Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a complex disease with limited therapeutic options. Protein histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) is known to be involved in several biological processes, such as autophagy or inflammation, among others, but its impact on HFpEF has not been well evaluated to date.
Inhibiting histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) has therapeutic potential against several neurodegenerative disorders. A collaboration including researchers from Eikonizo Therapeutics Inc., spanning the U.K., U.S. and France, developed EKZ-438, which has shown strong potential against amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia in preclinical studies.
Eikonizo Therapeutics Inc. has described histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer, multiple sclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosus, neurodegeneration, obesity, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and Huntington’s disease, among others.
