CREB-Binding Protein Is a Mediator of Neuroblastoma Cell Death Induced By the Histone Deacetylase Inhibitor Trichostatin A

The cytotoxic mechanism of the histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACI) Trichostatin A (TSA) was explored in a neuroblastoma (NB) model. TSA induces cell death in neuroblastic-type NB cells by increasing the acetylation of Ku70, a Bax-binding protein. Ku70 acetylation causes Bax release and activation...
