The inhibition of HDACs will lead to compensated activation of a notorious cancer-related drug target, STAT3, in breast cancer through a cascade, which probably limits the anti-proliferation effect of HDAC inhibitors in solid tumors. Herein, researchers synthesized a series of potent pterostilbene hydroxamic acid derivatives with dual-target inhibition activity. The pharmacokinetic experiment in SD Rats was carried out by Medicilon.Reference:
