摘要
The anti-epileptic drug valproic acid harbors anti-tumoral activity in solid and leukemic tumor cell models and is currently evaluated in clinical trials. However, the plasma trough concentrations obtained in patients by common anti-epileptic dose regimens are below concentrations required for exerting anti-tumor effects in vitro. Here, we describe the identification of three novel valproic acid derivatives with superior differentiation-inducing and anti-proliferative activities in K562 bcr/abl-positive chronic myeloid leukemia cells and HL60 promyelocytic leukemia cells at achievable therapeutic VPA concentrations. These compounds reveal potent inhibition of histone deacetylase activity, induction of P21(Cip/Waf) expression as well as low toxicity on CD34(+) bone marrow cells. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd.
