ITSA-1 (50 μM; A549 cells) treatment serves to revert the TSA-arrested population to a normal cell cycle distribution. ITSA-1 is also able to effect cell cycle rescue over longer duration[1].
ITSA-1 (50 μM; 5 hours; A549 cells) treatment reduces the number of apoptosis in TSA-treated cells[1].
ITSA-1 (50 μM; 2 hours; A549 and murine ES cells cells) treatment suppresses TSA-induced histone acetylation. Importantly, suppression of acetylation levels is only observable when ITSA1 is added concurrent with or post TSA treatment[1].
ITSA-1 (50 μM; 30 minutes; murine ES cells cells) suppresses TSA-activated transcription in murine ES cells[1].
