Background:
NB-598 is a potent and competitive inhibitor of squalene epoxidase (SE), and suppresses triglyceride biosynthesis through the farnesol pathway.
NB598 (10 μM) causes a 36±7% reduction in total cholesterol level of MIN6 cells. NB598 causes a significant decrease in cholesterol by 49±2%, 46±7%, and 48±2% from PM, ER, and SG, respectively. NB598 dose-dependently inhibits insulin secretion under both basal (1 mM glucose) and glucose-stimulated (16.7 mM glucose) conditions. NB598 at concentrations up to 10 μM does not affect peak outward KV currents or the voltage dependence of activation but increases current inactivation[1]. NB-598 (10 μM) inhibits the synthesis of sterol and sterol ester from [14C]acetate without affecting the synthesis of other lipids such as phospholipids (PL), free fatty acids (FFA) and triacylglycerol (TG). In the absence of exogenous liposomal cholesterol, NB-598 reduces ACAT activity by 31%. NB-598 reduces ACAT activity by 22% even in the presence of a 600 PM concentration of liposomal cholesterol[2]. NB-598 suppresses the secretion of cholesterol and triacylglycerol from HepG2 cells into the medium[3].
