We have previously described the synthesis and evaluation of 3,5-diamino-1,2,4-triazole analogues as inhibitors of the flavin-dependent histone demethylase LSD1. These compounds are potent inhibitors of LSD1 without activity against monoamine oxidases A and B, and promote the elevation of H3K4me2 levels in tumor cells <i>in vitro</i>. We now report that the cytotoxicity of these analogues in pancreatic tumor cells correlates with the overexpression of LSD1 in each tumor type. In addition, we sho ...[more]
