Biological Activity

OSBPL7-IN-1 is an orally active oxysterol binding protein like 7 (OSBPL7) inhibitor. OSBPL7-IN-1 promotes an increase of ABCA1 at the plasma membrane without affecting mRNA expression[1]. OSBPL7-IN-1 (compound G or Cpd G; 1-10 μM) increase plasma membrane ATP-binding cassette transporter (ABCA1) in cultured human podocytes, and significantly increase ABCA1-dependent cholesterol efflux[1]. OSBPL7-IN-1 (100 mg/kg; oral gavage; daily; for 28 days) treatment normalizes proteinuria and prevents renal function decline in mouse models of proteinuric kidney disease[1].
