Abstract
Description
[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese patent application 2021102612657, filed on March 10, 2021. The entire contents of the aforementioned Chinese patent application are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0002] This invention relates to the field of medicinal chemistry, and more specifically, to a class of histone deacetylase inhibitors, their preparation methods, and the uses of such compounds. Background Technology
[0003] Histones are essential components of eukaryotic chromosomes. The N-terminus of histones can be modified post-translationally, altering chromatin structure and thus affecting gene transcription. One type of modification is the reversible acetylation and deacetylation of lysine residues at the histone tail. Histone acetylation (HAT) acetylates histones, weakening the binding of DNA to histones, promoting the binding of transcription factors to promoters, and upregulating gene expression. Conversely, histone deacetylase (HDAC) binds histones more tightly to DNA, inhibiting gene transcription. Besides acetylation, the N-terminus of histones can also be phosphorylated, methylated, and ADP-ribosylated, further altering chromatin structure and regulating gene expression.
[0004] Excessive / abnormal activation of HDAC leads to structural changes in chromatin, inhibits transcription, and interferes with normal cell differentiation, resulting in tumors and other proliferative diseases. Therefore, inhibiting HDAC activity may be an effective method for treating tumors and other proliferative diseases.
[0005] Organic hydroxamic acids are a crucial class of pan-inhibitors of HDACs. The hydroxamic acid group effectively chelates with zinc ions at the active site of HDACs and forms hydrogen bonds with surrounding residues. However, these inhibitors have significant drawbacks. First, due to their low selectivity, adverse reactions such as bone marrow suppression, diarrhea, and cardiac impairment often occur during clinical application. Second, because hydroxamic acids are rapidly glycosylated or sulfated in vivo, leading to the inactivation of HDAC inhibitors, high doses are required clinically. Therefore, there is a need to develop a class of HDAC inhibitors with higher selectivity and stronger inhibitory activity. Summary of the Invention
