['The effect of histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACIs) and DNA methyltransferase inhibitors (DNMTIs) on proliferation of endometrial cancer (EC) cells in vitro and in vivo was investigated.', 'Changes in methylation of the CDH1 promoter in HDACI- and DNMTI-treated HEC-1-B and RL-952 EC cells were detected. Nude mice with xenografted implants of human EC HEC-1-B cells were treated with valproic acid (VPA) and decitabine (DAC) and evaluated for tumor growth, CDH1 and Bcl-2 mRNA levels.', 'DAC, VPA and suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) inhibited proliferation, induced cell cycle arrest and enhanced the apoptotic index in both cell lines, DAC, VPA and SAHA upregulated E-cadherin mRNA and protein levels and downregulated Bcl-2 mRNA levels in vitro. DAC and VPA inhibited tumor growth, upregulated CDH1 mRNA and downregulated Bcl-2 mRNA levels in vivo.'] Do dNMT inhibitors and HDAC inhibitors regulate E-cadherin and Bcl-2 expression in endometrial carcinoma in vitro and in vivo?
