Selective inhibition of cancer cell self-renewal through a Quisinostat-histone H1.0 axis

Targeting self-renewing cancer cells without deleterious side effects in normal tissues has proven challenging. Here, the authors show that the well-tolerated HDAC inhibitor Quisinostat safely inhibits tumor maintenance and disease relapse by restoring high levels of histone H1.0.
