A cell-permeable N-hydroxycinnamide derivative that acts a highly potent and HDAC8-selective histone deacetylase inhibitor (IC50 = 27nM), displaying much reduced or little potency against HDAC1/3 (IC50 = 3.0uM), HDAC2/4/6/10/11 (IC50 >20uM), or total HDAC activity in HeLa nuclear extract (IC50 >10uM). Reported to preferentially inhibit the proliferation of human lung cancer cells CL1-5, H1299, and A549 (IC50 from 7 to 8uM), while being much less toxic to normal human lung IMR-90 cells (73% inhibition at 40uM).
