Abstract
In this Perspective, we have brought together available biological evidence on hydrazides as histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis) and as a distinct type of Zn-binding group (ZBG) to be reviewed for the first time in the literature. N-Alkyl hydrazides have transformed the field, providing innovative and practical chemical tools for selective and effective inhibition of specific histone deacetylase (HDAC) enzymes, in addition to the usual hydroxamic acid and o-aminoanilide ZBG-bearing HDACis. This has enabled efficient targeting of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and protozoal pathologies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are a class of zinc-dependent enzymes. They maintain acetylation homeostasis, with numerous biological functions and are associated with many diseases. HDAC3 strictly requires multi-subunit complex formation for activity. It is associated with the progression of numerous non-communicable diseases. Its widespread involvement in diseases makes it an epigenetic drug target. Preexisting HDAC3 inhibitors have many uses, highlighting the need for continued research in the discovery of HDAC3-selective inhibitors. AREA COVERED This review provides an overview of 24 patents published from 2010 to 2023, focusing on compounds that inhibit the HDAC3 isoenzyme. EXPERT OPINION HDAC3-selective inhibitors - pivotal for pharmacological applications, as single or combination therapies - are gaining traction as a strategy to move away from complications laden pan-HDAC inhibitors. Moreover, there is an unmet need for HDAC3 inhibitors with alternative zinc-binding groups (ZBGs) because some preexisting ZBGs have limitations related to toxicity and side effects. Difficulties in achieving HDAC3 selectivity may be due to isoform selectivity. However, advancements in computer-aided drug design and experimental data of HDAC3 3D co-crystallized models could lead to the discovery of novel HDAC3-selective inhibitors, which bear alternative ZBGs with balanced selectivity for HDAC3 and potency.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) catalyze the hydrolysis of acetyl-l-lysine side chains in histones and non-histones, which are key to epigenetic regulation in humans. Targeting HDACs has emerged as a promising strategy for treating various types of cancer, including myeloma and hematologic malignancies. At present, numerous small molecule inhibitors targeting HDACs are actively being investigated in clinical trials. Despite their potential efficacy in cancer treatment, HDAC inhibitors suffer from multi-directional selectivity and preclinical resistance issues. Hence, developing novel inhibitors based on cutting-edge medicinal chemistry techniques is essential to overcome these limitations and improve clinical outcomes. This manuscript presents an extensive overview of the properties and biological functions of HDACs in cancer, provides an overview of the current state of development and limitations of clinical HDAC inhibitors, and analyzes a range of innovative medicinal chemistry techniques that are applied. These techniques include selective inhibitors, dual-target inhibitors, proteolysis targeting chimeras, and protein-protein interaction inhibitors.

Abstract
Research into histone deacetylases (HDACs) has experienced a remarkable surge in recent years. These enzymes are key regulators of several fundamental biological processes, often associated with severe and potentially fatal diseases. Inhibition of their activity represents a promising therapeutic approach and a prospective strategy for the development of new therapeutic agents. A critical aspect of their inhibition is to achieve selectivity in terms of enzyme isoforms, which is essential to improve treatment efficacy while reducing undesirable pleiotropic effects. The development of computational chemistry tools, particularly molecular docking, is greatly enhancing the precision of designing molecules with inherent potential for specific activity. Therefore, it was considered necessary to review the molecular docking studies conducted on the major isozymes of the enzyme in order to identify the specific interactions associated with each selective HDAC inhibitor. In particular, the most critical isozymes of HDAC (1, 2, 3, 6, and 8) have been thoroughly investigated within the scope of this review.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are the major regulators of the balance of acetylation of histone and non-histone proteins. In contrast to other HDAC isoforms, HDAC6 is mainly involved in maintaining the acetylation balance of many non-histone proteins. Therefore, the overexpression of HDAC6 is associated with tumorigenesis, invasion, migration, survival, apoptosis and growth of various malignancies. As a result, HDAC6 is considered a promising target for cancer treatment. However, none of selective HDAC6 inhibitors are in clinical use, mainly because of the low efficacy and high concentrations used to show anticancer properties, which may lead to off-target effects. Therefore, HDAC6 inhibitors with dual-target capabilities represent a new trend in cancer treatment, aiming to overcome the above problems. In this review, we summarize the advances in tumor treatment with dual-target HDAC6 inhibitors.

Abstract
Histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) is an epigenetic regulator that involves gene expression, apoptosis, and cell cycle progression, and the overexpression of HDAC3 is accountable for several cancers, neurodegeneracy, and many other diseases. Therefore, HDAC3 emerged as a promising drug target for the novel drug design. Here, we carried out the pharmacophore modeling using 50 benzamide-based HDAC3 selective inhibitors and utilized it for PHASE ligand screening to retrieve the hits with similar pharmacophore features. The dataset inhibitors of best hypotheses used to build the 3D QSAR model and the generated 3D QSAR model resulted in good PLS statistics with a regression coefficient (R2) of 0.89, predictive coefficient (Q2) of 0.88, and Pearson-R factor of 0.94 indicating its excellent predictive ability. The hits retrieved from pharmacophore-based virtual screening were subjected to docking against HDAC3 for the identification of potential inhibitors. A total of 10 hitsM1 to M10 were ranked using their scoring functions and further subject to lead optimization. The Prime MM/GBSA, AutoDock binding free energies, and ADMET studies were implemented for the selection of lead candidates. The four ligand molecules M1, M2, M3, and M4 were identified as potential leads against HDAC3 after lead optimization. The top two leads M1 and M2 were subjected to MD simulations for their stability evaluation with HDAC3. The newly designed leads M11 and M12 were identified as HDAC3 potential inhibitors from MD simulations studies. Therefore, the outcomes of the present study could provide insights into the discovery of new potential HDAC3 inhibitors with improved selectivity and activity against a variety of cancers and neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
HDAC3 modulation shows promise for breast cancer, including triple-negative cases. Novel pyrazino-hydrazide-based HDAC3 inhibitors were designed and synthesized. Lead compound 4i exhibited potent HDAC3 inhibition (IC50 = 14 nM) with at least 121-fold selectivity. It demonstrated strong cytotoxicity against triple-negative breast cancer cells (IC50: 0.55 μM for 4T1, 0.74 μM for MDA-MB-231) with least normal cell toxicity. Metabolically stable 4i displayed a superior pharmacokinetic profile. A dose-dependent therapeutic efficacy of 4i was observed in a tumor-bearing mouse model. The biomarker analysis with tumor tissues displayed enhanced acetylation on Ac-H3K9, Ac-H3K27, and Ac-H4K12 compared to Ac-tubulin and Ac-SMC3 indicating HDAC3 selectivity of 4i in vivo. The immunoblotting study with tumor tissue showed upregulation of apoptotic proteins caspase-3, caspase-7, and cytochrome c and the downregulation of proliferation markers Bcl-2, CD44, EGFR, and Ki-67. Compound 4i represents a promising candidate for targeted breast cancer therapy, particularly for cases with triple-negative breast cancer.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are a class of zinc (Zn)-dependent metalloenzymes that are responsible for epigenetic modifications. HDACs are largely associated with histone proteins that regulate gene expression at the DNA level. This tight regulation is controlled by acetylation [via histone acetyl transferases (HATs)] and deacetylation (via HDACs) of histone and non-histone proteins that alter the coiling state of DNA, thus impacting gene expression as a downstream effect. For the last two decades, HDACs have been studied extensively and indicated in a range of diseases where HDAC dysregulation has been strongly correlated with disease emergence and progression-most prominently, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, HIV, and inflammatory diseases. The involvement of HDACs as regulators in these biochemical pathways established them as an attractive therapeutic target. This review summarizes the drug development efforts exerted to create HDAC inhibitors (HDACis), specifically class I HDACs, with a focus on the medicinal chemistry, structural design, and pharmacology aspects of these inhibitors.

Abstract
HDAC8 catalyzes the deacetylation of both histones and nonhistone proteins. The abnormal expression of HDAC8 is associated with various pathological conditions causing cancer and other diseases like myopathies, Cornelia de Lange syndrome, renal fibrosis, and viral and parasitic infections. The substrates of HDAC8 are involved in diverse molecular mechanisms of cancer such as cell proliferation, invasion, metastasis and drug resistance. Based on the crystal structures and the key residues at the active site, HDAC8 inhibitors have been designed along the canonical pharmacophore. This article details the importance, recent advancements, and the structural and functional aspects of HDAC8 with special emphasis on the medicinal chemistry aspect of HDAC8 inhibitors that will help in developing novel epigenetic therapeutics.

Abstract
It has been recently revealed that Histone Deacetylase (HDAC) 3, a unique member of the HDACs family, can trigger and progress cancers by alternation in genes expression and proteins activity. Epigenetic modifications by HDACs have been studied well in various cancer cells. Recent studies have focused on the HDAC enzymes as a possible target in cancer therapy. There are significant documents on upregulation of HDAC3 in breast cancer (BC) cells which suggest an oncogenic role for this enzyme. Interestingly, some studies showed that HDAC3 inhibition could be considered as a promising target in breast cancer therapy, and thus far, several inhibitors from different nature have been introduced. In this review, we discussed the function and highlight the existing inhibitors of HDAC3 in BC pathogenesis and therapy.

Abstract
Epigentic enzymes histone deacetylases (HDACs) catalyze the removal of acetyl groups from the ε-N-acetylated lysine residues of various protein substrates including both histone and non-histone proteins. Different HDACs have distinct biological functions and are recruited to specific regions of the genome. Due to their important biological functions, HDACs have been validated in clinics for anticancer therapy, and are being explored for potential treatment of several other diseases such as Alzheimer disease (AD), metabolic disease, viral infection, and multiple sclerosis, etc. Besides five approved drugs, there are more than thirty HDACs inhibitors currently being investigated in clinical trials. Centering on the advances of drug discovery programs in this field since 2020, this review discusses HDACs inhibitors from the aspects of the structure-based rational design, isoform selectivity, pharmacology, and toxicology of the compounds of interest. The hope is to provide the medicinal chemistry community with up-to-date information and to accelerate the drug discovery programs in this area.

Design, synthesis and binding mode of interaction of novel small molecule o-hydroxy benzamides as HDAC3-selective inhibitors with promising antitumor effects in 4T1-Luc breast cancer xenograft model. Bioorg Chem 2021; 117:105446. [PMID: 34717237 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioorg.2021.105446] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2021] [Accepted: 10/18/2021] [Indexed: 01/24/2023]
Abstract
Histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) is one of the most promising targets to develop anticancer therapeutics. In continuation of our quest for selective HDAC3 inhibitors, a series of small molecules having o-hydroxy benzamide as the novel zinc binding group (ZBG) has been introduced for the first time that can be able to produce good HDAC3-selectivity over other HDACs. The most promising HDAC3 inhibitors, 11a and 12b, displayed promising in vitro anticancer activities with less toxicity to normal kidney cells. These compounds significantly upregulate histone acetylation and induce apoptosis with a G2/M phase arrest in B16F10 cells. Compound 11a exhibited potent antitumor efficacy in 4T1-Luc breast cancer xenograft mouse model in female Balb/c mice. It also showed significant tumor growth suppression with no general toxicity and extended survival rates post-tumor resection. It significantly induced higher ROS generation, leading to apoptosis. No considerable toxicity was noticed in major organs isolated from the compound 11a-treated mice. Compound 11a also induced the upregulation of acH3K9, acH4K12, caspase-3 and caspase-7 as analyzed by immunoblotting with treated tumor tissue. Overall, HDAC3 selective inhibitor 11a might be a potential lead for the clinical translation as an emerging drug candidate.
