FB23 is a potent and selective inhibitor of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) demethylase FTO (fat mass and obesity associated protein). It moderately inhibits proliferation of NB4 and MONOMAC6 cells. FB23 demonstrates its potent inhibitory impact in AML models.

FB23 is a potent and selective FTO demethylase inhibitor with an IC50 of 60 nM. FB23 directly binds to FTO and selectively inhibits FTO's mRNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) demethylase activity[1].
