The current study investigated the effects of TSA on mitochondrial/intrinsic [pro- (Bax, Bak, and Bim) and anti- (Bcl-2, Bcl-xL, and Mcl-1) apoptotic genes] and cytoplasmic/extrinsic (DR4, DR5, FAS, FAS-L, and TRAIL genes) pathways, histone deacetylase 1, 2, and 3, p53, p73, cell viability, and apoptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) HCCLM3, MHCC97H, and MHCC97L cell lines. This evidence concerns the gene FASLG and hepatocellular carcinoma.
