RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: The global outbreak of COVID-19 caused by the SARS-CoV-2 has led to millions of deaths. This unanticipated emergency has prompted virologists across the globe to delve deeper into the intricate dynamicity of the host-virus interface with an aim to identify antiviral targets and elucidate host and viral determinants of severe disease. AIM: The present study was undertaken to analyse the role of histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) in regulating SARS-CoV-2 infection. RESULTS: Gradual increase in HDAC6 expression was observed in different SARS-CoV-2-permissive cell lines following SARS-CoV-2 infection. The SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein (N protein) was identified as the primary viral factor responsible for upregulating HDAC6 expression. Downregulation of HDAC6 using shRNA or a specific inhibitor tubacin resulted in reduced viral replication suggesting proviral role of its deacetylase activity. Further investigations uncovered the interaction of HDAC6 with stress granule protein G3BP1 and N protein during infection. HDAC6-mediated deacetylation of SARS-CoV-2 N protein was found to be crucial for its association with G3BP1. CONCLUSION: This study provides valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the disruption of cytoplasmic stress granules during SARS-CoV-2 infection and highlights the significance of HDAC6 in the process.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a common gastrointestinal problem characterized by the mucosal injury primarily affecting the large intestine. Currently available therapies are not satisfactory as evidenced by high relapse rate and adverse effects. In this study we aimed to develop an effective drug delivery system using reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive thioketal nanoparticles (TKNP), to deliver tubastatin A, a potent HDAC6 inhibitor, to the inflamed colon in mice with ulcerative colitis (UC). TKNPs were synthesized by step-growth polymerization from an acetal exchange reaction while TUBA-TKNP was prepared using the single emulsion solvent evaporation technique. Our developed nanoparticle showed release of tubastatin A only in presence of ROS which is found to be highly present at the site of inflamed colon. Oral administration of TUBA-TKNP resulted in the higher accumulation of tubastatin A at the inflamed colon site and decreased the inflammation as evidenced by reduced infiltration of immune cells and decreased level of pro-inflammatory cytokines in TUBA-TKNP treated mice. In summary, our results show the successful localization of tubastatin A at the site of colon inflammation through TUBA-TKNP delivery, as well as resolution of clinical features of UC in mice.
RESUMEN
Aim: To determine the mechanism of Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in bone healing. Materials & methods: Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and inflammatory-factor levels were detected using ELISA. Osteogenic differentiation was assessed using Alizarin red staining technique. The interaction between histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) and A-kinase anchoring protein 12 (AKAP12) was investigated through Co- immunoprecipitation. Results: CGRP treatment promoted rat bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) M2 polarization. CGRP facilitated osteogenic differentiation by enhancing M2 polarization of BMDMs. Mechanistically, CGRP promoted AKAP12 acetylation to activate the extracellular regulated protein kinases pathway by HDAC6 inhibition. Conclusion: CGRP promoted M2 polarization of rat BMDMs and facilitated osteogenic differentiation through the HDAC6/AKAP12/extracellular regulated protein kinases signaling pathway, thereby promoting bone healing.

RESUMEN
Transmembrane-4 L-six family member-1 (TM4SF1) is an atypical tetraspanin that is highly and selectively expressed in proliferating endothelial cells and plays an essential role in blood vessel development. TM4SF1 forms clusters on the cell surface called TMED (TM4SF1-enriched microdomains) and recruits other proteins that internalize along with TM4SF1 via microtubules to intracellular locations including the nucleus. We report here that tumor growth and wound healing are inhibited in Tm4sf1-heterozygous mice. Investigating the mechanisms of TM4SF1 activity, we show that 12 out of 18 signaling molecules examined are recruited to TMED on the surface of cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and internalize along with TMED; notable among them are PLCγ and HDAC6. When TM4SF1 is knocked down in HUVEC, microtubules are heavily acetylated despite normal levels of HDAC6 protein, and, despite normal levels of VEGFR2, are unable to proliferate. Together, our studies indicate that pathological angiogenesis is inhibited when levels of TM4SF1 are reduced as in Tm4sf1-heterozygous mice; a likely mechanism is that TM4SF1 regulates the intracellular distribution of signaling molecules necessary for endothelial cell proliferation and migration.
RESUMEN
Brain injury after cardiac arrest (CA) and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is the leading cause of neurological dysfunction and death. This study aimed to explore the mechanism of histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) in neurofunctional recovery following CA/CPR in rats. A rat model was established by CA/CPR treatment. Adenovirus-packaged sh-HDAC6 was injected into the tail vein. To evaluate the neurofunction of rats, survival time, neurofunctional scores, serum NSE/S100B, and brain water content were measured and Morris water maze test was performed. HDAC6, microRNA (miR)-138-5p, Nod-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3), and pyroptotic factor levels were determined by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction or Western blot assay. HDAC6 and H3K9ac enrichment on miR-138-5p promoter were examined by chromatin immunoprecipitation. miR-138-5p-NLRP3 binding was analyzed by dual-luciferase reporter assay. NLRP3 inflammasome was activated with nigericin sodium salt. After CPR treatment, HDAC6 was highly expressed, while miR-138-5p was downregulated. HDAC6 downregulation improved neurofunction and reduced pyroptosis. HDAC6 enrichment on the miR-138-5p promoter deacetylated H3K9ac, inhibiting miR-138-5p, and promoting NLRP3-mediated pyroptosis. Downregulating miR-138-5p partially reversed the protective effect of HDAC6 inhibition after CPR. In Conclusion, HDAC6 enrichment on miR-138-5p promoter deacetylated H3K9ac, inhibiting miR-138-5p expression and promoting NLRP3-mediated pyroptosis, worsening neurological dysfunction in rats after CPR.
RESUMEN
Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) plays a crucial role in the initiation and progression of various cancers, as its overexpression is linked to tumor growth, invasion, migration, survival, apoptosis, and angiogenesis. Therefore, HDAC6 has emerged as an attractive target for anticancer drug discovery in the past decade. However, the development of conventional HDAC6 inhibitors has been hampered by their limited clinical efficacy, acquired resistance, and inability to inhibit non-enzymatic functions of HDAC6. To overcome these challenges, new strategies, such as dual-acting inhibitors, targeted protein degradation (TPD) technologies (including PROTACs, HyT), are essential to enhance the anticancer activity of HDAC6 inhibitors. In this review, we focus on the recent advances in the design and development of HDAC6 modulators, including isoform-selective HDAC6 inhibitors, HDAC6-based dual-target inhibitors, and targeted protein degraders (PROTACs, HyT), from the perspectives of rational design, pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, and clinical status. Finally, we discuss the challenges and future directions for HDAC6-based drug discovery for cancer therapy.
RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Lung ischemia/reperfusion injury (LIRI) is a pathological process caused by the deficiency and subsequent reperfusion of oxygen and blood to the lung. Literature reports that the catalytic activity and expression of HDAC6 can be induced in response to IRI. HDAC6 inhibition confers protective effects against a series of IRI and also exerts pulmonary protection against various lung damage. The present study was formulated to investigate the functional role of HDAC6 inhibitor in LIRI and to probe into the intrinsic mechanisms underlying the protective role of HDAC6 inhibitor against LIRI. METHODS: Lung epithelial cell line MLE-12 cells were subjected to H/R injury to construct in vitro cell culture model of LIRI. For functional experiments, MLE-12 cells were pre-treated with various concentrations of selective HDAC6 inhibitor ACY-1215 (1, 5, 10⯵M) to evaluate the biological role of HDAC6 in LIRI. For rescue experiments, MLE-12 cells were pre-treated with Nrf2 inhibitor ML385 (10⯵M) or ERK activator LM22B-10 (50⯵M) to discuss the molecular mechanisms. RESULTS: It was verified that HDAC6 inhibition repressed H/R-induced apoptosis, oxidative stress, inflammation and mitochondrial dysfunction of MLE-12 cells. HDAC6 inhibition activated Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway and inactivated ERK/NF-κB signaling pathway in MLE-12 cells. The repressing effects of HDAC6 inhibition on H/R-induced apoptosis, oxidative stress, inflammation and mitochondrial dysfunction of MLE-12 cells were partially abolished upon pre-treatment with Nrf2 inhibitor ML385 or ERK activator LM22B-10. CONCLUSION: HDAC6 inhibition may mitigate H/R-induced lung epithelial cell injury depending on activation of Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway and inactivation of ERK/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Due to its involvement in physiological and pathological processes, histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) is considered a promising pharmaceutical target for several neurological manifestations. However, the exact regulatory role of HDAC6 in the central nervous system (CNS) is still not fully understood. Hence, using a semi-automated literature screening technique, we systematically collected HDAC6-protein interactions that are experimentally validated and reported in the CNS. The resulting HDAC6 network encompassed 115 HDAC6-protein interactions divided over five subnetworks: (de)acetylation, phosphorylation, protein complexes, regulatory, and aggresome-autophagy subnetworks. In addition, 132 indirect interactions identified through HDAC6 inhibition were collected and categorized. Finally, to display the application of our HDAC6 network, we mapped transcriptomics data of Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis on the network and highlighted that in the case of Alzheimer's disease, alterations predominantly affect the HDAC6 phosphorylation subnetwork, whereas differential expression within the deacetylation subnetwork is observed across all three neurological disorders. In conclusion, the HDAC6 network created in the present study is a novel and valuable resource for the understanding of the HDAC6 regulatory mechanisms, thereby providing a framework for the integration and interpretation of omics data from neurological disorders and pharmacodynamic assessments.

Histone Deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) is an essential regulator of histone acetylation processes, exerting influence on a multitude of cellular functions such as cell motility, endocytosis, autophagy, apoptosis, and protein trafficking through its deacetylation activity. The significant implications of HDAC6 in diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and immune disorders have motivated extensive investigation into the development of specific inhibitors targeting this enzyme for therapeutic purposes. Single targeting drugs carry the risk of inducing drug resistance, thus prompting exploration of dual targeting therapy which offers the potential to impact multiple signaling pathways simultaneously, thereby lowering the likelihood of resistance development. While pharmacological studies have exhibited promise in combined therapy involving HDAC6, challenges related to potential drug interactions exist. In response to these challenges, researchers are investigating HDAC6 hybrid molecules which enable the concomitant targeting of HDAC6 and other key proteins, thus enhancing treatment efficacy while mitigating side effects and reducing the risk of resistance compared to traditional combination therapies. The published design strategies for dual targeting inhibitors of HDAC6 are summarized and discussed in this review. This will provide some valuable insights into more novel HDAC6 dual targeting inhibitors to meet the urgent need for innovative therapies in oncology and other related fields.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an interstitial lung disease characterized by a progressive fibrotic phenotype. Immunohistochemical studies on HDAC6 overexpression in IPF lung tissues confirmed that IPF is associated with aberrant HDAC6 activity. We herein developed a series of novel HDAC6 inhibitors that can be used as potential pharmacological tools for IPF treatment. The best-performing derivative H10 showed good selectivity for multiple isoforms of the HDAC family. The structural analysis and structure-activity relationship studies of H10 will contribute to optimizing the binding mode of the new molecules. The pharmacological mechanism of H10 to inhibit pulmonary fibrosis was validated, and its ability to inhibit the IPF phenotype was also demonstrated. Moreover, H10 showed satisfactory metabolic stability. The efficacy of H10 was also determined in a mouse model of bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis. The results highlighted in this paper may provide a reference for the identification of new drug molecules for the treatment of IPF.

With the intensive research on the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD), inhibition of HDAC6 appears to be a potential therapeutic approach for AD. In this paper, a series of tetrahydro-ß-carboline derivatives with hydroxamic acid group were fast synthesized. Among all, the most potent 15 selectively inhibited HDAC6 with IC50 of 15.2 nM and markedly increased acetylated alpha-tubulin levels. In cellular assay, 15 showed excellent neurotrophic effect by increasing the expression of GAP43 and Beta-3 tubulin markers. Besides, 15 showed neuroprotective effects in PC12 or SH-SY5Y cells against H2O2 and 6-OHDA injury through activation of Nrf2, catalase and Prx II, and significantly reduced H2O2-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. In vivo, 15 significantly attenuated zebrafish anxiety-like behaviour and memory deficits in a SCOP-induced zebrafish model of AD. To sum up, multifunctional 15 might be a good lead to develop novel tetrahydrocarboline-based agents for the treatment of AD.

During aging, oocytes display cytoskeleton dynamics defects and aneuploidy, leading to embryonic aneuploidy, which in turn causes miscarriages, implantation failures, and birth defects. KIF15 (also known as Hklp2), a member of the kinesin-12 superfamily, is a cytoplasmic motor protein reported to be involved in Golgi and vesicle-related transport during mitosis in somatic cells. However, the regulatory mechanisms of KIF15 during meiosis in porcine oocytes and the connection with postovulatory aging remain unclear. In present study, we found that KIF15 is expressed during porcine oocyte maturation, and its localization is dependent on microtubule dynamics. Furthermore, the level of KIF15 expression decreased in postovulatory aged oocytes. The decrease in KIF15 blocked polar body extrusion, thereby hindering oocyte maturation. We demonstrated that KIF15 defects contributed to abnormal spindle morphologies and chromosome misalignment, possibly due to microtubule instability, as evidenced by microtubule depolymerization after cold treatment. Additionally, our data indicated that KIF15 modulates HDAC6 to affect tubulin acetylation in oocytes. Taken together, these results suggest that KIF15 regulates HDAC6-related microtubule stability for spindle organization in porcine oocytes during meiosis, which may contribute to the decline in maturation competence in aged porcine oocytes.

Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) is increasingly recognized for its potential in targeted disease therapy. This study delves into the mechanistic and structural nuances of HDAC6 inhibition by difluoromethyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole (DFMO) derivatives, a class of non-hydroxamic inhibitors with remarkable selectivity and potency. Employing a combination of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) kinetic experiments, comprehensive enzymatic characterizations, and X-ray crystallography, we dissect the intricate details of the DFMO-HDAC6 interaction dynamics. More specifically, we find that the chemical structure of a DMFO and the binding mode of its difluoroacetylhydrazide derivative are crucial in determining the predominant hydrolysis mechanism. Our findings provide additional insights into two different mechanisms of DFMO hydrolysis, thus contributing to a better understanding of the HDAC6 inhibition by oxadiazoles in disease modulation and therapeutic intervention.

BACKGROUND: External radiation therapy (RT) is often a primary treatment for inoperable meningiomas in the absence of established chemotherapy. Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) overexpression, commonly found in cancer, is acknowledged as a driver of cellular growth, and inhibiting HDACs holds promise in improving radiotherapeutic efficacy. Downregulation of HDAC6 facilitates the degradation of ß-catenin. This protein is a key element in the Wnt/ß-catenin signalling pathway, contributing to the progression of meningiomas. METHODS: In order to elucidate the associations and therapeutic potential of HDAC6 inhibitors (HDAC6i) in conjunction with RT, we administered Cay10603, HDAC6i, to both immortalised and patient-derived meningioma cells prior to RT in this study. FINDINGS: Our findings reveal an increase in HDAC6 expression following exposure to RT, which is effectively mitigated with pre-treated Cay10603. The combination of Cay10603 with RT resulted in a synergistic augmentation of cytotoxic effects, as demonstrated through a range of functional assays conducted in both 2D as well as 3D settings; the latter containing syngeneic tumour microenvironment (TME). Radiation-induced DNA damage was augmented by pre-treatment with Cay10603, concomitant with the inhibition of ß-catenin and minichromosome maintenance complex component 2 (MCM2) accumulation within the nucleus. This subsequently inhibited c-myc oncogene expression. INTERPRETATION: Our findings demonstrate the therapeutic potential of Cay10603 to improve the radiosensitisation and provide rationale for combining HDAC6i with RT for the treatment of meningioma. FUNDING: This work was funded by Brain Tumour Research Centre of Excellence award to C Oliver Hanemann.

BACKGROUND: Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) is an emerging target for the treatment and diagnosis of proteinopathies. [18F]FSW-100 was recently developed as a promising brain-penetrating radioligand for HDAC6 PET imaging and the process validation of [18F]FSW-100 radiosynthesis for clinical use is complete, but no detailed synthetic strategy nor process optimisation has been reported. Here, we describe the optimisation of several processes in [18F]FSW-100 radiosynthesis, including the 18F-fluorination reaction, semipurification of the 18F-intermediate, and purification of the product by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), to achieve a radiochemical yield (RCY) adequate for clinical applications of the radioligand. Our findings will aid optimisation of radiosynthesis processes in general. RESULTS: In the 18F-fluorination reaction, the amount of copper reagent was reduced without reducing the nonisolated RCY of the intermediate (50%), thus reducing the risk of copper contamination in the product injection solution. Optimising the solid-phase extraction (SPE) conditions for semipurification of the intermediate improved its recovery efficiency. The addition of anti-radiolysis reagents to the mobile phase for the HPLC purification of [18F]FSW-100 increased its activity yield in radiosynthesis using a high [18F]fluoride radioactivity of approximately 50 GBq. The SPE-based formulation method and additives for the injection solution were optimised, and the resulting [18F]FSW-100 injection solution was stable for over 2 h with a radiochemical purity of greater than 95%. CONCLUSIONS: Of all the reconsidered processes, we found that optimisation of the SPE-based semipurification of the intermediate and of the mobile phase for HPLC purification in particular improved the RCY of [18F]FSW-100, doubling it compared to that of the original protocol. The radioactivity of [18F]FSW-100 synthesized using the optimized protocol was sufficient for multiple doses for a clinical study.
RESUMEN
Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) was a potential target for Alzheimer's disease (AD). In this study, a series of novel oxyevodiamine-based HDAC6 inhibitors with a variety of linker moieties were designed, synthesized and evaluated. Compound 12 with a benzyl linker was identified as a high potent and selective HDAC6 inhibitor. It inhibited HDAC6 with an IC50 value of 6.2 nM and was more than 200 fold selectivity over HDAC1. It also had lower cytotoxicity and higher anti-H2O2 activity in vitro comparing with other derivatives. Compound 12 might be a good lead as novel HDAC6 inhibitor for the treatment of AD.
RESUMEN
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the most lethal form of pancreatic cancer characterized by therapy resistance and early metastasis, resulting in a low survival rate. Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors showed potential for the treatment of hematological malignancies. In PDAC, the overexpression of HDAC 2 is associated with the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), principally accompanied by the downregulation of the epithelial marker E-cadherin and increased metastatic capacity. The effector cytokine transforming growth factor-ß (TGF ß) is known to be a major inducer of the EMT in PDAC, leading to high metastatic and invasive potential. In addition, the overexpression of HDAC 6 in PDAC is associated with reduced apoptosis. Here, we have demonstrated that a novel HDAC 2/6 inhibitor not only significantly increased E-cadherin expression in PANC-1 cells (5.5-fold) and in 3D PDAC co-culture spheroids (2.5-fold) but was also able to reverse the TGF-ß-induced downregulation of E-cadherin expression. Moreover, our study indicates that the HDAC inhibitor mediated re-differentiation resulting in a significant inhibition of tumor cell invasion by approximately 60% compared to control. In particular, we have shown that the HDAC inhibitor induces both apoptosis (2-fold) and cell cycle arrest. In conclusion, the HDAC 2/6 inhibitor acts by suppressing invasion via upregulating E-cadherin mediated by HDAC 2 blockade and by inducing cell cycle arrest leading to apoptosis via HDAC 6 inhibition. These results suggest that the HDAC 2/6 inhibitor might represent a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of PDAC tumorigenesis and metastasis.
RESUMEN
Microtubules are components of the cytoskeleton that perform essential functions in eukaryotes, such as those related to shape change, motility and cell division. In this context some characteristics of these filaments are essential, such as polarity and dynamic instability. In trypanosomatids, microtubules are integral to ultrastructure organization, intracellular transport and mitotic processes. Some species of trypanosomatids co-evolve with a symbiotic bacterium in a mutualistic association that is marked by extensive metabolic exchanges and a coordinated division of the symbiont with other cellular structures, such as the nucleus and the kinetoplast. It is already established that the bacterium division is microtubule-dependent, so in this work, it was investigated whether the dynamism and remodeling of these filaments is capable of affecting the prokaryote division. To this purpose, Angomonas deanei was treated with Trichostatin A (TSA), a deacetylase inhibitor, and mutant cells for histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) were obtained by CRISPR-Cas9. A decrease in proliferation, an enhancement in tubulin acetylation, as well as morphological and ultrastructural changes, were observed in TSA-treated protozoa and mutant cells. In both cases, symbiont filamentation occurred, indicating that prokaryote cell division is dependent on microtubule dynamism.

Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) pneumonia has become an increasingly important public health problem. Recent evidence suggests that epigenetic modifications are critical in the host immune defence against pathogen infection. In this study, we found that S. aureus infection induces the expression of histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, by using a S. aureus pneumonia mouse model, we showed that the HDAC6 inhibitor, tubastatin A, demonstrates a protective effect in S. aureus pneumonia, decreasing the mortality and destruction of lung architecture, reducing the bacterial burden in the lungs and inhibiting inflammatory responses. Mechanistic studies in primary bone marrow-derived macrophages demonstrated that the HDAC6 inhibitors, tubastatin A and tubacin, reduced the intracellular bacterial load by promoting bacterial clearance rather than regulating phagocytosis. Finally, N-acetyl-L- cysteine, a widely used reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger, antagonized ROS production and significantly inhibited tubastatin A-induced S. aureus clearance. These findings demonstrate that HDAC6 inhibitors promote the bactericidal activity of macrophages by inducing ROS, an important host factor for S. aureus clearance and production. Our study identified HDAC6 as a suitable epigenetic modification target for preventing S. aureus infection, and tubastatin A as a useful compound in treating S. aureus pneumonia.

Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6), as the key regulatory enzyme, plays an important role in the development of the nervous system. More and more studies indicate that HDAC6 has become a promising therapeutic target for CNS diseases. Herein we designed and synthesized a series of novel HDAC6 inhibitors with benzothiadiazinyl systems as cap groups and evaluated their activity in vitro and in vivo. Among them, compound 3 exhibited superior selective inhibitory activity against HDAC6 (IC50 = 5.1 nM, about 30-fold selectivity over HDAC1). The results of docking showed that compound 3 can interact well with the key amino acid residues of HDAC6. Compound 3 showed lower cytotoxicity (20 µM to SH-SY5Y cells, inhibition rate = 25.75%) and better neuroprotective activity against L-glutamate-induced SH-SY5Y cell injury model in vitro. Meanwhile, compound 3 exhibited weak cardiotoxicity (10 µM hERG inhibition rate = 17.35%) and possess good druggability properties. Especially, compound 3 could significantly reduce cerebral infarction from 49.87% to 32.18%, and similar with butylphthalide in MCAO model, indicating potential clinical application prospects for alleviating ischemic stroke-induced brain infarction.
