ClassNameTargetMechanismReferences

Hydroxamic acidsSAHAHDAC I, HDAC II, HDAC IVInduces hyperacetylation of H2A and H3 and inhibits tumor activity[57]
Upregulate E calcineurin and ErbB3, downregulate vimentin, EGFR and ErbB2, and enhance the antitumor effect of defibrotide[58]
TSAHDAC I, HDAC IIInduced apoptosis of tumor cells in combination with PS-341[59]
Combine with ATRA to inhibit tumor growth[60]
LBH589HDAC I, HDAC II, HDAC IVInduce high acetylation of H3 and H4, inhibit tumor growth and induce apoptosis, and lead to G1 phase block[61]
Upregulate the expression of p21 and induce G2/M arrest and cancer cell apoptosis[62]

CyclopeptidesApicidinHDAC1, HDAC3Competitive combination of HDAC and antitumor proliferation[63]
Increase the level of LC3-II and increase the apoptosis and autophagy of tumor cells[64]
FK228HDAC1, HDAC2Reduce Ki67 staining and inhibit tumor growth[65]
Induce high expression of hTERT and inhibit tumor growth[66]
TrapoxinHDAC8Inhibit tumor cell proliferation as a potential anticancer compound[67]

Short-chain fatty acidsVPAHDAC I, HDAC IIPromote H3, H4 acetylation and inhibit oncogene expression[68]
Increase G1 arrest and apoptosis of tumor cells[69]
PBAHDAC I, HDAC IIPromote tumor cell apoptosis and inhibit EMT transformation[70]
Reduce TNF-α level and promote DNA repair[71]
NaBuHDAC I, HDAC IIaInduce cell cycle arrest, related to the increased expression of kip1[72]

BenzamidesMS-275HDAC IMake tumor cells stagnate in G0/G1 phase, enhance H3 and H4 acetylation, and promote apoptosis[73]
Increase cisplatin cytotoxicity[74]
Inhibit tumor migration and invasion by activating mir-107 and miR-138[75]
MGCD0103HDAC I, HDAC IVHas better radiotherapy sensitization effect[76]
