Description
LMK-235 is an HDAC inhibitor, selectively targeting HDAC4 and HDAC5. It induces apoptosis in multiple myeloma cells, a cancer type with a high rate of relapse. This activity is attributed to the downregulation of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), which is closely related to HDAC4, as well as increased phosphorylation of JNK.
