Patent number: 7799803Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel class of hydroxamic acid derivatives having at least two aryl containing groups, at least one of which is a quinolinyl, isoquinolinyl or benzyl moiety, linked to the hydroxamic acid group through a methylene chain. The hydroxamic acid compounds can be used to treat cancer, for example, brain cancer. The hydroxamic acid compounds can also inhibit histone deacetylase and are suitable for use in selectively inducing terminal differentiation, and arresting cell growth and/or apoptosis of neoplastic cells, thereby inhibiting proliferation of such cells. Thus, the compounds of the present are useful in treating a patient having a tumor characterized by proliferation of neoplastic cells. The compounds of the invention are also useful in the prevention and treatment of TRX-mediated diseases, such as autoimmune, allergic and inflammatory diseases, and in the prevention and/or treatment of diseases of the central nervous system (CNS), such as neurodegenerative diseases.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2007Date of Patent: September 21, 2010Assignees: The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, Sloan-Kettering Institute for Cancer ResearchInventors: Ronald Breslow, Thomas A.

Publication number: 20070100559Abstract: The present invention provides three-dimensional structural information from the hyperthermophilic bacterium Aquifex aeolicus which is a histone deacetylase-like protein (HDLP). HDLP shares 35.2% amino acid sequence identity with human histone deacetylase (HDAC1). The present invention further provides three-dimensional structural information of HDLP bound by inhibitor molecules. The three-dimensional structural information of the present invention is useful to design, isolate and screen deacetylase inhibitor compounds capable of inhibiting HDLP, HDAC family members and HDLP-related molecules. The invention also relates to nucleic acids encoding a mutant HDLP which facilitates the determination of the three-dimensional structure of HDLP in the presence of a zinc atom.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 16, 2006Publication date: May 3, 2007Inventors: Nikola Pavletich, Michael Finnin, Jill Donigian, Victoria Richon, Richard Rifkind, Paul Marks, Ronald Breslow
