FAS Inhibitor, C75

Background: Inhibitor of fatty acid synthase (FAS) reducing food intake and body weight in mice. Exhibits irreversible slow-binding biphasic inactivation of FAS. Down regulates neuropeptide Y and Agouti-related protein expression. Has been proposed to activiate CPT-1 activity in liver and adipose tissue, leading to increased fatty acid oxidation and energy production. Shows significant in vivo antitumor activity in human breast cancer cells.Suppresses DNA replication and induces apoptosis. FAS inhibition by C75 leads to dramatic accumulation of the CDK inhibitor p27KIP1 from cytosol to cell nuclei.

Small volumes of FAS Inhibitor, C75 biochemical vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.
