The present invention concerns methods and compositions involving inhibitors and of RAD51, a protein involved in homologous recombination. In some embodiments, there are methods for sensitizing cells to the effects of DNA damaging agents, which can have particular applications for cancer patients. In some embodiments of the invention, the RAD51 inhibitor is a small molecule that directly affects RAD51 activity, such as its ability to promote filament formation.

Methods and compositions involving RAD51 inhibitors

Histone deacetylases inhibitors (HDACIs) and compositions containing the same are disclosed. Methods of treating diseases and conditions wherein inhibition of HDAC provides a benefit, like a cancer, a neurodegenerative disorder, a peripheral neuropathy, a neurological disease, traumatic brain injury, stroke, hypertension, malaria, an autoimmune disease, autism, autism spectrum disorders, and inflammation, also are disclosed.
