| Description | Apicidin is an inhibitor of histone deacetylase (HDAC) with IC50 value 15.8 nM and 665.1 nM for HDAC3 and HDAC6, respectively. | |||||
| Targets | HDAC3 | HDAC6 | ||||
| IC50 | 15.8 nM | 665.1 nM | ||||
| Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | HeLa cells |
Preparation method | The solubility of this compound in DMSO is limited. General tips for obtaining a higher concentration: Please warm the tube at 37 °C for 10 minutes and/or shake it in the ultrasonic bath for a while. Stock solution can be stored below -20 °C for several months. |
Reaction Conditions | 1 μg/mL; 24 hrs |
Applications | Apicidin exhibited long-lasting anti-proliferative activity against HeLa cells, up to 48 hrs after withdrawal. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | Ishikawa endometrial cancer xenografted mouse model |
Dosage form | 5 mg/kg; i.p.; q.d., for 21 days |
Applications | Significant inhibition of tumor growth was observed starting from day 15 after the Apicidin treatment. Apicidin (5 mg/kg) significantly inhibited tumor growth up to 53%. |
Other notes | Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal. |

Apicidin, a natural fugal metabolite, is a selective inhibitor of HDAC. Histone deacetylases (HDAC) are enzymes that remove acetyl groups from an ε-N-acetyl lysine amino acid on a histone. It has been revealed that histone acetyltransferase and histone deacetylase play important roles to either transcriptionally activate or repress gene expression through the reversible acetylation of lysine residues on a histone.Apicidin has the potent and broad activity against apicomplexan parasites [1]. It has also been shown to have potent anti-angiogenesis activity and decrease HIF-1a levels in both human and mouse cancer cell lines [2].The component has also been used extensively in vivo study to understand the role of HDAC in different physical processes. Apicidin exhibits anti-proliferative activity against different cancer cells lines in mice [3]. In a human colon HCT-116 carcinoma xenograft model, apicidin suppresses the tumor growth [4]. And it also exhibits the antitumor activity in a Ishikawa cell tumor xenograft model [5].References:1.Darkin-Rattray SJ, Gurnett AM, Myers RW, Dulski PM, Crumley TM, Allocco JJ, et al.
