Pyripyropene A is a potent and specific inhibitor of sterol O-acyltransferase 2 (SOAT2) or acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase 2 (ACAT2) with the potential to be used for atherosclerosis. ACAT is a key enzyme for cholesteryl ester accumulation in atherogenesis, lipoprotein formation in liver, and cholesterol absorption from intestines, all of which are events that contribute to the atherosclerotic process.
