Abstract

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a clonal B-cell malignant neoplasm. In recent years, higtone deacetylase (HDAC) are dysregulated in MM, and MM patients with high expression of HDAC have significantly poorer prognostic outcomes. Acetylation of proteins influences a diverse range of cellular functions. Moreover, histone acetylation transferase (HAT) and HDAC keep the acetylation status of proteins in dynamic balance. Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACI) have emerged as a novel class of chemotherapeutics which are being evaluated in clinical trials. This review discusses the research progress of HDACI in therapy of MM in recent years. Key words: Histone acetyltransferases; Multiple myeloma; Therapy
