Class I/IIb-Selective HDAC Inhibitor Exhibits Oral Bioavailability and Therapeutic Efficacy in Acute Myeloid Leukemia
摘要:
The HDAC inhibitor 4-tert-butyl-N-(4-(hydroxycarbamoyl)phenyl)benzamide (AES-350, 51) was identified as a promising preclinical candidate for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), an aggressive malignancy with a meagre 24% 5-year survival rate. Through screening of low-molecular-weight analogues derived from the previously discovered novel HDAC inhibitor, AES-135, compound 51 demonstrated greater HDAC isoform selectivity, higher cytotoxicity in MV4-11 cells, an improved therapeutic window, and more efficient absorption through cellular and lipid membranes. Compound 51 also demonstrated improved oral bioavailability compared to SAHA in mouse models. A broad spectrum of experiments, including FACS, ELISA, and Western blotting, were performed to support our hypothesis that 51 dose-dependently triggers apoptosis in AML cells through HDAC inhibition.

The astacinproteasesmeprinα and β are emerging drug targets for treatment of disorders such as kidney failure, fibrosis or inflammatory bowel disease. However, there are only few inhibitors of both proteases reported to date. Starting from NNGH as lead structure, a detailed elaboration of the structure-activity relationship of meprin β inhibitors was performed, leading to compounds with activities
N-Arylsulfonyl-based MMPs inhibitors (MMPIs) are among the most prominent inhibitors possessing nanomolar affinity. However, their poor bioavailability remains critical for the drug development of this family of molecules. The structural analysis of the complex of NNGH (the most representative member of the family) with MMP-12 provided us with the basis to effectively design simple NNGH analogues with enhanced solubility in water. Following this approach, the sec-butyl residue, not directly involved in the binding with MMP, has been replaced with hydrophilic residues thus yielding new potent inhibitors soluble in water.
