Synthesis and Pharmacological Evaluation of Selective Histone Deacetylase 6 Inhibitors in Melanoma Models.


ABSTRACT: Only a handful of therapies offer significant improvement in the overall survival in cases of melanoma, a cancer whose incidence has continued to rise in the past 30 years. In our effort to identify potent and isoform-selective histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors as a therapeutic approach to melanoma, a series of new HDAC6 inhibitors based on the nexturastat A scaffold were prepared. The new analogues 4d, 4e, and 7b bearing added hydrophilic substituents, so as to establish additional hydrogen bonding on the rim of the HDAC6 catalytic pocket, exhibit improved potency against HDAC6 and retain selectivity over HDAC1. Compound 4d exhibits antiproliferative effects on several types of melanoma and lymphoma cells. Further studies indicates that 4d selectively increases acetylated tubulin levels in vitro and elicits an immune response through down-regulating cytokine IL-10. A preliminary in vivo efficacy study indicates that 4d possesses improved capability to inhibit melanoma tumor growth and that this effect is based on the regulation of inflammatory and immune responses.
