Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis) are anticancer agents that inhibit tumor cell growth and/or survival. However, their mechanism of action remains largely undefined. Recently, we have demonstrated that HDACis induce apoptosis in a model of rat thyroid cells transformed by the v-ras-Ki oncogene (FRTL-5 v-ras-Ki). The stabilization of TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) protein, due to its reduced ubiquitination and proteasome degradation, accounts for the apoptotic effect induced specifically by suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA, Vorinostat) in the v-ras-Ki thyroid transformed cells.
