Several Pt(IV) prodrugs containing SAA, a histone deacetylases inhibitor, were designed and prepared for multiply targeting genomic DNA, histone deacetylases and PARP-1. The resulting Pt(IV) prodrug had significantly strong antiproliferative activity against the tested cancer cell lines, especially SAA1, derived from the conjugation of cisplatin and SAA, had potent ability to overcome cisplatin resistance. Under the combined action of DNA platination and inhibition of HDACs and PARP-1 activity, the cytotoxic activity of SAA1 was 174-fold higher than cisplatin against cisplatin-resistant SGC7901/CDDP cancer cells. The mechanism of action of SAA1 was preliminarily investigated, in which cellular uptake, cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest as well as western blot analysis were made by treating SAA1 with SGC7901/CDDP cells. Besides, HDACs inhibition activity and PARP-1 enzyme inhibition of SAA1 were also studied.

Hypoxia (lower than normal oxygen) is a characteristic of most solid tumours that results in poor cancer patient prognosis. The difference in cellular environment between normoxia (21percent oxygen) or physoxia (4–7.5percent oxygen) and hypoxia (2.0percent oxygen) causes increased resistance to radio- and chemotherapy, but also provides the opportunity to selectively release hypoxia-activated pro-drugs. This approach potentially allows targeting of chemotherapies, including lysine deacetylase (KDAC) inhibitors, to the hypoxic fraction of cells. Here, we report initial work on the development of KDAC inhibitors that are selectively released in hypoxic conditions. We have shown that the addition of a 4-nitrobenzyl (NB) or 1-methyl-2-nitroimidazole (NI) bioreductive group onto the hydroxamic acid moiety of SAHA, giving NB-SAHA and NI-SAHA, abolishes KDAC inhibition activity. Both NB-SAHA and NI-SAHA undergo enzyme-mediated bioreduction, in a hypoxia-dependent manner, to release SAHA selectively in 0.1percent oxygen. This work provides an important foundation for further investigations into the targeted release of KDAC inhibitors in hypoxic tumours.
H2O2/Peroxynitrite-Activated Hydroxamic Acid HDAC Inhibitor Prodrugs Show Antileukemic Activities against AML Cells

Occurrence of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) results in abundant endogenous reactive oxygen species (ROS)/reactive nitrogen species (RNS) in AML cells and in disease-relevant microenvironments. Histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) prodrug approach was designed accordingly by masking the hydroxamic acid zinc binding group with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)/peroxynitrite (PNT)-sensitive, self-immolative aryl boronic acid moiety. Model prodrugs 5-82 and 5-23 were activated in AML cells to release cytotoxic HDACis, evidenced by inducing acetylation markers and reducing viability of AML cells. Intracellular activation and antileukemic activities of prodrug were increased or decreased by ROS/PNT inducers and scavengers, respectively. Prodrugs 5-82 and 5-23 also enhanced the potency of chemotherapy drug cytarabine, supporting the potentials of this prodrug class in combinatorial treatment.
