HDAC6 and cervical cancer: So, we first analysed the expression of HDAC6 and HDAC8 in normal and cancerous cervical tissue samples in The Human Protein Atlas database and learned that HDAC6 expression is low in cervical cancer tissues when compared to normal cervix (medium expression) and that HDAC8 is overexpressed (low-medium expression) in cancerous cervix when compared to undetectable expression in normal cervix [38].
