Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to screening methods that make use of a histone deacetylase interacting with a myosin phosphatase for the identification of novel therapeutics useful for inhibiting or inducing apoptosis and for the treatment of pathological conditions, such as smooth muscle cell disorder, cardiac hypertrophy or asthma. Also disclosed are methods for inhibiting or inducing apoptosis and for treatment of a pathological condition by administering to a mammal a therapeutically effective amount of a compound that inhibits or increases the dephosphorylation of a histone deacetylase by a myosin phosphatase or inhibits or increases the binding of a histone deacetylase to a myosin phosphatase.
