Salvage chemotherapy (CT) for relapsing or refractory small cell lung cancer (SCLC) remains disappointing.

Effects of valproic acid on sympathetic activity and left ventricularmyocardial remodelling in rats during pressure overload.

Turkish journal of medical sciences

Liu Y, Li S, Zhang Z, Lv Z, Jiang H, Tan X, Liu F.

Turk J Med Sci. 2017 Nov 13;47(5):1651-1660. doi: 10.3906/sag-1704-142.

Background/aim: Pressure overload induces cardiac remodelling and results in heart failure. Enhanced sympathetic outflow participates in the development of cardiac remodelling for the duration of pressure overload as an independent factor. Valproic acid has recently been shown to reduce...

PURPOSE: This study was conducted in order to validate the radiosensitization effect of valproic acid, a biologically available histone deacetylase inhibitor, for fractionated radiation.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Radiosensitization effect of valproic acid was tested for the A549 cell line and...

Interaction between carbenoxolone and valproic acid on pentylenetetrazole kindling model of epilepsy.

International journal of clinical and experimental medicine

Sefil F, Arık AE, Acar MD, Bostancı MÖ, Bagirici F, Kozan R.
PMID: 26379841
Int J Clin Exp Med. 2015 Jul 15;8(7):10508-14. eCollection 2015.

Gap junctions play an important role in the synchronized neuronal discharges. The main reason of the epileptic seizures is disruption of this synchronization. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to explore the combination valproic acid with carbenoxolone...

Update on the Genetic Polymorphisms of Drug-Metabolizing Enzymes in Antiepileptic Drug Therapy.

Pharmaceuticals (Basel, Switzerland)

Saruwatari J, Ishitsu T, Nakagawa K.
PMID: 27713373
Pharmaceuticals (Basel). 2010 Aug 20;3(8):2709-2732. doi: 10.3390/ph3082709.

Genetic polymorphisms in the genes that encode drug-metabolizing enzymes are implicated in the inter-individual variability in the pharmacokinetics and pharmaco-dynamics of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs). However, the clinical impact of these polymorphisms on AED therapy still remains controversial. The defective...

Cells adapt to the epigenomic disruption caused by histone deacetylase inhibitors through a coordinated, chromatin-mediated transcriptional response.

Epigenetics & chromatin

Halsall JA, Turan N, Wiersma M, Turner BM.
PMID: 26380582
Epigenetics Chromatin. 2015 Sep 16;8:29. doi: 10.1186/s13072-015-0021-9. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: The genome-wide hyperacetylation of chromatin caused by histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) is surprisingly well tolerated by most eukaryotic cells. The homeostatic mechanisms that underlie this tolerance are unknown. Here we identify the transcriptional and epigenomic changes that constitute...

Valproic acid (VPA) is a widely used antiepileptic drug with a broad range of effects and broad clinical efficacy. As a well-known histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, VPA regulates epigenetic programming by altering the expression of many genes. The aim...

The investigation of EEG specificity in epileptic children during Depakine therapy.

The International journal of neuroscience
