Description: Nexturastat A is an aryl urea derivative that acts as a potent and highly selective inhibitor of histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) (IC50= 5.02 +/- 0.60 nM). Nexturastat A possesses antiproliferative effects against melanoma cells. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) mediate regulation of gene expression via changes in nucleosome conformation. Dysregulation of histone acetylation can lead to the development of cancers. There is renewed interest in capitalizing new breakthroughs in epigenetic research to address oncology therapy.

Biological target: Nexturastat A is a HDAC6 inhibitor with IC50 of 5 nM.
In vitro activity: To figure out the internal molecular mechanism of NexA (Nexturastat A)-inducing apoptosis of MM (multiple myeloma) cells, the expression levels of apoptosis-related factors were estimated utilizing real-time PCR. The results showed that the p21 mRNA levels were higher in RPMI-8226 and U266 cells treated for 48 h (Figure 4A,B). Then Western blot assay manifested that NexA treatment also resulted in evident increases in p21 protein levels in both cell lines (Figure 4C). After which this study carried out p21 luciferase reporter gene assays to determine whether NexA could enhance the promoter activity of p21 accordingly. The data indicated the enhanced activity of p21 with 5 and 10 µM NexA for both cell lines (Figure 4D,E). This study also evaluated p21 induction in RPMI8226/BTZ100 cells. As shown in Figure 4C, F, p21 mRNA and protein levels increased after cells were treated with 20 µM NexA. This study observed enhanced p21 promoter activity in RPMI8226/BTZ100 cells treated with 3 and 5 µM NexA (Figure 4G).

In vivo activity: This study observed a slight increase in the tumor infiltration of NK cells upon treatment with NextA (Nexturastat A) across all in vivo experiments. Therefore, this study wanted to investigate whether the inhibition of HDAC6 was able to modify the phenotype of these immune cells. Fresh NK cells were harvested from non-tumor bearing wild type C57BL/6 mice and treated with NextA to investigate the reported markers for NK cell activity and cytotoxicity, such as Granzyme B, TRAIL, and Fas ligand. Although this study observed an enhanced tumor infiltration of NK cells in all in vivo conditions using NextA, the aforementioned activation markers were minimally affected in isolated NK cells treated with this drug (Fig. 5A), suggesting that the enhanced NK infiltration observed after NextA treatment could be mediated by other indirect mechanisms.
