(2-Amino-phenyl)-amides of ω-substituted alkanoic acids as new histone deacetylase inhibitors
A variety of ω-substituted alkanoic acid (2-amino-phenyl)-amides were designed and synthesized. These compounds were shown to inhibit recombinant human histone deacetylases (HDACs) with IC 50 values in the low micromolar range and induce hyperacetylation of histones in whole cells. They induced expr...

Summary: | A variety of ω-substituted alkanoic acid (2-amino-phenyl)-amides were designed and synthesized. These compounds were shown to inhibit recombinant human histone deacetylases (HDACs) with IC
50 values in the low micromolar range and induce hyperacetylation of histones in whole cells. They induced expression of p21WAF1/Cip1 and caused cell-cycle arrest in human cancer cells. Compounds in this class showed efficacy in human tumor xenograft models.
A series of benzamides (
9 and
10) was synthesized and their biological evaluation as HDAC inhibitor is reported. |
