Art has been reduced by 54% and 52%. Beauveriolide III showed no side effects such as diarrhea or cytotoxicity t adrenal tissue w During the experiments, even at 100 mg kg 1 day 1 Most synthetic ACAT inhibitors such as CL 283,546 showed toxic effects on the adrenal gland. No data was inconclusive whether the toxic effects on the adrenal Zibotentan ETA-receptor inhibitor gland are inh Rent mechanism of action of these drugs. However proved some synthetic inhibitors as avasimibe their effectiveness in vivo, but had no effect on the adrenal glands. At present, the involvement of ACAT 1 and ACAT 2 is antiatherosclerogenic controversial as drug target. Some ACAT inhibitors may develop atherosclerotic L versions Independent Ngig of an effect on plasma cholesterol reduce rabbit, hamster and cholesterol, but with other inhibitors, h Depends to lower cholesterol levels their effect on plasma cholesterol.
In pharmacological studies and genetic animals was shown that specific inhibition of ACAT 1 the size E of the damage due to the accumulation of free cholesterol Droxinostat in the L Hen emissions increased. Therefore, the selective inhibition of ACAT 1 with caution be approached in humans. ACAT 2 transgenic M Usen reduction of EC synthesis in the small intestine and the liver, which in turn mie protection against diet-induced hypercholesterolaemia And gallstone formation. In addition, ACAT 2 and apoE-deficient M Usen triglyceriderich apoB-containing lipoproteins and atherogenic L Sion No. A selective inhibitor of ACAT 2 can be useful to prevent Di Hypercholesterol t-induced Chemistry, but the development of this drugs has not cloudy with leads.
Only recently, pyripyropene A fungus discovered by our group, was second as a very specific ACAT inhibitor Avasimibe that both ACAT 1 and ACAT 2 activity inhibits th Reduces atherosclerosis in several animal models and is currently being evaluated in clinical trials. Our results show that beauveriolides that also inhibit both ACAT 1 and ACAT 2, an anti-atherogenic LDL both R and apoE knockout Mice are no side effects such as diarrhea or cytotoxicity t adrenal tissue. Beauveriolides I and III, Cyclodepsipetides microbial previously not have anti-atherosclerotic effect in vivo, that. Promise potential lead compounds for anti-atherosclerotic agents We thank Ms. Makiko Masuda and Mr. Daisuke Matsuda for excellent support w During this work.
