Targeting tumor angiogenesis with histone deacetylase inhibitors: the hydroxamic acid derivative LBH589.

PURPOSE: Angiogenesis is required for tumor progression and represents a rational target for therapeutic intervention. Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors have been shown to have activity against various tumor cell types by inhibiting proliferation and inducing apoptosis both in vitro and in vivo. HDAC inhibitors have also been reported to inhibit angiogenesis. The goal of this study was to characterize the antiangiogenic and antitumor activity of a recently developed HDAC inhibitor, the hydroxamic derivative LBH589. MATERIALS AND METHODS: To evaluate the antiangiogenesis activity of LBH589, we did cell cycle analysis, cell proliferation, tube formation, invasion assays in vitro, and Matrigel plug assay in vivo. To determine the antitumor activity of LBH589, we established human prostate carcinoma cell PC-3 xenografts in vivo. To evaluate the effect of LBH589 on endothelial signaling pathways, gene expression, and protein acetylation, we did Western blots and reverse transcription-PCR in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). Immunohistochemical analysis was done to evaluate new blood vessel formation in vivo. RESULTS: LBH589 induced acetylation of histone H3 and alpha-tubulin protein in HUVECs. Histone and nonhistone protein acetylation correlated with induction of G(2)-M cell cycle arrest, inhibition of HUVEC proliferation, and viability. Noncytotoxic concentrations of LBH589 inhibited endothelial tube formation, Matrigel invasion, AKT, extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 phosphorylation, and chemokine receptor CXCR4 expression. In vivo dosing of mice with LBH589 (10 mg/kg/d) reduced angiogenesis and PC-3 tumor growth. CONCLUSION: This study provides evidence that LBH589 induces a wide range of effects on endothelial cells that lead to inhibition of tumor angiogenesis. These results support the role of HDAC inhibitors as a therapeutic strategy to target both the tumor and endothelial compartment and warrant the clinical development of these agents in combination with angiogenesis inhibitors.

Discovery of selective hydroxamic acid inhibitors of tumor necrosis factor-alpha converting enzyme.

Modification of the P(1)' substituent of macrocyclic matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitors provided compounds that are selective for inhibition of tumor necrosis factor-alpha converting enzyme (TACE) over MMP-1 and MMP-2. Several analogues potently inhibited the release of TNF-alpha in a THP-1 cellular assay. Compounds containing a trimethoxyphenyl group in the P(1)' substituent demonstrated TACE selectivity across several series of hydroxamate-based inhibitors.

DNA strand scissions by hydroxamic acids in the presence of Cu(II) ion under aerobic conditions.

Carbazolyloxyacetohydroxamic acid (1), 9,9'-decamethylene-bis-carbazolyloxyacetohydroxamic acid (2), benzohydroxamic acid (3), and acetohydroxamic acid (4) without reducing agent under aerobic conditions induced DNA strand scissions with increasing activities in the order of 4 > 3 > 2 > 1. The inhibition experiments indicated that hydrogen peroxide and superoxide participated in the reactions, but hydroxyl radical or singlet oxygen did not.
