Atglistatin is a selective adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) inhibitor (IC50 = 0.7μM) [1]. Atglistatin inhibits ATGL and reduces the decomposition of triglycerides, thereby affecting the release of fatty acids and energy metabolism [2]. Atglistatin is mainly used to treat myocardial damage [3].
In B16-F10, C26, CT26, LLC, and HepG2 cells, Atglistatin (40μM; 50h, 100h, 150h) treatment reduced proliferation of all cancer cells [4]. In HT29 cells, Atglistatin (40μM; 24h) inhibits the migration and growth of colon cancer cells [5]. In A549 cells, Atglistatin (50μM, 100μM; 24h) slows the growth of cancer cells [6].
In isoprenaline mouse model, Atglistatin (2mM/kg; po; 7d, 14d) exerts its cardioprotective effects by modulating fatty acid release from white adipose tissue [3]. In isoprenaline (ISO) mouse model, Atglistatin (2mM/kg; po; 7d) ameliorates ISO-induced cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis [7]. In the myocardial infarction model, Atglistatin (100µM/kg; po; 2d) treated mice showed significant improvement in cardiac systolic pump function [8].

Atglistatin是一种选择性脂肪甘油三酯脂肪酶(ATGL)抑制剂(IC50 = 0.7μM) [1]。Atglistatin 抑制ATGL并减少甘油三酯的分解,从而影响脂肪酸的释放和能量代谢 [2]。Atglistatin主要用于治疗心肌损伤 [3]。
在B16-F10、C26、CT26、LLC和HepG2细胞中,Atglistatin(40μM;50h、100h、150h)处理可降低所有癌细胞的增殖 [4]。在HT29细胞中,Atglistatin(40μM;24h)可抑制结肠癌细胞的迁移和生长 [5]。在A549细胞中,Atglistatin(50μM、100μM;24h)可减缓癌细胞的生长 [6]。
