Journal ArticleDOI

Histone deacetylases and cancer.

TL;DR: The aim of this review is to summarize the current knowledge concerning the role of HDACs in cancer with special emphasis on what the authors have learned from the analysis of patient samples.
Journal ArticleDOI

Control of endothelial cell proliferation and migration by VEGF signaling to histone deacetylase 7

TL;DR: It is shown that VEGF induces the phosphorylation of three conserved serine residues in histone deacetylase 7 (HDAC7) via protein kinase D, which promotes nuclear export of HDAC7 and activation of V EGF-responsive genes in ECs.
Journal ArticleDOI

The SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complex is a cofactor for Tat transactivation of the HIV promoter.

TL;DR: Tat-mediated activation of the HIV promoter requires the SWI/SNF complex in synergy with the coactivator p300, and it is found that INI-1 and BRG-1 synergized with the p300 acetyltransferase to activate the HIV promoters.
Journal ArticleDOI

Repressive LTR Nucleosome Positioning by the BAF Complex Is Required for HIV Latency

TL;DR: The role of SWI/SNF in regulation of the latent HIV LTR before and after transcriptional activation is addressed and a striking reverse correlation is found when compared to the strictly positioned in vivo LTR nucleosomal structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protein kinase D1 phosphorylates HDAC7 and induces its nuclear export after T-cell receptor activation

TL;DR: It is reported that HDAC7 is exported to the cytoplasm by a calcium-independent signaling pathway after TCR activation, and observations indicate that PKD1 regulates the expression of Nur77 during thymocyte activation at least in part by phosphorylatingHDAC7.
