Notes: 3-Deazaneplanocin A is a cyclopentenyl analog of 3-deazaadenosine, originally synthesized as an inhibitor of S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine hydrolase.{18484} It has been shown to deplete EZH2 levels and to inhibit trimethylation of lysine 27 on histone H3 in cultured human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) HL-60 and OCI-AML3 cells and in primary AML cells in a dose-dependent manner (0.2-1 μM).{18478} 3-Deazaneplanocin A treatment of cultured human AML cells induces increased expression of the cell-cycle regulators p21, p27, and FBXO32, leading to cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.{18478} When used in combination with the pan-histone deacetylase inhibitor panobinostat (10 mg/kg), 3-deazaneplanocin A’s (1 mg/kg) antileukemic effects are synergistically enhanced in mice implanted with AML cells.{18478,18398}
