Ferroptosis-HDAC Inhibitor Hybrids for treating cancer

Project ID: D2022-16 Background Many cancer treatments target cells and induce apoptosis, a cell death mechanism. Due to genetic instability, tumors become more heterogeneous leading to cells that avert molecular signatures that are targeted by the cancer drugs. Drug resistance remains a major impediment to the success of a cancer treatment. Combinatorial...

A new class of HDAC inhibitors with a new metal-binding group

Project ID: D2018-08Background Cancer is group of diseases characterized by uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells. Selectivity towards cancer cells has been challenging, resulting in treatment options with severe side effects. Histone deacetylases (HDAC) are highly expressed in cancer cells and have been investigated for cancer drug development. Out...
