Chidamide, a selective histone deacetylase inhibitor, has antitumour effects. 5‑azacitidine (5‑AZA), a hypomethylating agent, is effective in treating acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome. However, to the best of our knowledge, the effect of chidamide and 5‑AZA on AML cell lines has not been fully investigated. In the present study, the antileukaemia activity of chidamide, alone and in combination with 5‑AZA, was assessed on different subtypes of AML cell lines (M1‑M5) and primary samples from several patients with AML |
