Cytotoxic Effects of Valproic Acid on Neuroendocrine Tumour Cells.

• Histone deacetylases (HDACs) modulate lysine acetylation on histones and are frequently deregulated in cancer. HDAC inhibitors with potent anti-tumour effects have been developed and are now being tested in clinical trials. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of valproic acid (VPA), an inhibitor of class-I and class-IIa HDACs, on neuroendocrine tumour (NET) cell growth.
