Abstract

The invention relates to methods for the identification of compounds, peptides and proteins that can act as substrates for histone deacetylases. The invention further relates to compounds of Formula I: F 1 —X 1 -L 1 -X 2 —P 1 —X 3 -G 1   (Formula I) The invention relates to the treatment of diseases or disorders mediated by ARID1A (BAF250A).

Claims (25)

1. A method for the treatment of an ARID1A (BAF250A) mediated cancer in a subject in need thereof comprising the step of administering an inhibitor of HDAC8 to the subject, wherein the cancer is selected from the group consisting of ovarian cancer, ovarian clear-cell carcinoma, gastric cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, breast cancer, uterine endometrioid carcinoma, uterine clear-cell carcinoma, pancreatic cancer, transitional-cell carcinoma or bladder, Waldenstrom macrogloblinemia, anaplastic thyroid cancer, renal cancer, colon cancer, lung cancer, cervical adenocarcinoma, bile duct cancer, prostate cancer, and medulloblastoma.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein said inhibitor of HDAC8 is a selective inhibitor of HDAC8, and wherein said inhibitor of HDAC8 inhibits activity of HDAC8 by a factor of two or more in comparison to inhibitor activity against another HDAC isoform.

3. A method for the treatment of a cancer mediated by CENPF, NCOA3, SMC3, RAI1, ZRANB2, SRSF5, CSRP2BP, MAML1, PPIL2, or MLL2 in a subject in need thereof comprising the step of administering an inhibitor of HDAC8 to the subject, wherein the cancer is selected from the group consisting of ovarian cancer, ovarian clear-cell carcinoma, gastric cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, breast cancer, uterine endometrioid carcinoma, uterine clear-cell carcinoma, pancreatic cancer, transitional-cell carcinoma or bladder, Waldenstrom macrogloblinemia, anaplastic thyroid cancer, renal cancer, colon cancer, lung cancer, cervical adenocarcinoma, bile duct cancer, prostate cancer, and medulloblastoma.

4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein said inhibitor of HDAC8 is a selective inhibitor of HDAC8, and wherein said inhibitor of HDAC8 inhibits activity of HDAC8 by a factor of two or more in comparison to inhibitor activity against another HDAC isoform.

5. A method for the treatment of a cancer mediated by the aberrant expression of a gene selected from HMOX1, IGF1R, CRK, CDKN1B, CDK1, CDKN1A (p21), CDK4 and TP53 in a subject in need thereof comprising the step of administering an inhibitor of HDAC8 to the subject, wherein the cancer is selected from the group consisting of ovarian cancer, ovarian clear-cell carcinoma, gastric cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, breast cancer, uterine endometrioid carcinoma, uterine clear-cell carcinoma, pancreatic cancer, transitional-cell carcinoma or bladder, Waldenstrom macrogloblinemia, anaplastic thyroid cancer, renal cancer, colon cancer, lung cancer, cervical adenocarcinoma, bile duct cancer, prostate cancer or medulloblastoma.

6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein said inhibitor of HDAC8 is a selective inhibitor of HDAC8 and wherein said inhibitor of HDAC8 inhibits activity of HDAC8 by a factor of two or more in comparison to inhibitory activity against another HDAC isoform.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein said inhibitor of HDAC8 is selected from the following compounds:

8. A method for assessing acetylation or deacetylation activity in a cell line, comprising the steps of:

(i) providing a cell line that expresses HDAC8;

(ii) growing cells from the cell line in the presence of PCI-34051;

(iii) growing cells from the cell line in the presence of BRD3811 second line; and

(iv) comparing the level of acetylation in the cells obtained after step (ii) with the level of acetylation obtained after step (iii)

wherein an increased level of acetylation in the cells obtained after step (ii) as compared to that of the cells obtained after step (iii) indicates the presence of a substrate of HDAC8 in the cell line.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the acetylation level is determined after contacting the cells of step (ii) and the cells of step (iii) with an acetyl lysine antibody.

10. The method according to claim 9 , further comprising the step of isolating said acetyl lysine antibody.

11. The method according to claim 10 , further comprising the step of isolating the protein, or a fragment of the protein or a peptide bound to said acetyl lysine antibody.

12. The method according to claim 11 , further comprising the step of analyzing said isolated protein or said fragment of a protein or said peptide by a mass spectrometer or Liquid column chromatography-mass spectrometer.

13. The method of claim 6 , wherein said inhibitor of HDAC8 inhibits activity of HDAC8 by a factor of five or more in comparison to inhibitory activity against another HDAC isoform.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein said inhibitor of HDAC8 inhibits activity of HDAC8 by a factor of ten or more in comparison to inhibitory activity against another HDAC isoform.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein said inhibitor of HDAC8 inhibits activity of HDAC8 by a factor of fifty or more in comparison to inhibitory activity against another HDAC isoform.

16. The method of claim 6 , wherein said inhibitor of HDAC8 is a selective inhibitor of HDAC8 and wherein said inhibitor of HDAC8 inhibits activity of HDAC8 by a factor of two or more in comparison to inhibitory activity against two or more HDAC isoforms.

17. The method of claim 16 , wherein said inhibitor of HDAC8 is a selective inhibitor of HDAC8 and wherein said inhibitor of HDAC8 inhibits activity of HDAC8 by a factor of two or more in comparison to inhibitory activity against four or more HDAC isoforms.

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein said inhibitor of HDAC8 is a selective inhibitor of HDAC8 and wherein said inhibitor of HDAC8 inhibits activity of HDAC8 by a factor of two or more in comparison to inhibitory activity against five or more HDAC isoforms.

19. The method of claim 9 , wherein the contacting is immunoprecipitation.

20. The method of claim 9 , wherein the acetylation sites are quantified.
