Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis) are a group of chemicals used in the treatment of cancer. They target histone deacetylase enzymes which are important in cancers. These enzymes are proteins which work “epigenetically” since they are able to change the expression of genes without altering the genes. They increase cell differentiation and apoptosis (programmed cell death). […]

The ability of cells to control the expression of genes is important for cell survival. Nutrients can alter the gene expression that controls levels of bioactive proteins. Herbs alter gene activity in various ways. Gene transcription, the most important, is the initial step in gene expression. The pregnane X receptor (PXR receptor) is the target […]
