RESUMO
A series of 3-subsituted quinolinehydroxamic acids has been synthesised and evaluated for their effect on human lung cancer cell line (A549), human colorectal cancer cell line (HCT116) and HDAC isoforms 1, 2, 6, and 8. The results indicated that substitution at C3 of quinoline is favoured for HDAC6 selectivity. Two compounds (25 and 26) were also found to be potent anti-proliferative compounds with IC50 values ranging from 1.29 to 2.13 µM against A549 and HCT116 cells. These compounds displayed remarkable selectivity for HDAC6 over other HDAC isoforms with nanomolar IC50 values. Western blot analysis revealed that compounds of this series activate apoptotic caspase pathway as indicated by cleavage of caspase 3, 8, and 9 and also increase phosphorylated H2AX thus inducing DNA double strand fragmentation in a concentration dependent manner. Flow cytometric analysis also displayed a dose dependent increase of cell population in sub G1 phase.

This study reports the design and synthesis of 2-(phenylsulfonyl)quinoline N-hydroxyacrylamides (8a-k). Structure-activity relationship studies focusing on regio-effect of N-hydroxyacrylamide moiety and influence of the sulfonyl linker revealed that N-hydroxy-3-[3-(quinoline-2-sulfonyl)-phenyl]-acrylamide (8f) showed remarkable enzymatic and cellular activity. The GI50 values of 8f for HL-60, HCT116, PC-3, and A549 cells were found to be 0.29, 0.08, 0.15, and 0.27 µM, respectively. The compounds are therefore more potent than FDA approved PXD-101 and SAHA. They also have an effect on the acetylation degree of histone H3 and α-tubulin. In in vivo studies, 8f showed marked inhibition of the growth of HCT116 xenografts.
