Histone deacetylases (HDACs) has proved to be promising target for the development of antitumor drugs. In this study, we reported the design and synthesis of a class of novel hydroxamate-based bis-substituted aromatic amide HDAC inhibitors with 1,2,4-oxadiazole core. Most newly synthesized compounds displayed excellent HDAC1 inhibitory effects and significant anti-proliferative activities. Among them, compounds 11a and 11c increased acetylation of histone H3 and H4 in dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, 11a and 11c remarkably induced apoptosis in HepG2 cancer cells. Finally, the high potency of compound 11a was rationalized by molecular docking studies.

含有1,2,4-恶二唑部分核心并具有抗肿瘤活性的基于异羟肟酸酯的组蛋白脱乙酰基酶抑制剂的开发
组蛋白脱乙酰基酶(HDAC)已被证明是抗肿瘤药物开发的有希望的目标。在这项研究中,我们报道了具有1,2,4-恶二唑核心的一类新型基于异羟肟酸酯的双取代芳族酰胺HDAC抑制剂的设计和合成。大多数新合成的化合物显示出出色的HDAC1抑制作用和显着的抗增殖活性。其中,化合物11a和11c以剂量依赖性方式增加组蛋白H3和H4的乙酰化。此外,11a和11c显着诱导了HepG2癌细胞的凋亡。最后,化合物11a的高效能通过分子对接研究得以合理化。
