Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibition is a process in which enzymes that normally remove acetyl groups from histones are blocked. Histones are proteins that form part of the structure of chromosomes, and their acetylation or deacetylation affects several cellular processes, including gene expression, DNA repair, and cell differentiation. Inhibition of HDACs increases the level of histone acetylation, which has been shown to have a wide range of effects on gene expression and cellular function. HDAC inhibitors are being studied as potential treatments for a variety of diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and autoimmune diseases.
HDAC inhibition can counteract the abnormal acetylation status of proteins found in cancer cells and can reactivate the expression of tumor suppressors {ref}
Phenylbutyrate is a prodrug that is metabolized to phenylacetate, which is the active molecule that combines with glutamine (an amino acid with two nitrogen molecules) to form phenylacetylglutamine which is rapidly excreted by the kidneys and does not require metabolism via the urea cycle. Phenylbutyrate thus provides an “ammonia sink”, an alternative pathway for excretion of excess nitrogen and ammonia Ref
