Scriptaid is a drug which acts as a histone deacetylase inhibitor, and was one of the first compounds discovered via high-throughput screening that acts at this target.{{cite journal | vauthors = Su GH, Sohn TA, Ryu B, Kern SE | title = A novel histone deacetylase inhibitor identified by high-throughput transcriptional screening of a compound library | journal = Cancer Research | volume = 60 | issue = 12 | pages = 3137–42 | date = June 2000 | pmid = 10866300 }} Scriptaid itself was never developed for medical applications, but led to the development of structurally related drugs such as vorinostat, which have been accepted into clinical use. Most early research using these compounds focused on their anti-cancer activity,{{cite journal | vauthors = Monneret C | title = Histone deacetylase inhibitors | journal = European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry | volume = 40 | issue = 1 | pages = 1–13 | date = January 2005 | pmid = 15642405 | doi = 10.1016/j.ejmech.2004.10.001 }} but more recent research has found scriptaid to be useful in other applications such as cloning and research into regulation of metabolism.{{cite journal | vauthors = Wang G, Jiang X, Pu H, Zhang W, An C, Hu X, Liou AK, Leak RK, Gao Y, Chen J | display-authors = 6 | title = Scriptaid, a novel histone deacetylase inhibitor, protects against traumatic brain injury via modulation of PTEN and AKT pathway : scriptaid protects against TBI via AKT | journal = Neurotherapeutics | volume = 10 | issue = 1 | pages = 124–42 | date = January 2013 | pmid = 23132328 | pmc = 3557358 | doi = 10.1007/s13311-012-0157-2 }}{{cite journal | vauthors = Zhu X, Nie J, Quan S, Xu H, Yang X, Lu Y, Lu K, Lu S | s2cid = 15676479 | display-authors = 6 | title = In vitro production of cloned and transgenically cloned embryos from Guangxi Huanjiang Xiang pig | journal = In Vitro Cellular & Developmental Biology.
