FK228 (Romidepsin)(Cat No.:A000730)is a potent histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor with strong antitumor activity. By inhibiting HDACs, FK228 promotes the accumulation of acetylated histones, leading to the reactivation of tumor suppressor genes and the induction of apoptosis in cancer cells. It is primarily used in cancer research, especially in studying T-cell lymphomas and other malignancies. FK228 has shown significant efficacy in clinical settings for cutaneous and peripheral T-cell lymphoma, making it a key molecule for understanding epigenetic regulation and developing novel cancer therapies.
