Upregulated astrocyte HDAC7 induces Alzheimer-like tau pathologies via deacetylating transcription factor-EB and inhibiting lysosome biogenesis by Jinwang Ye, Suyue Zhong, Huali Wan, Xing Guo, Xuanbao Yao, Qiong Liu, Liming Chen, Jian-Zhi Wang, Shifeng Xiao

“…HDAC7 could modulate astrocytic uptake and lysosomal degradation of tau proteins through a transcriptional factor EB (TFEB) acetylation-dependent manner. Specifically, deacetylation of TFEB at K310 site by HDAC7 prevented TFEB nuclear translocation with reduced lysosomal biogenesis and tau clearance in astrocytes, whereas inhibiting HDAC7 restored astrocytic TFEB acetylation level at K310 with improved tau pathology and cognitive functions in PS19 mice. …”

Histone Deacetylases Inhibitors in the Treatment of Retinal Degenerative Diseases: Overview and Perspectives by Hua Zhang, Xufeng Dai, Yan Qi, Ying He, Wei Du, Ji-jing Pang

“…Retinal degenerative diseases are one of the important refractory ophthalmic diseases, featured with apoptosis of photoreceptor cells. Histone acetylation and deacetylation can regulate chromosome assembly, gene transcription, and posttranslational modification, which are regulated by histone acetyltransferases (HATs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs), respectively. …”

Epigenetics and Breast Cancers by An T. Vo, Richard M. Millis

“…Enzymes that are involved in DNA methylation and histone modifications have been shown to be altered in several types of breast and other cancers resulting in abnormal patterns of methylation and/or acetylation. Hypermethylation at the CpG islands found in estrogen response element (ERE) promoters occurs in conjunction with ligand-bonded alpha subunit estrogen receptor (Erα) dimers wherein the ligand ERα dimer complex acts as a transcription factor and binds to the ERE promoter. …”
