General description
Trichostatin A is a compound of primary hydroxamic acid.
Application
Trichostatin A, ready-made solution has been used:
- as a histone deacetylase inhibitor to study its effect on transcriptome changes by stem cell testing
- to inhibit histone deacetylase (HDAC) class I, II, or III in primary pituitary cell cultures and to investigate insulin control of endogenous human growth hormone gene (hGH)
- to treat cells for the HDAC inhibition experiments
Biochem/physiol Actions
Trichostatin A (TSA) is a Streptomyces metabolite, which specifically inhibits mammalian histone deacetylase at a nanomolar concentration and causes accumulation of highly acetylated histone molecules in mammalian cells. For that reason, trichostatin A is a tool to study the consequences of histone acetylation in vivo. Trichostatin A induces cell differentiation, cell cycle arrest, reversal of transformed cells morphology, and apoptosis and is able to modulate transcription. TSA has been used to establish a new cloning technique, which increases the success rates for mouse cloning.

Auxin is an important regulator of plant ontogenies including embryo development and the exogenous application of this phytohormone has been found to be necessary for the induction of the embryogenic response in plant explants that have been cultured in vitro.
Negative regulation of human growth hormone gene expression by insulin is dependent on hypoxia-inducible factor binding in primary non-tumor pituitary cells
