Bavarostata is a highly brain penetrant HDAC6 inhibitor (IC50=60nM). Bavarostat exhibits excellent HDAC6 selectivity (>80-fold over all other Zn-containing HDAC paralogues), modulates tubulin acetylation selectively over histone acetylation, and has excellent brain penetrance.

YW2065 has excellent anti-colorectal cancer effects in vitro and in vivo. YW2065 achieves its inhibitory activity for Wnt signaling by stabilizing Axin-1, a scaffolding protein that regulates proteasome degradation of β-catenin. Simultaneously, YW2065 also led to the activation of the tumor suppressor AMPK, providing an additional anticancer mechanism. In addition, YW2065 showed favorable pharmacokinetic properties without obvious toxicity.
