Histone deacetylases and their inhibitors: molecular mechanisms and therapeutic implications in diabetes mellitus
Epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation, histone modification and microRNA changes have been shown to be important for the regulation of cellular functions. Among them, histone deacetylases (HDACs) are enzymes that balance the acetylation activities of histone acetyltransferases in chromatin r...
