Acyltransferase
Diacylglycerol acyltransferase; Diglyceride acyltransferase; acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase; mono- acylglycerol acyltransferase
Acyltransferase (AT) catalyzes the transfer of an acyl moiety from acyl-coenzyme A (acyl-CoA) to an acceptor. Acyltransferases play important roles in the maintenance of homeostasis in the human body and have been linked to various diseases. The Acyltransferase family includes acyl-CoA:cholesterol AT (ACAT), diacylglycerol AT (DGAT), and monoacylglycerol AT (MGAT) for the metabolism of lipids.
ACAT (acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase) is an intracellular enzyme that catalyzes the formation of cholesterol esters from cholesterol and fatty acyl-coenzyme A. In mammals, two isoenzymes, ACAT1 and ACAT2, encoded by two different genes, exist. ACATs play important roles in cellular cholesterol homeostasis in various tissues.
DGAT (acyl-CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase) is an integral membrane enzyme that catalyses the last step of triacylglycerol synthesis from diacylglycerol and acyl-CoA. DGAT activity resides mainly in two distinct membrane bound polypeptides, known as DGAT1 and DGAT2.
MGAT (acyl-CoA:monoacylglycerol acyltransferase) catalyzes the synthesis of diacylglycerol, the precursor of physiologically important lipids such as triacylglycerol and phospholipids. In the intestine, MGAT plays a major role in the absorption of dietary fat because resynthesis of triacylglycerol is required for the assembly of lipoproteins that transport absorbed fat to other tissues.

Esculeogenin A
0 ImagesCat. No.: HY-N18066CAS No.: 854381-37-6Esculeogenin A is the sapogenol of tomato saponin Esculeoside A (HY-N18067). Esculeogenin A is an orally active hepatoprotective, hypolipidemic, and antioxidant agent. Esculeogenin A regulates molecular targets like PPARα, SREBP1, Nrf2, NF-κB, ACAT1/ACAT2 to promote hepatic fatty acid oxidation, suppress de novo lipogenesis, enhance antioxidant defense, and inhibit inflammation. Esculeogenin A improves liver function, alleviates hyperlipidemia, and inhibits hepatic steatosis and foam cell formation, preventing nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in high-fat-diet-fed rats and reducing atherosclerotic lesions in apoE-deficient mice. Esculeogenin A can be used for the research of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, atherosclerosis, and hyperlipidemia.
