Lipofermata
Based on 9 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Lipofermata is a fatty acid transport protein 2 (FATP2) inhibitor. Lipofermata shows fatty acid transport inhibition with an IC50 of 4.84 μM in Caco-2 cells. Lipofermata, an analog of spiro-indoline-thadiazole, shows zinc-specific suppression of antibacterial activity. Lipofermata perturbs zinc homeostasis in E. coli K-12 with a MIC of 16 μM.

mRNA expression of candidate genes in ALI-cultured hNECs derived from healthy individuals (n = 8) and patients with CRSwNP (n = 7). Cells were treated with or without 2 µM Lipofermata for 24 h, and mRNA levels were assessed via RT–qPCR, normalized to GAPDH mRNA levels. In NP-derived EpCs, Lipofermata treatment led to a significant decrease in the mRNA expression levels of SLC27A2, ALOX15, DUOX1, POR, CP and IL13RA1. However, no change was observed in the expression of NOS2. Interestingly, in EpCs derived from healthy individuals, no significant changes in the expression of these genes were detected upon Lipofermata treatment. These findings indicated that the inhibition of SLC27A2 specifically attenuated the expression of pathogenesis-related markers in hNECs from patients with CRSwNP.

Mouse αTC1-6 cells were preincubated with Lipofermata (1 hour, 37°C, 0-50 μM) in triplicate. BODIPY-labeled fatty acid uptake velocity was then determined. The results showed that fatty acid uptake was blocked by the FATP2 inhibitor Lipofermata.

αTC1-6 cells were preincubated with or without Lipofermata (50 μM; 1 h) or palmitate (Palm) as indicated. Glucose-stimulated GLP-1 secretion was then measured. The results demonstrated that under low- and high-glucose conditions, palmitate decreased αTC1-6 cell GLP-1 secretion, which was rescued by Lipofermata preincubation.

FATP2 blockade with Lipofermata (Lipo, 2 mg/kg; i.p.; injected at 1 day in advance, immediately before the operation, and every 2 days after the reperfusion) inhibited the increased tumour size in the fatty liver, whereas IL-1β injection offset the inhibitory effects in the mouse tumour recurrence model.
