Quinoline derivatives, particularly 4-(4-(4-(quinolin-4-ylamino)benzamido)phenylthio)pyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid; 3-(4-(4-(quinolin-4-ylamino)benzamido)phenylthio)pyrrolidine; N-(4-(piperidin-4-ylthio)phenyl)-4-(quinolin-4-ylamino)-benzamide; and N-(4-(piperidin-3-ylthio)phenyl)-4-(quinolin-4-ylamino)-benzamide, or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof, are provided. Such quinoline derivatives can be used for modulation of DNA methylation, such as effective inhibition of methylation of cytosine at the C-5 position, for example via selective inhibition of DNA methyltransferase DNMT1. Methods for synthesizing numerous 4-anilinoquinoline derivatives and for modulating DNA methylation are provided. Also provided are methods for formulating and administering these compounds or compositions to treat conditions such as cancer and hematological disorders.

Quinoline derivatives for modulating DNA methylation

Quinoline derivatives, particularly 4-anilinoquinoline derivatives of formula (I), are provided: Such quinoline derivatives can be used for modulation of DNA methylation, such as effective inhibition of methylation of cytosine at the C-5 position, for example via selective inhibition of DNA methyltransferase DNMT 1. Methods for synthesizing numerous 4-anilinoquinoline derivatives and for modulating DNA methylation are provided.
