The Pan-Deacetylase Inhibitor Panobinostat Inhibits Growth of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Models by Alternative Pathways of Apoptosis
Abstract
Inhibition of deacetylases represents a new treatment option for human cancer diseases. We applied the novel and potent pan-deacetylase inhibitor panobinostat (LBH589) to human hepatocellular carcinoma models and investigated by which pathways tumor cell survival is influenced.
