Abstract
Epigenetic modifications play central roles in cellular differentiation and their deregulations really contribute to tumor development. Histone deacetylase (HDAC) enzymes can exert their functions in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression related to oncogenesis via deacetylating the lysine residues of histones in the chromatin and various non-histone proteins. A majority of HDAC inhibitors (HDACIs) have been in different stages of preclinical and clinical trials with potent anticancer activity recently. Among these agents, chidamide tested as either monotherapeutic agent or in combination regimens for numerous hematological and solid malignancies has shown promising potential as an orally active subtype-selective HDACI. Herein we will highlight the progress of clinical trials of chidamide and rationally analyze those results from both preclinical and clinical studies about chidamide as an epigenetic modulator in cancer therapy.
Keywords: Epigenetic, histone deacetylase inhibitors, chidamide, hematologic and solid cancers, preclinical and clinical trials.

Induction of cell death in cancer cells by modulating telomerase activity using small molecule drugs
Telomeres are distinctive but short stretches present at the corners of chromosomes and aid in stabilizing chromosomal makeup. Resynthesis of telomeres supported by the activity of reverse transcriptase ribonucleoprotein complex telomerase. There is no any telomerase activity in human somatic cells, but the stem cells and germ cells undergone telomerase ...read more
