1 | The aim of this study was to determine if the demethylating agent, 5-Aza-2"-deoxycytidine (DAC) and if the histone deacetylase inhibitor Depsipeptide FR901228 (DP) could enhance MAGE-3 expression in lung and esophageal cancer cells. | dp | MAGE family member A3 | Homo sapiens |
2 | RESULTS: Relative to untreated controls, MAGE-3 expression was enhanced 32-fold (range 3.9 to 110) by DAC alone (0.1 micromol/L x 72 h), 2.1-fold (0.4 to 4.2) by DP alone (25 ng/mL x 6h), and 57-fold (4.6 to 209) by sequential DAC/DP exposure. | dp | MAGE family member A3 | Homo sapiens |
3 | RESULTS: Relative to untreated controls, MAGE-3 expression was enhanced 32-fold (range 3.9 to 110) by DAC alone (0.1 micromol/L x 72 h), 2.1-fold (0.4 to 4.2) by DP alone (25 ng/mL x 6h), and 57-fold (4.6 to 209) by sequential DAC/DP exposure. | dp | MAGE family member A3 | Homo sapiens |
4 | CONCLUSIONS: Sequential DAC/DP treatment may be a novel strategy to simultaneously augment MAGE-3 expression and induce growth arrest in thoracic malignancies. | dp | MAGE family member A3 | Homo sapiens |
