Cancer continues to be a prevalent and lethal disease, despite advances in tumor biology
research and chemotherapy development. Major obstacles in cancer treatment arise from …

Histone deacetylases are key enzymes of epigenetic regulation and are therefore involved
in crucial cellular events like transcription, differentiation, apoptosis and cell division. The …

Although genetics determines endocrine phenotypes, it cannot fully explain the great
variability and reversibility of the system in response to environmental changes. Evidence …

The emergent interest in cancer epigenetics stems from the fact that epigenetic modifications
are implicated in virtually every step of tumorigenesis. More interestingly, epigenetic …
