“…Toh et al reported that the MTA1 protein is associated with histone deacetylation in vitro (13) and in clinical sample of human cancers (14). The MTA1 protein may serve multiple functions in cellular signaling, chromosome remodeling and transcription processes that are important in the progression, invasion and growth of metastatic epithelial cells (15). The overexpression of MTA1 protein and acetylation level of histone H4 protein, both of which are closely related, might be useful predictors of malignant potential of esophageal squamous cell carcinomas (14).…”

“…Despite the important role of MMP-2 in NSCLC, it is interesting to note that MMP-2 was not found in human SCLC, 42 which may indicate distinct strategies of invasion being used by these 2 types of lung cancer. Future studies investigating a potential role for the histone deacetylase metastasisassociated (MTA1) gene product, 43 as well as other metastasisassociated genes (e.g., mst1, nm23, KiSS1, MKK4, galectin-3, etc.) among the DLKP variants, may help to fully elucidate their mechanism(s) of drug-induced in vitro invasiveness.…”

“…A large body of work suggests a role for MTA1 in human cancer (2,36,37) as well as a critical contribution of the loss of PTEN in cell survival signaling (38 -40). Earlier studies have demonstrated that MTA1 forms a corepressor complex with HDAC1/2 and is recruited to the target gene promoters, thereby repressing gene transcription (29).…”
