Background Notable progress has been made in chemo- and immunotherapy of B-cell lymphomas, but less in the treatment of T-cell lymphomas. Objective Histone deacetylases inhibitors are a potentially useful therapeutic mean, as an epigenetic dysregulation is present in lymphomas, and especially in T-cell types. We aimed to study the progress made in this area. Method A mini-review was achieved using the articles published in PubMed in the last two years and the new patents made in this field. Results Histone deacetylases inhibitors are involved in the derepression of tumor suppressor genes through a histone deacetylase-mediated transcriptional process. Their inhibition is followed by cell cyc…
