Application
Avasimibe has been used as an inhibitor of acyl-coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) in Huh7.5.1 cells for testing its combination with direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) and to test its effect on lipid droplet accumulation in acidosis-adapted cancer cells. It may be used as an inhibitor of ACAT to assess cholesterol esterification in Trypanosoma cruzi.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Avasimibe (CI-1011) is an orally bioavailable Acyl-CoA:Cholesterol O-Acyltransferase (ACAT) inhibitor. It was originally developed as an antilepic drug, and was shown to significantly reduce plasma total triglyceride and VLDL-cholesterol, but later clinical trials were disappointing. ACAT has also been investigated as a potential therapeutic target for Alzheimer′s disease. Recent studies have looked at the effects of avasimibe in reducing amyloid pathology by limiting generation and increasing clearance of diffusible amyloid-beta (Abeta).

In vitro and clinical studies were conducted to characterize the potential of avasimibe, an acyl-CoA/cholesterol acyltransferase inhibitor to cause drug-drug interactions. Clinically, 3- and 6-fold increases in midazolam (CYP3A4 substrate) oral clearance were observed after 50 and 750 mg of

Acyl-coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) is an intracellular enzyme that catalyzes the formation of cholesterol esters from cholesterol and fatty acyl-coenzyme A. Animal experiments showed that ACAT inhibitors reduce plasma cholesterol levels by suppressing absorption of dietary cholesterol and by
