Page/Page column 58, (2013/04/24)
The compounds of the present invention are HDAC6 selective inhibitors which are identified on the basis of accumulation of acetylated tubulin without accumulation of acetylated histones. Histone deacetylase or "HDAC" refers to enzymes capable of cleaving an acetyl group (-C(=0)CH3) from proteins, including histone and microtubulins. Compositions comprising the molecules and methods for their use to inhibit the activity of histone deacetylase, including for treatment, are also disclosed.
