Background:
Beauveriolide III is a cyclodepsipeptide that has been found inBeauveriaand an inhibitor of lipid droplet formation.1It inhibits lipid droplet formation when used at concentrations of 3 and 10 µM, as well as inhibits cholesterol synthesis (IC50= 0.41 µM), in primary mouse peritoneal macrophages.1,2Beauveriolide III also inhibits acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) activity in mouse macrophage membranes (IC50= 5.5 µM).2Beauveriolide III (25 and 50 mg/kg) reduces the size of aortic atherosclerotic lesions inLdlr-/-andApoE-/-mouse models of atherosclerosis.
