Synthesis and biological evaluation of 1-arylsulfonyl-5-(N-hydroxyacrylamide) indoles as potent histone deacetylase inhibitors with antitumor activity in vivo
A series of 1-arylsulfonyl-5-(N-hydroxyacrylamide) indoles has been identified as a new class of histone deacetylase inhibitors. Compounds 8, 11, 12, 13, and 14 demonstrated stronger antiproliferative activities than 1 (SAHA) with GI50 values ranging from 0.36 to 1.21 μM against Hep3B, MDA-MB-231, PC-3, and A549 human cancer cell lines. Lead compound 8 showed remarkable HDAC 1, 2, and 6 isoenzymes inhibitory activities with ...
