Modifications in the epigenetic landscape have been considered a hallmark of cancer. Histone deacetylation is one of the crucial epigenetic modulations associated with the aggressive progression of various cancer subtypes. Herein, we have repurposed the neprilysin inhibitor sacubitrilat as a potent anticancer agent using in-silico protein–ligand interaction profiler (PLIP) analysis, molecular docking, and in vitro studies. The screening of PLIP profiles between vorinostat/panobinostat and HDACs/LTA4H followed by molecular docking resulted in five (Sacubitrilat, B65, BDS, BIR, and NPV) FDA-approved, experimental and investigational drugs. Sacubitrilat has demonstrated promising anticancer activity against colorectal cancer (SW-480) and triple-negative breast cancer (MDA-MB-231) cells, with IC50values of 14.07 μg/mL and 23.02 μg/mL, respectively. FACS analysis revealed that sacubitrilat arrests the cell cycle at the G0/G1 phase and induces apoptotic-mediated cell death in SW-480 cells. In addition, sacubitrilat inhibited HDAC isoforms at the transcriptomic level by 0.7–0.9 fold and at the proteomic level by 0.5–0.6 fold as compared to the control. Sacubitrilat increased the protein expression of tumor-suppressor (p53) and pro-apoptotic makers (Bax and Bid) by 0.2–2.5 fold while decreasing the expression of anti-apoptotic Bcl2 and Nrf2 proteins by 0.2–0.5 fold with respect to control. The observed cleaved PARP product indicates that sacubitrilat induces apoptotic-mediated cell death. This study may pave the way to identify the anticancer potential of sacubitrilat and can be explored in human clinical trials.
