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).

This study tested the hypothesis that avasimibe, an inhibitor of acyl coenzyme A-cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT), would improve treadmill exercise performance in patients with claudication secondary to peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Four hundred and forty-two patients with PAD (ankle-brachial index in

Avasimibe, an acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase inhibitor, has been previously shown to be a potent inducer of CYP3A4 and multiple drug resistance protein 1. We have further characterized the drug interaction potential of avasimibe by studying the inductive and inhibitory effect of

This study assessed the efficacy and safety of avasimibe (CI-1011), an inhibitor of acyl coenzyme A-cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) in subjects with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH). Twenty seven subjects were enrolled in a double-blind, randomized, 3-sequence crossover trial of atorvastatin 80
