Abstract | OBJECTIVES: METHODS: RESULTS: Combined inhibition of HDAC1/2 led to HCC cell morphology changes, growth inhibition, cell cycle blockage and apoptosis in vitro and suppressed the growth of subcutaneous HCC xenograft tumours in vivo. p21Waf1/Cip1 and p19INK4d , which play roles in cell cycle blockage and apoptosis induction, were upregulated. Inhibition of HDAC1/2 by siRNA further demonstrated that HDAC1 and 2 cooperate in blocking the cell cycle and inducing apoptosis via p19INK4d and p21Waf1/Cip1 upregulation. Finally, H3K18, H3K56 and H4K12 in the p19INK4d and p21Waf1/Cip1 promoter regions were found to be targets of HDAC1/2. CONCLUSIONS: Pharmacological or transcriptional inhibition of HDAC1/2 increases p19INK4d and p21Waf1/Cip1 expression, decreases CDK expression and arrests HCC growth. These results indicated a potential pharmacological mechanism of selective HDAC1/2 inhibitors in HCC therapy.
