Description
InformationRicolinostat (ACY-1215, Rocilinostat) is a selectiveHDAC6inhibitor withIC50of 5 nM in a cell-free assay. It is >10-fold more selective for HDAC6 than HDAC1/2/3 (class I HDACs) with slight activity against HDAC8, minimal activity against HDAC4/5/7/9/11, SiIn vitroACY-1215 is a hydroxamic acid derivative. ACY-1215 is 12-, 10-, and 11-fold less active against HDAC1, HDAC2, and HDAC3 (class I HDACs), respectively. ACY-1215 has minimal activity (IC50 > 1µM) against HDAC4, HDAC5, HDAC7, HDAC9, HDAC11, Sirtuin1, and Sirtuin2, and has slight activity against HDAC8 (IC50 = 0.1µM). The IC50 values for ACY-1215 for T-cell toxicity is 2.5µM. ACY-1215 overcomes tumor cell growth and survival conferred by BMSCs and cytokines in the BM milieu. ACY-1215 in combination with bortezomib induces synergistic anti-MM activity. ACY-1215 induces potent acetylation of α-tubulin at very low doses and triggers acetylation of lysine on histone H3 and histone H4 only at higher doses, confirming its specific inhibitory effect on HDAC6 activity.In vivoACY-1215 in combination with bortezomib triggered more significant anti-MM activity than either agent alone in suppressing tumor growth and prolonging survival in both plasmacytoma model and disseminated MM model without significant adverse effects. ACY-1215 is readily absorbed by tumor tissue. Moreover, the drug does not accumulate in tumor tissue, as evidenced by the parallel decline of acetylated α-tubulin in blood cells and tumor tissue by 24 hours after dose.Cell Datacell lines:Concentrations:~8 µMIncubation Time:48 hoursPowder Purity:≥98%
