Avasimibe

501, 72

Avasimibe at concentration of 1ug/mL causes reduction of Total cholesterol (TC) and Esterified cholesterol (EC) through inhibiting LDL binding and decreasing scavenger receptor numbers during foam cell formation in human monocyte-derived macrophages (HMMs). Avasimibe at concentration of 2ug/mL enhances cholesterol efflux from established HMM foam cells preincubating with 10ug/ml LDL. [1] Avasimibe inhibits Lipoprotein(a) accumulation in the culture media of primary monkey hepatocyte in a dose-dependent manner with 11.9% -31.3% inhibition, the change is mainly associated with decreased ApoA. [2] Avasimibe incubating at concentration of 10 nM, 1 uM, and 10 uM for 24 hours in HepG2 cells reduce ApoB secretion into media by 25%, 27%, and 43%, respectively. Avasimibe decreases ApoB secretion by enhanced intracellular degradation of ApoB rather than decreased synthesis of ApoB. [3] Avasimibe inhibits ACTC with IC50 of 3.3 uM in IC-21 macrophages with consideration of the total inhibitor concentration in the assay sample. [4] Avasimibe inhibits human P450 isoenzymes CYP2C9, CYP1A2 and CYP2C19 with IC50 of 2.9 uM, 13.9 uM and 26.5 uM, respectively. [5] Avasimibe inhibits ACAT-1 expression and cholesterol ester synthesis in glioma cell lines. Avasimibe inhibits the growth of the glioma cells by inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis due to caspase-8 and caspase-3 activation. [6]
