Description
Epigenetic code modifications by histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) have recently been proposed as potential new therapies for hematological malignancies. Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) remains incurable despite the introduction of new treatments. CLL cells are characterized by an apoptosis defect rather than excessive proliferation, but proliferation centers have been found in organs such as bone marrow and lymph nodes.
