Bioactivity Comments
Belinostat inhibits histone deacetylase activity in HeLa cell extracts with an IC50 of 27 nM and induces a concentration-dependent increase in acetylation of histone H4 in tumor cell lines [4]. Belinostat inhibits purified recombinant hHDACs 1-9 with EC50 values ranging from 20- 216nM [3].
Note that since this drug acts across the HDAC I and II families, we have not tagged a primary target for belinostat.
