Histones play a crucial role in regulating gene expression, and this regulatory mechanism is central to many aspects of brain development, function, and plasticity.

-Histone Acetylation: Often associated with active gene transcription. Enzymes known as histone acetyltransferases (HATs) add acetyl groups that reduce the positive charge on histones, weakening their interaction with the negatively charged DNA and thereby promoting gene expression.
-Histone Methylation: Depending on the specific amino acid residue and the number of methyl groups added, histone methylation can either activate or repress transcription. For instance, methylation on lysine 4 of histone H3 (H3K4me) is commonly linked to gene activation, whereas methylation on lysine 9 (H3K9me) is typically associated with gene repression.

4981- ATV,    Crosstalk between Statins and Cancer Prevention and Therapy: An Update
Apoptosis↑, The anti-tumor activity of statins is largely related to their ability to induce apoptosis by targeting cancer cells with high selectivity.
selectivity↑,
eff↑, Combining statins with histone deacetylase inhibitors can induce a synergistic anticancer effect.
HMG-CoA↓, 3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors, known as statins, are a commonly used and well-tolerated class of drugs used in lipid disorders,
*cardioP↑, Their effectiveness in preventing the development of cardiovascular diseases makes statins one of the most widely used drugs
OS↑, On the other hand, improved survival in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, colon cancer or prostate cancer is visible after the use of any statin
IL1β↓, statins inhibit the synthesis of cytokines, including interleukin (IL-) IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8 and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α)
IL6↓,
