Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |

Mechanism Of Action and Pharmacodynamic Effects |
The HDAC inhibitor vorinostat was the first compound designed to inhibit HDACs to be approved for clinical use. HDAC inhibition increases acetylation of histone H3 and leads to downstream activation of the PI3K/Akt and MAPK/Ras signaling pathways and ultimately results in cell cycle arrest and apoptosis [3]. HDAC inhibitors are predicted to have application across a wide range of haematological and solid tumor types. |
