An insight into the mechanisms of action of selected bioactive compounds against epigenetic targets of prostate cancer: implications on histones modifications

Abstract Prostate cancer is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among men globally. In this study, we employed an in silico approach to predict the possible mechanisms of action of selected novel compounds reported against prostate cancer epigenetic targets and their derivatives, exhausting through ADMET profiling, drug-likeness, and molecular docking analyses. The selected compounds: sulforaphane, silibinin, 3, 3’-diindolylmethane (DIM), and genistein largely conformed to ADMET and drug-likeness rules including Lipinski’s. Docking studies revealed strong binding energy of sulforaphane with HDAC6 (− 4.2 kcal/ mol), DIM versus HDAC2 (− 5.2 kcal/mol), genistein versus HDAC6 (− 4.1 kcal/mol), and silibinin against HDAC1 (− 7.0 kcal/mol) coupled with improved binding affinities and biochemical stabilities after derivatization. Findings from this study may provide insight into the potential epigenetic reprogramming mechanisms of these compounds against prostate cancer and could pave the way toward more success in prostate cancer phytotherapy..
