Notes: Droxinostat is an inhibitor of histone deacetylase (HDAC) 3, 6, and 8 (IC50s = 16.9, 2.47, and 1.46 μM, respectively).{38617} It is selective for HDAC3, 6, and 8 over HDAC1, 2, 7, 9, and 10 (IC50s = >20 μM). Droxinostat increases histone H3 and H4 acetylation in PPC-1 prostate, OVCAR3 ovarian, U937 leukemia, HT-29 colon, and T47D breast cancer cells. It also inhibits proliferation and colony formation of SMMC-7721 and HepG2 hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines via activation of mitochondrial apoptosis and reduction of cellular FLICE-inhibitory protein (c-FLIP).{38618}
