Chemistry:Synapsinostat

From HandWiki

Synapsinostat, also known as CN13, is a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor and possible cognitive enhancer.[1][2][3] It potently inhibits the class I HDAC1, HDAC2, and HDAC3, with IC50 values of 39 nM, 41 nM, and 100 nM, respectively, whereas other HDACs were not assessed.[2] The drug has been found to potently promote synaptogenesis in vitro.[2][3] Synapsinostat was first described in the scientific literature by 2009.[1][2] Subsequently, other improved analogues acting as HDAC inhibitors such as crebinostat and neurinostat, which show much greater potency, were described.[4]
