Nevanimibe

Nevanimibe (PD-132301; ATR101) is a selective and potent acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol O-acyltransferase 1 (ACAT1) inhibitor with an EC50 of 9 nM. Nevanimibe (PD-132301; ATR101) inhibits ACAT2 with an EC50 of 368 nM[1].

ACAT1:9 nM (EC50)

ACAT2:368 nM (EC50)

Coincubation of Nevanimibe (ATR-101; 3 nM-30 μM) and Cholesterol markedly increases toxicity in a dose-dependent manner, where 3 nM Nevanimibe in the presence of 60 μg/mL Cholesterol reduces survival by 60% after 24 hours. All doses of Nevanimibe (3 nM-30 μM) induces cytoxicity in the presence of Cholesterol, whereas treatment with Cholesterol in the absence of Nevanimibe has no effect on cell viability[1]. Cell Cytotoxicity Assay[1] Cell Line: The H295R and HAC clone 15 (HAC15) human ACC cell lines Concentration: 3 nM-30 μM Incubation Time: 24 hours Result: 3 nM-3 μM exhibited no toxicity, whereas 30 μM treatment reduced survival by approximately 40% within 24 hours.
