2-Aroylindoles and 2-Aroylbenzofurans with N- Hydroxyacrylamide Substructures as a Novel Series of Rationally Designed Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors
11 Aug 2007
Abstract excerpt
Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors are considered to be drugs for targeted cancer therapy and second-generation HDIs are currently being tested in clinical trials. Here, we report on the synthesis and biological evaluation of a novel HDAC inhibitor scaffold with the hydroxamate Zn(2+) complexing headgroup, selected from the 2-aroylindol motif. Inhibition of nuclear extract HDAC and recombinant HDAC 1 as well...
