From: Both HDAC5 and HDAC6 are required for the proliferation and metastasis of melanoma cells
HDAC5 and HDAC6 were up-regulated in melanoma tissues. a Total HDAC5 or HDAC6 protein levels were are increased in melanoma tissues compared to adjacent tissues. The protein levels of HDAC5 and HDAC6 in 8 pairs of melanoma and adjacent normal tissues were analyzed by western blotting. b and c Immunohistochemical stainings of HDAC5 and HDAC6 proteins in tumor and adjacent normal tissues. One example is shown in b, and the statistical analysis of all samples is shown in c. Scale bars are 50 mm. The intensities of the total HDAC5 (upper panel) and HDAC6 (down lower panel) proteins were quantified using the Motic Images Advanced software, followed by statistical analysis. A total of 33 tumor tissues and 31 adjacent normal skin tissues were analyzed. The mean value of multiple samples and standard deviation are presented. ***p <0.001
