Product Information
5-Methylbenzofuran-2-carboxylic acid is a ligand that binds to the hydroxamic acid site on histone deacetylases, which are enzymes that remove acetyl groups from lysine residues on histones. This causes histones to become tightly packed, which inhibits transcription of DNA into RNA (gene expression). 5-Methylbenzofuran-2-carboxylic acid has been shown to be an inhibitor of the tumor growth and metastasis in animal models. The efficiencies of this drug in inhibiting the histone deacetylase enzyme have been found to be minimal. However, it is thought that this drug may be effective in combination with other drugs as a therapeutic agent for cancer treatment.
