Chromatin remodeling, cell proliferation and cell death in valproic acid-treated HeLa cells.
BACKGROUND: Valproic acid (VPA) is a potent anticonvulsant that inhibits histone deacetylases. Because of this inhibitory action, we investigated whether VPA would affect chromatin supraorganization, mitotic indices and the frequency of chromosome abnormalities and cell death in HeLa cells. METHODOL...
