Abstract

Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are a class of epigenetic modulators with complex functions in histone post-translational modifications and are well known targets for antineoplastic drugs. We have previously developed a series of bisthiazole-based hydroxamic acids as novel potent HDAC inhibitors. In the present work, a new series of bisthiazole-based compounds with different zinc binding groups (ZBGs) have been designed and synthesized. Among them is compound 7, containing a trifluoromethyl ketone as the ZBG, which displays potent inhibitory activity towards human HDACs and improved antiproliferative activity in several cancer cell lines.
