Cytotoxic activity of the histone deacetylase 3-Selective inhibitor Pojamide on MDA-MB-231 triple-negative breast cancer cells

We examined the effects of the ferrocene-based histone deacetylase-3 inhibitor Pojamide (N1-(2-aminophenyl)-N8-ferrocenyloctanediamide) and its two derivatives N1-(2-aminophenyl)-N6-ferrocenyladipamide and N1-(2-aminophenyl)-N8-ferroceniumoctanediamide tetrafluoroborate on triple-negative MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. Viability/growth assays indicated that only the first two compounds at 70 &mu
