Abstract:
Background: Histone deacetylases (HDACs) play a vital role in the epigenetic regulation of transcription and expression. HDAC1 overexpression is seen in many cancers. Methodology: The authors synthesized and evaluated 27 novel coumarin-based amide derivatives for HDAC1 inhibitory activity. The compounds were screened at the US National Cancer Institute, and 5k and 5u were selected for five-dose assays. Compound 5k showed GI 50 values of 0.294 and 0.264 μM against MOLT-4 and LOX-IMVI, whereas 5u had GI 50 values of 0.189 and 0.263 μM, respectively. Both derivatives showed better activity than entinostat and suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid. Compound 5k exhibited an IC 50 value of 1.00 μM on ACHN cells. Conclusion: Coumarin derivatives exhibited promising HDAC1 inhibitory potential and warrant future development as anticancer agents.
