4-(2-Chlorophenoxy)-N-(3-(methylcarbamoyl)phenyl)piperidine-1-carboxamide, 4-(2-Chlorophenoxy)-N-[3-[(methylamino)carbonyl]phenyl]-1-piperidinecarboxamide, A 939572, A939
A939572 is an orally available piperidine-aryl urea-based small molecule that inhibits stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1 (SCD1) with high potency (IC50 = 37 nM/hSCD1 and <4 nM/mSCD1) with little hERG channel blockade activity (IC50 >100 μM). When administered in ob/ob mice, A939572 effectively reduces desaturation indices in vivo (18:0/18:1n9 ratio from 26.9 to 8.47 in liver; from 15.4 to 7.35 in plasma post 5-day 10 mg/kg bid p.o.). A939572 is a useful tool for probing SCD1-mediated physiological and pathological processes both in cultures (50 nM-10 μM) and in vivo (5-10 mg/kg i.p. or 10 mg/kg p.o. in mice).
Orally available, potent and selective stearoyl-CoA-desaturase 1 (SCD1) inhibitor.

Autophagy is indispensable for the proper architecture and flawless functioning of pancreatic β-cells. A growing body of evidence indicates reciprocal communication between autophagic pathways, apoptosis, and intracellular lipids. The way in which elevated levels of free saturated or unsaturated FAs

We investigated the functional role and clinical significance of stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1 (SCD1) mediated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in regulating liver tumor-initiating cells (T-ICs) and sorafenib resistance, with the aim of developing a novel therapeutic strategy against hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs). We
Inhibition of stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1 (SCD1) has been found to effectively suppress tumor cell proliferation and induce apoptosis in numerous neoplastic lesions. However, mechanism underlying SCD1-mediated anti-tumor effect has maintained unclear. Herein, we reported endo-lipid messenger ceramides played a critical

Obesity and associated complications are becoming a pandemic. Inhibiting adipogenesis is an important intervention for the treatment of obesity. Despite intensive investigations, numerous mechanistic aspects of adipogenesis remain unclear, and many potential therapeutic targets have yet to be discovered. Transcriptomics
