lipogenesis

INT-767 is a potent farnesoid X receptor (FXR) TGR5 dual agonist that prevents NASH and promotes visceral adipose brown lipogenesis and mitochondrial function for the study of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis.

L-(+)-Arabinose selectively inhibits intestinal sucrase in a non-competitive manner, thereby preventing glucose elevation induced by sucrose intake.

SR9243, an LXR inverse agonist, can induce LXR-corepressor interaction; shows anticancer activity and selectively targets the lipogenesis and Warburg effect.

(-)-Hydroxycitric acid (Garcinia acid) is the principal acid found in the fruit rinds of Garcinia cambogia. It acts as a potent and competitive inhibitor of ATP citrate lyase, suppressing fatty acid synthesis, food intake, lipogenesis, and inducing weight loss.

MT 63-78 is a specific and effective direct AMPK activator (EC50: 25 μM) that blocks prostate cancer growth by inhibiting the lipogenesis and mTORC1 pathways. It has antitumor effects and induces cell mitotic arrest and apoptosis.

HDAC11-IN-2 (compound B6) is a highly selective inhibitor of Histone Deacetylase 11 (HDAC11). It demonstrates IC50 values of 51.1 ×10^-3 μM for HDAC11 and 5 μM for HDAC8. HDAC11-IN-2 reduces de novo lipogenesis (DNL) and enhances fatty acid oxidation, which alleviates hepatic lipid accumulation and pathological symptoms in MASLD mice. By inhibiting HDAC11, HDAC11-IN-2 enhances the phosphorylation of AMPKα1 at the Thr172 site, thereby modulating de novo lipogenesis and fatty acid oxidation in the liver.

Pinolenic Acid (PNLA) is an omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid extracted from pine nuts, with anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and lipid-lowering activities, improving oleic acid-induced lipogenesis and oxidative stress in HepG2 cells, useful in breast cancer research.

Neomangiferin (Mangiferin 7-glucoside) has beneficial effects on high fat diet-induced nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in rats. Neomangiferin and mangiferin inhibit tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase, a biochemical marker of osteoclast function and bone resorption.

CTL-06, a Fatty Acid Synthase (FASN) inhibitor with an IC50 of 3 μM, induces apoptosis, while CTL-12 impedes cell cycle progression in the Sub-G1 S phase and modulates apoptotic and anti-apoptotic markers by upregulating caspase-9 and Bax and downregulating Bcl-xL. Additionally, CTL-12 suppresses de novo lipogenesis, curtailing the metabolic needs of tumor cells, with utilization in breast and colorectal cancer studies [1].

CTL-12, a fatty acid synthase (FASN) inhibitor (IC50: 2.5 μM), induces apoptosis and disrupts the cell cycle at the Sub-G1 S phase. It upregulates caspase-9 and the apoptosis marker Bax, while downregulating the anti-apoptotic marker Bcl-xL. By inhibiting de novo lipogenesis, CTL-12 thwarts tumor cells' metabolic requirements and is frequently employed in breast and colorectal cancer studies [1].

Haloxyfop-P-methyl, an aryloxyphenoxypropionate herbicide, is absorbed through both foliage and roots, where it inhibits lipogenesis and induces oxidative stress in susceptible plant species [1].

KHK-IN-3 (Example 1), a ketohexokinase (KHK) inhibitor, plays a crucial role in the study of various diseases including kidney disease, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), diabetes, and heart failure. KHK, a pivotal rate-limiting enzyme and fructokinase, facilitates the metabolism of fructose by catalyzing the transformation of fructose into fructose-1-phosphate (FIP) utilizing ATP. This process lacks feedback inhibition, leading to the buildup of metabolites involved in lipogenesis, gluconeogenesis, and oxidative phosphorylation [1].

NNMTi (5-Amino-1-methylquinolinium) is a substrate site-targeting, selective nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) inhibitor (IC50 = 1.2 μM; 50 μM SAM, 100 μM NCA) that reduces 3T3-L1 lipogenesis (EC50 = 30μM) and adipocytes 1-methylnicotinamide level (EC50 = 2.3 μM) without affecting related methyltransferases & enzymes in the NAD+ salvage pathway

Erycibelline has antiobesity activity, it may be a useful therapeutic agent for body weight control by downregulating adipogenesis and lipogenesis.

Neobyakangelicol has anti-lipolytic hormones effects, it can strongly inhibit insulin- stimulated lipogenesis.

Tachioside has antiobesity, antioxidant and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities, it decreases lipid content in 3T3-L1 adipocytes by inhibiting lipogenesis, shows antiobesity activities. Tachioside can inhibit nitric oxide production in lipopolysaccharides-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells with IC50 value of 12.14 μM.
