Cerulenin is a widely used natural inhibitor of fatty acid synthase (FAS).
In primary rat aortic endothelial cells, the inhibitor of fatty acid synthase and HMG-CoA reductase, Cerulenin (5 μg/mL) and Lovastatin, are used before palmitic acid added. The mRNA expression of IL-1β, TNFα, VCAM-1 and IL-6 are reduced while NO production is recovered with inhibitor treatment[2].
In ob/ob mice, cerulenin effectively depletes fat content in the steatotic liver, which trigger a series of reactions: Decreased expression of PPARα and γ reduced UCP2 levels, increase liver ATP content, and reduce ROS production. Elevated intracellular ATP levels and reduced ROS ultimately improved liver function.
