Microsomal Triglyceride Transfer Protein (MTP)

Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) is a heterodimer chaperone consisting of a 97-kDa lipid-binding and -transfer subunit and a 55-kDa protein disulfide isomerase (PDI). MTP was first identified as an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) resident protein that helps in the transfer of neutral lipids to nascent apolipoprotein B (apoB). MTP is predominantly expressed in hepatocytes and enterocytes and is required for the assembly and secretion of VLDL and chylomicrons by the liver and intestine, respectivel. Its critical role in the assembly and secretion of apoB-containing lipoproteins was identified in abetalipoproteinemia patients who have mutations in MTP and completely lack apoB-containing lipoproteins in the circulation. It has been established now that MTP not only is involved in the transfer of neutral lipids but also plays a role in cholesterol ester and cluster of differentiation 1d (CD1d) biosynthesis. Besides neutral lipids, MTP may also help in the transfer of sphingolipids such as ceramides and sphingomyelin to the apoB-containing lipoproteins.

    Lomitapide mesylate
    Inhibitor 99.61%
    Lomitapide (AEGR-733; BMS-201038) mesylate is an orally active microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) inhibitor and a selective mTORC1 inhibitor with lipid-lowering activity and BBB permeability. Lomitapide mesylate significantly reduces plasma LDL levels by blocking the assembly and secretion of very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL). Lomitapide mesylate inhibits mTORC1 in an ATP-dependent manner, thereby inducing AMPK-independent autophagic cell death and suppressing cancer cell growth and apoptosis. Lomitapide mesylate also enhances tumor infiltration of CD8+ T cells. In addition, Lomitapide mesylate inhibits HDAC, improves endothelial function, effectively alleviates vascular inflammation and oxidative stress, and exerts neuroprotective effects in a cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury model. Lomitapide mesylate can be used in research on related diseases such as colorectal cancer, breast cancer, melanoma, ischemic stroke, and familial hypercholesterolemia.
