The current study was assigned to investigate the effect of trichostatin A (HDACI) in comparison to zebularine (DNMTI) on the intrinsic pro-apoptotic (Bax, Bim, and Bak) and anti-apoptotic (Bcl-2, Mcl-1, and Bcl-xL) genes and extrinsic (DR4, DR5, FAS, FAS-L, and TRAIL genes) pathways, DNA methyltransferase 1, 3a, and 3b, histone deacetylase inhibitors 1, 2, and 3, cell viability, and apoptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) SK-Hep 1, colorectal cancer SW620, and pancreatic cancer PaCa-44 cell lines. The gene discussed is MCL1; the disease is pancreatic neoplasm.
