Synthesis and Chemo-Sensitizing Properties of New Monoterpene-Containing Inhibitors of Histone Deacetylases: Hydroxamic Acids and Mercaptoacetamides
摘要
Abstract
A number of histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) containing an adamantane backbone in the CAP group, as well as hydroxamate or mercaptoacetamide functions as zinc-binding fragments connected via a monoterpene linker, were synthesized. It was found that, being HDAC inhibitors, the synthesized compounds significantly enhance the cytotoxic activity of cisplatin against human cervical carcinoma cells HeLa.
