5-Fluorouracil Targets Histone Acetyltransferases p300/CBP in the Treatment of Colorectal Cancer

Although 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) is known to interfere with the synthesis of ribonucleic acid and deoxyribonucleic acid, the mechanism underlying its therapeutic efficacy in colorectal cancer (CRC) has not been fully elucidated. We aimed to investigate the influence of 5-FU on histone acetylation, a well-established anti-cancer target, to reveal novel pharmacological effects of 5-FU and their significance for CRC therapy. Results demonstrated that 5-FU induces global histone de-acetylation in multiple CRC cell lines.
