Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

PCI-34051 is a potent, histone deacetylase 8 (HDAC8)-specific inhibitor with >200-fold selectivity over the other HDAC isoforms. PCI-34051 induces caspase-dependent apoptosis in cell lines derived from T-cell lymphomas or leukemias, but not in other hematopoietic or solid tumor lines. Unlike broad-spectrum HDAC inhibitors, PCI-34051 does not cause detectable histone or tubulin acetylation. PCI-34051 could offer benefits including a greater therapeutic index for treating T-cell malignancies.

Biological target:
PCI-34051 is a potent and selective HDAC8 inhibitor with IC50 of 10 nM
In vitro activity:
To refine the understanding of which HDACs are relevant in oxidative stress-induced neurodegeneration, an in vitro model of neuronal oxidative death was established. To investigate the role of HDAC8 in oxidative stress-induced neuronal death directly, HDAC8 gene expression was reduced using RNA interference. PCI-34051 was able to significantly protect the cells even when HDAC8 levels were reduced, suggesting that PCI-34051's neuroprotective effect is independent from HDAC8 inhibition. To rule out that the neuroprotective effect of PCI-34051 is dependent on its ability to inhibit residual HDAC8 activity in the knockdown cells, it was reasoned that, if PCI-34051 mediates neuroprotection by inhibiting residual HDAC8 activity in the HDAC8 knockdown cells, then it would be expected to observe that lower doses of PCI-34051 significantly mediate neuroprotection in HDAC8 knockdown cells compared with wild-type cells. Indeed, no changes were observed in the PCI-34051 neuroprotective dose–response, suggesting that the compound's neuroprotective effect is independent from inhibition of residual HDAC8 activity J Neurosci. 2014 Oct 22; 34(43): 14328–14337. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4205555/
In vivo activity:
This study was to investigate the effects of HDAC8 inhibitor PCI-34051 on OVA-exposed lungs and IL-4 treated macrophages Mice were sensitized and then treated with budesonide (BUD) or PCI-34051 (PCI) prior to exposing to normal saline (NS) or ovalbumin (OVA). AHR and airway allergic inflammation were measured in mice exposed to either NS or OVA in presence and absence of BUD or PCI-34051, respectively. The ranking for the resistance measured from concentration-response curves was shown in such an order of OVA > PCI-34051 = BUD > NS in the airflow changes form the investigated animals. In contrast, the average value of Penn from OVA-challenged mice was a three-fold higher than the control mice at the highest dose of MCh (Fig.1a). Although treatment with BUD and PIC resulted in obvious decreases in airway resistance in the animals exposed to OVA, the values were still higher than the control. In statistical analysis, there were significant differences in the values measured at the dosage levels (12.5, 25 and 50 mg/ml) of MCh inhalation between OVA group and other groups (all P < 0.01, n = 6). Additionally, there were differences seen in the Penh values at the maximum dose of MCh challenge between NS-treated mice and BUD- or PCI-treated ones (P < 0.05, n = 6). In histopathological examination, representative images of lung sections showed more severe infiltration of peribronchial inflammatory cells and a large amount of mucus secretion in the OVA-exposed lungs than the NS-treated lungs. Treatment with BUD and PCI34051 resulted in significant reduction in the cell infiltration and mucus accumulation in the challenged lungs (Fig.11d).
