Mechanism of action

Histone deacetylase inhibitors, such as CC-2001, work by blocking the action of histone deacetylases, which are enzymes that remove acetyl groups from histones. This leads to an increase in histone acetylation, which in turn promotes chromatin relaxation and increases gene expression. CC-2001 is being investigated for its potential to treat various types of cancer.
