Previously, we reported the effect of DNA demethylating agent 5-aza-2′-deoxycytidine (decitabine, 5AZA-CdR) and histone deacetylase inhibitors valproic acid (VPA) and trichostatin A (TSA) on histone deacetylase 1, DNA methyltransferase 1, and Cip/Kip family (p21, p27, and p57) genes expression, cell growth inhibition, and apoptosis induction in colon cancer SW480 cell line (Sanaei et al., 2018). The gene discussed is CIB1; the disease is colonic neoplasm.
