Abstract
Histone deacetylase inhibitors not only possess favorable effects on modulating tumor microenvironment and host immune cells but also can reactivate the genes silenced due to deacetylation and chromatin condensation. Hydroxamic acid hybrids as promising histone deacetylase inhibitors have the potential to address drug resistance and reduce severe side effects associated with a single drug molecule due to their capacity to simultaneously modulate multiple targets in cancer cells. Accordingly, rational design of hydroxamic acid hybrids may provide valuable therapeutic interventions for the treatment of breast cancer. This review aimed to provide insights into the in vitro and in vivo anti-breast cancer therapeutic potential of hydroxamic acid hybrids, together with their mechanisms of action and structure-activity relationships, covering articles published from 2020 to the present.
期刊介绍:
Future Medicinal Chemistry offers a forum for the rapid publication of original research and critical reviews of the latest milestones in the field. Strong emphasis is placed on ensuring that the journal stimulates awareness of issues that are anticipated to play an increasingly central role in influencing the future direction of pharmaceutical chemistry. Where relevant, contributions are also actively encouraged on areas as diverse as biotechnology, enzymology, green chemistry, genomics, immunology, materials science, neglected diseases and orphan drugs, pharmacogenomics, proteomics and toxicology.
