To search for TNF-alpha (tumor necrosis factor alpha) converting enzyme (TACE) inhibitors, we designed a new class of macrocyclic hydroxamic acids by linking the P1 and P2' residues of acyclic anti-succinate-based hydroxamic acids. A variety of residues including amide, carbamate, alkyl,
The human tumor necrosis factor-α converting enzyme (TACE) has recently been raised as a new and promising therapeutic target of hepatitis and other inflammatory diseases. Here, we reported a successful application of the solved crystal structure of TACE complex with a peptide-like ligand INN for
Suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) as a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor has anti-cancer effect. Here, we evaluated the effect of SAHA on HDAC activity and cell growth in many normal lung and cancer cells. We observed that the HDAC activities of lung cancer cells were higher than that of
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
New gamma-lactam TACE inhibitors were designed from known MMP inhibitors. A homology model of TACE was built and examined to identify the S1' site as the key area for TACE selectivity over MMPs. Rational exploration of the P1'-S1' interactions resulted in the discovery of the 3,5-disubstituted
Two novel oxaspiro[4.4]nonane beta-benzamido hydroxamic scaffolds have been synthesized in enantio- and diasteriomerically pure form. These templates proved to be exceptional platforms that have led to the discovery of potent inhibitors of TACE that are active in a cellular assay measuring
Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) and the Alzheimer's amyloid precursor protein are cleaved from the membrane by zinc metalloproteinases termed ACE secretase and alpha-secretase, respectively. Tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) convertase (ADAM 17) is a recently identified member of the
Multiple proteins are proteolytically shed from the membrane, including the amyloid precursor protein (APP) involved in Alzheimer's disease, the blood pressure regulating angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), the low affinity IgE receptor CD23, and the inflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis
The purpose of this study was to examine whether histone deacetylase inhibitor suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA; Zolinza/vorinostat) could sensitize tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL)-resistant breast carcinoma in vivo. BALB/c nude mice were orthotopically implanted
New inhibitors of tumor necrosis factor-alpha converting enzyme (TACE) were discovered with a pyrimidine-2,4,6-trione in place of the commonly used hydroxamic acid. These non-hydroxamate TACE inhibitors were developed by incorporating a 4-(2-methyl-4-quinolinylmethoxy)phenyl group, an optimized TACE
We synthesized a series of novel pyrazolyl hydroxamic acid derivatives (4a-4l) and investigated their biological activities against human lung cancer cell line A549 in vitro to determine their mechanism of action. The results showed that the majority of derivatives had inhibitory effects on the
Multidrug resistance (MDR) mediated by the ATP-dependent efflux protein P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is a major obstacle to the successful treatment of many cancers. In addition to effluxing toxins, P-gp has been shown to protect tumor cells against caspase-dependent apoptosis mediated by Fas and tumor
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) is a cytokine that induces protective inflammatory reactions and kills tumor cells but also causes severe damage when produced in excess, as in rheumatoid arthritis and septic shock. Soluble TNFalpha is released from its membrane-bound precursor by a
Because of its ability to suppress tumor cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and inflammation, the histone deacetylase inhibitor suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) is currently in clinical trials. How SAHA mediates its effects is poorly understood. We found that in several human cancer cell lines,
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of molecular hydrogen (H2) and suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA), a histone deacetylase inhibitor, on paraquat (PQ)-stimulated production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) in macrophages. First, the PQ
