    		Inhibitor
    ELOVL6-IN-5 is an orally active and selective elongase enzyme of long-chain fatty acid family 6 (ELOVL6) inhibitor with IC50 values of 85 nM and 38 nM for human and mouse ELOVL6, respectively. ELOVL6-IN-5 shows >60-fold selectivity over other ELOVL family enzymes (ELOVL1, 2, 3, 5) and no effect on other lipid synthesis enzymes like ACC1, ACC2. ELOVL6-IN-5 reduces hepatic fatty acid composition ratio of C18 to C16 in diet-induced obesity (DIO) and KKAy mice. ELOVL6 inhibition by ELOVL6-IN-5 does not improve insulin resistance. ELOVL6-IN-5 can be used for the research of metabolic disease.
