Background: Therapeutic options for advanced cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) are limited and ineffective due to the largely incomplete understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of this deadly tumor. So that, we planned to investigate epigenetic regulation of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in cholangiocarcinoma cell line by applying Suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA). We studied the effect of SAHA on cell proliferation, colony forming, migration and protein level of E-cadherin (E-cad) as an epithelial EMT marker, N-cadherin (N-cad) and Vimentin (Vim), as a mesenchymal markers of EMT, in human CCA cell line.
