2010). Accordingly, many genes involved in development and proliferation control have been identified as HDAC1 targets (Zupkovitz et al. 2006). Interestingly, silencing of HDAC1 in ES cells and mouse embryos leads to upregulation of HDAC2, which cannot counterbalance for the loss of HDAC1 during embryonic development. In contrast to the previously described findings, conditional deletion of HDAC1 in T cells resulted in increased proliferation (Grausenburger et al. 2010) and in a murine teratoma model HDAC1 seemed to be required to attenuate proliferation of epithelial cells (Lagger et al.

2009). The class I deacetylase HDAC1 seems to play an important role in this process. For instance, HDAC1 was shown to repress the expression of RECK and RhoB in tumor cells (Lee et al. 2010). Similarly, an HDAC1-containing b-catenin corepressor complex was shown to negatively affect the levels of Kangai 1 in metastatic cells (Kim et al. 2005). A key element of metastasis is the conversion from adhering epithelial cells to motile mesenchymal cells (termed EMT), which are then able to migrate from the site of the primary tumor.

2001), hepatoma cells (Yamashita et al. 2003), endometrial stromal sarcoma (Hrzenjak et al. 2006), small cell lung cancer cells (Platta et al. 2007), gliablastoma cells (Svechnikova et al. 2008), and thyroid carcinoma cells (Yuan et al. 2010). Most of the data about blocked differentiation as a hallmark of cancer come from studies with HDAC inhibitors, which prevent the activity of several HDAC family members, but little is known about the contribution of individual HDACs. However, in neuroblastoma cells it has been shown that a particular HDAC – namely HDAC8 – is a crucial regulator of tumor cell differentiation (Oehme et al.
