Abstract
Epigenetic modifications play central roles in cellular differentiation and their deregulations really contribute to tumor development. Histone deacetylase (HDAC) enzymes can exert their functions in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression related to oncogenesis via deacetylating the lysine residues of histones in the chromatin and various non-histone proteins. A majority of HDAC inhibitors (HDACIs) have been in different stages of preclinical and clinical trials with potent anticancer activity recently. Among these agents, chidamide tested as either monotherapeutic agent or in combination regimens for numerous hematological and solid malignancies has shown promising potential as an orally active subtype-selective HDACI. Herein we will highlight the progress of clinical trials of chidamide and rationally analyze those results from both preclinical and clinical studies about chidamide as an epigenetic modulator in cancer therapy.
Keywords: Epigenetic, histone deacetylase inhibitors, chidamide, hematologic and solid cancers, preclinical and clinical trials.

Discovery of Lead compounds targeting transcriptional regulation
Transcriptional regulation plays key physiological functions in body growth and development. Transcriptional dysregulation is one of important biomarkers of tumor genesis and progression, which is involved in regulating tumor cell processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Additionally, it plays a pivotal role in angiogenesis and promotes tumor metastasis ...read more
Induction of cell death in cancer cells by modulating telomerase activity using small molecule drugs
Telomeres are distinctive but short stretches present at the corners of chromosomes and aid in stabilizing chromosomal makeup. Resynthesis of telomeres supported by the activity of reverse transcriptase ribonucleoprotein complex telomerase. There is no any telomerase activity in human somatic cells, but the stem cells and germ cells undergone telomerase ...read more

Metalloenzymes and Cancer: Μetalloenzyme Ιnhibitors and Artificial Metalloenzymes as anti-cancer agents
Metalloenzymes are enzymes containing metal ions, which are directly bound to the enzyme and play a role in promoting catalysis. About one-third of all enzymes known so far are metalloenzymes [1]. Metalloenzymes are central to a wide range of essential biological activities, including nucleic acid modification, protein degradation, and many ...read more
