(Rac)-Lateritin
(Rac)-Lateritin is an acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT/SOAT) inhibitor, with IC50 values of 5.7 μM and 5.6 μM in rat liver, respectively. (Rac)-Lateritin exerts time-dependent irreversible enzyme inhibition that persists even after microsomal washing. (Rac)-Lateritin inhibits cholesterol ester formation in macrophages without altering triglyceride synthesis or other steps in oxidized low-density lipoprotein metabolism. (Rac)-Lateritin inhibits the growth of cancer cells, Gram-positive bacteria, and Candida albicans. (Rac)-Lateritin can be used in studies related to atherosclerosis, human solid tumors, mouse lymphocytic leukemia, as well as fungal and bacterial infections.
