Biochem/physiol Actions

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).

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

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

Stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) synthesizes monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) and has been associated with the development of metabolic syndrome, tumorigenesis, and stem cell characteristics. We investigated whether and how SCD promotes liver fibrosis and tumor development in mice. Rodent primary hepatic

Emerging literature suggests that metabolic pathways play an important role in the maintenance and progression of human cancers. In particular, recent studies have implicated lipid biosynthesis and desaturation as a requirement for tumor cell survival. In the studies reported here

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
