Application

Trapoxin A has been used:
  • to study its effects on the inhibition of histone deacetylase 11 (HDAC11)
  • to study its effects on the inhibition of HDAC3 in human cell lines
  • to study its effects on the inhibition of HDAC6 in rat pyramidal neurons

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Trapoxin A is a cyclotetrapeptide and a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor. It increases the level of chromatin acetylation associated with histone H3 at low nanomolar concentrations. Unlike the reversible HDAC inhibition induced by TCA, Trapoxin A irreversibly inhibites HDAC activity in crude cell lysates, and induces the accumulation of hyperacetylated core histones in a number of mammalian cell lines and tissues. Histone acetylation and methylation have been studied extensively for their anti-tumor activities in carcinogenesis and Trapoxin has been suggested as a potential anticancer agent for pre-clinical trials.

The role of epigenetic modifications due to deregulated acetylation of nucleosomes with respect to its role in progression and etiology of human cancer is discussed. Among the mediators of these phenomena are the histone deacetylases, a class of enzymes consisting

Articles

Epigenetic modifications are thought to occur through two key interconnected processes—DNA methylation and the covalent modification of histones.
