It increases the density of synapsin-1 punctae along dendrites in neurons in vitro, modulates chromatin-mediated neuroplasticity, and enhances memory in mice. Additionally, Crebinostat induces histone H3 and H4 acetylation and enhances the expression of Egr1, a cAMP-responsive element binding protein (CREB) target gene.

RK-9123016 is a SIRT2 inhibitor. RK-9123016 increases the acetylation level of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A (eIF5A), a physiological substrate of SIRT2, and reduces cell viability of human breast cancer cells accompanied with a decrease in c-Myc expression.

Triciferol acts as a multiple ligand with combined VDR agonist and HDAC antagonist activities. Triciferol binds directly to the VDR ( IC 50 =87 nM), and functions as an agonist with 1,25D-like potency on several 1,25D target genes. Triciferol induces marked tubulin hyperacetylation, and augments histone acetylation. Triciferol also exhibits efficacious antiproliferative and cytotoxic activities in cancer cell models in vitro [1].

D-Panthenol (D-Pantothenyl alcohol) is an alcoholic analogue of D-pantothenic acid and cholinergic agent. D-Panthenol acts as a precursor of coenzyme A necessary for acetylation reactions and is involved in the synthesis of acetylcholine. Although the exact mechanism of the actions of D-Panthenol is unclear, it may enhance the effect of acetylcholine. D-Panthenol acts on the gastrointestinal tract and increases lower intestinal motility. It is also applied topically to the skin to relieve itching and to promote healing.

Nepsilon-Acetyl-L-lysine, a derivative of lysine, is a chemical compound characterized by the acetylation of the epsilon amino group of the lysine residue [Nepsilon-Ac-Lys].

Tenovin-6 is a p53 transcriptional activity agonist.

1-Naphthohydroxamic acid (Compound 2) is a potent and selective HDAC8 inhibitor with an IC50 of 14 μM, demonstrating greater selectivity for HDAC8 than class I HDAC1 and class II HDAC6 (IC50 >100 μM). It does not increase global histone H4 acetylation or reduce total intracellular HDAC activity but can induce tubulin acetylation[1][2].

MS182 (compound 11), an acetylation targeting chimera (AceTAC), incorporates p53 Y220C stabilizers with p300 CBP binders, connected via a linker. This design enables MS182 to selectively form a ternary complex with p300 CBP acetyltransferase and the mutant p53 Y220C, subsequently catalyzing specific acetylation of lysine at position 382 in a time- and concentration-dependent manner, achieving an ACE 50 of 1.52 μM.
