Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a novel heterocyclic compound having the ability to inhibit histone deacetylase and its medical use, and in particular to an HDAC6 inhibitor which is more selective and more effective against HDAC6 among histone deacetylases (HDACs), and the treatment of histone deacetylase-related diseases. Background Art

[0002] Histone deacetylase (HDAC) plays an important role in gene expression and differentiation as well as maintaining cell homeostasis by promoting the process of removing acetyl groups from acetylated 3-aminolysine residues on histones and non-histone proteins. HDAC includes four classes and 18 subtypes, which are divided into class I (HDAC1, 2, 3 and 8), class II (HDAC4, 5, 7, 9, 6 and 10), class III (SIRT1-7) and class IV (HDAC11). HDAC belongs to class I, II and IV. 2+ Class I HDACs are nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)-dependent enzymes, whereas class III HDACs are characterized as nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)-dependent enzymes.

[0003] Among these HDACs, HDAC6 consists of 1215 amino acid residues and contains CD1 and CD2 catalytic domains at the N-terminus and central regions, respectively. The C-terminus has a zinc finger ubiquitin binding domain that promotes the interaction between the ubiquitin proteasome and the aggresome pathway. In addition to deacetylation of histones, HDAC6 also uses non-histone proteins such as α-tubulin, cortactin, tau, peroxidase, and heat shock protein (HSP90) as substrates to induce deacetylation.

[0004] Numerous reports have shown that HDAC6 is associated with a variety of physiological processes such as cell migration, autophagy, endocytosis, protein transport, apoptosis, and degradation, and due to these important physiological functions, HDAC6 is becoming an effective therapeutic target for a variety of human diseases (e.g., cancer, inflammation, and immune dysfunction).

[0005] To date, various types of HDAC inhibitors have been studied and developed, and five types of FDA-approved HDAC inhibitory anticancer drugs are in use. However, since these drugs are non-selective HDAC inhibitors, there is a need to develop selective inhibitors that target specific isoforms and thus have reduced side effects. Since there are great similarities between HDAC isoforms, it is not easy to discover isoform-selective inhibitors, but there is an urgent need to develop more selective and more effective HDAC6 inhibitors.
