Deskripsi

Azacitidine (AZA) treatment is used for patients with myelodysplasias that cannot undergo bone marrow transplantation; however, AZA treatment is only partially effective. Here the authors show synergy of AZA with compounds inhibiting the chromatin regulators CBP and p300, which is mediated by the RNA-dependent functions of AZA affecting protein translation.
