Compounds of a histone deacetylase inhibitor. The compounds are capable of simultaneously stimulating epithelium regrowth, inhibiting cutaneous fibroblast proliferation, decreasing collagen deposit, suppressing fibrogenic growth factor and subsiding inflammatory cytokine, and are useful inhibiting the main features of radiation cutaneous syndrome. Results include a decrease in skin swelling, promotion of epithelium healing, and prevention of cutaneous fibrosis, ulceration and necrosis. The present invention provides methods of treating, preventing or ameliorating radiation-induced skin damage by administering a therapeutically effective amount of a histone deacetylase inhibitor.
