Abstract

A series of bisthiazole-based hydroxamic acids as novel potent HDAC inhibitors was developed during our previous work. In the present work, a new series of highly potent bisthiazole-based compounds were designed and synthesized. Among the prepared compounds, compound H13, which contains an α-(S)-methyl-substituted benzyl group, displays potent inhibitory activity toward human HDACs and several Cancer cells lines. Compound H13 has a favorable PK profile and high tissue distribution specificity in the colon, as well as good efficacy in the AOM-DSS mouse model for colitis-associated colonic tumorigenesis.
