of misfolded protein by autophagy. In cancer, HDAC6 has become a target for drug development due to its major contribution oncogenic cell transformation. present study we show that expression was down-regulated large cohort human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients, low significantly associated poor prognosis HCC patients 5-year overall, disease-free,...
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are known to play a central role in the regulation of several cellular properties interlinked with development and progression cancer. Recently, HDAC1 has been reported be overexpressed hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but its biological roles hepatocarcinogenesis remain elucidated. In this study, we demonstrated overexpression subset human HCCs liver cancer cell lines. inactivation resulted regression tumor growth activation caspase-independent autophagic death,...
Histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) is crucial for embryonic development, affects cytokine signaling relevant immune responses and often significantly overexpressed in solid tumors; but little known about its role human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this study, we showed that targeted-disruption of HDAC2 resulted reduction both tumor cell growth de novo DNA synthesis Hep3B cells. We then demonstrated regulated cycle disruption caused G1/S arrest cycle. transition, selectively induced the...

Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) uniquely serves as a tumor suppressor in hepatocellular carcinogenesis, but the underlying mechanisms leading to suppression are not fully understood. To identify comprehensive microRNAs (miRNAs) regulated by HDAC6 differential miRNA expression analysis of ‐transfected Hep3B cells was performed. Using integrative analyses publicly available transcriptome data and target prediction, we selected five candidate miRNAs and, through vitro functional validation,...
Deregulation of the epigenome component affects multiple pathways in cancer phenotype since acts at pinnacle hierarchy gene expression.
