HDAC5 and gastric cancer: RNA-seq data from The Cancer Genome Atlas revealed that expression of B7-H1, HDAC1–3, 6–8, and 10 and SIRT1, 3, 5, and 6 was higher, and expression of HDAC5 and SIRT4 was lower in GC compared to that in normal gastric tissues; that HDAC3 and HDAC1 expression level significantly correlated with B7-H1 in GC with a respective r value of 0.42 (p < 0.001) and 0.21 (p < 0.001).
