Usage And Synthesis

Description

Oxidosqualene cyclase (OSC) is a microsomal enzyme that catalyzes the cyclization of monooxidosqualene to lanosterol in the cholesterol synthetic pathway. Ro 48-8071 is an inhibitor of oxidosqualene cyclase (OSC) that has low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol lowering activity similar to the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) inhibitor simvastatin. It inhibits OSC from human liver microsomes and HepG2 cells with IC₅₀ values of approximately 6.5 nM and 1.5 nM, respectively. Ro 48-8071 lowered LDL cholesterol ~40% in hamsters at a dose of 150 μg/kg without affecting high-density lipoprotein levels and with no sign of liver toxicity. Ro 48-8071 increases cytochrome P3A mRNA and protein levels in primary rat and murine hepatocyte cultures with a maximal effect at 30 μM.

Uses

Ro 48-8071 is an inhibitor of oxidosqualene cyclase.

Definition

ChEBI: An aromatic ketone that is 2-fluoro-4'-bromobenzophenone in which the hydrogen at position 4 (meta to the fluoro group) is replaced by a 6-[methyl(prop-2-en-1-yl)amino]hexyl}oxy group. An inhibitor of lanosterol synthase.

in vivo

Ro 48-8071 lowers LDL-C maximally appr 60% at 150 μmol/kg per day, with no further reduction up to 300 μmol/kg per day, leaving HDL-C unchanged at all doses in hamsters. Ro 48-8071 (≥00 μmol/kg per day) increases the amount of MOS in liver of hamsters. Ro 48-8071 (300 μmol/kg per day) remarkedly and significantly reduces VLDL secretion of hamsters^[1]. Ro 48-8071 (5 or 20 mg/kg) significantly reduces in vivo tumor growth in mice, without weight loss of the mice. Furthermore, Ro 48-8071 at a concentration of 20 mg/kg, completely eradicates two of the 12 tumors being monitored in the mice in the timeframe tested^[2]. Ro 48-8071 (20 mg/day/kg body weight) leads to a rapid and sustained inhibition (>50%) of cholesterol synthesis in the whole small intestine of BALB/c mice. Sterol synthesis is also reduced in the large intestine and stomach^[4].
