Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors in Cancer Therapy: Latest Developments, Trends and Medicinal Chemistry Perspective

Abstract: Regulation of gene expression is mediated by several mechanisms such as DNA methylation, ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling, and post-translational modifications of histones. The latter mechanism includes dynamic acetylation and deacetylation of epsilon-amino groups of lysine residues present in the tail of the core histones. Enzymes responsible for the reversible acetylation/deacetylation processes are histone acetyltransferases (HATs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs), respectively. There are three mammalian … Show more

“…So far, at least 80 clinical trials are under way to test >11 different HDAC inhibitory agents targeted toward class I and II HDACs against both hematological and solid malignancies (Tan et al 2010). The clinical activity of HDACis is thought to be due to the more open chromatin structure and potential reactivation of aberrantly suppressed genes, leading to growth arrest, cell differentiation, and apoptosis of tumor cells (Vigushin and Coombes 2002;Balakin et al 2007;Mottet and Castronovo 2008;Shankar and Srivastava 2008;Witt et al 2009;Tan et al 2010). These inhibitors also influence the DNA damage response through acetylation of key DNA repair and checkpoint proteins (Choudhary et al 2009;Robert et al 2011).…”
