Background: Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACIs) have got immense importance as promising drugs for cancer treatment as these inhibitors regulate cellular differentiation, gene expression, cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. The current study investigates the effect of the hybrid-polar HDACI m-carboxycinnamic acid bishydroxyamide (CBHA) on the growth of human pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells, using the cell line MIA PaCa- 2 as an in vitro model.
Methods: Following CBHA treatment of the MIA PaCa-2 cells, we characterized the effect of CBHA by in vitro cytotoxicity evaluation, clonogenic assay, cell cycle analysis, immunoblotting for soluble and insoluble fractions of tubulin, immunofluorescence and caspase-3 assay.
Results: We observed that the histone deacetylase inhibitor CBHA markedly impaired growth of the pancreatic cancer cells by resulting in dose-dependent G2/M arrest, disruption of microtubule organization, induction of caspase-mediated apoptosis and in vitro suppression of HDAC6. Our study also shows that inhibition of HDAC6 by CBHA induced acetylation of α-tubulin.
Conclusion: Together, our findings show that CBHA can be a potential plausible therapeutic that could be exploited for pancreatic cancer therapy.

Background: Radiotherapy is the primary treatment modality for most head and neck cancers (HNCs). Despite the addition of chemotherapy to radiotherapy to enhance its tumoricidal effects, almost a third of HNC patients suffer from locoregional relapses. Salvage therapy options for such recurrences are limited and often suboptimal, partly owing to divergent tumor and microenvironmental factors underpinning radioresistance.

Post-translational modifications of histone H3 on lysine 9, specifically acetylation (H3K9ac) and tri-methylation (H3K9me3), play a critical role in regulating chromatin accessibility. However, the role of these modifications in lineage segregation in the mammalian blastocyst remains poorly understood. We demonstrate that di- and tri-methylation marks, H3K9me2 and H3K9me3, decrease during cavitation and expansion of the rabbit blastocyst.

Background: The potential role of Klebsiella pneumoniae (K.pn) in hypertension development has been emphasized, although the specific mechanisms have not been well understood. Bacterial extracellular vesicles (BEVs) released by Gram-negative bacteria modulate host cell functions by delivering bacterial components to host cells.

Background: B-Raf proto-oncogene, serine/threonine kinase (BRAF)-mutant microsatellite stable (MSS) colorectal cancer (CRC) constitutes a distinct CRC subgroup, traditionally perceived as minimally responsive to standard therapies. Recent clinical attempts, such as BRAF inhibitors (BRAFi) monotherapy and combining BRAFi with other inhibitors, have yielded unsatisfactory efficacy. This study aims to identify a novel therapeutic strategy for this challenging subgroup.

Naringenin has the potential to regulate ferroptosis and mitigate renal damage in diabetic nephropathy (DN). However, it remains unclear whether the naringenin's effects in DN are linked to its ability to regulate ferroptosis. This study investigated the potential anti-ferroptosis properties of naringenin in high glucose (HG)-induced renal tubular epithelial cell models.
