Biochem/physiol Actions

MGCD0103 (Mocetinostat) is an orally active, potent and subtype-selective histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor (IC50: class I HDAC1/2/3 = 0.15/0.29/1.66 μM, class IV HDAC11 = 0.59 μM, HDAC4/5/7/8 >10 μM) that effectively inhibits cellular HDAC activity (IC50 = 450 nM; Du145, HCT15, HCT116), resulting in an upregulated acetylation of histone H3 and H4, but not that of tubulin. MGCD0103 daily orally administration (60-120 mg/kg) is efficacious against A549 & H1437 tumor growth in mice in vivo.

To investigate the effect and mechanism of mocetinostat on diminishing epidural fibrosis. Dysregulated wound repair usually occurs after injury or surgery and is featured by excessive scar tissue contributed by fibrosis. Increasing researches demonstrated that histone acetylation, an epigenetic alteration
