Description

C75 is a specific inhibitor of fatty acid synthase (FASN/FAS) with moderate inhibitory activity, showing an IC50 value of 15.53 μM[1]. It is used in research on obesity and cancer to explore the connection between fatty acid synthesis, energy metabolism, tumor growth, and survival. C75 is also an effective activator of CPT1A[2].

In vitro, it inhibits PC3 cell growth with a 24-hour IC50 of 35μM and reduces the growth of LNCaP spheroids in a concentration-dependent manner with an IC50 of 50μM[3]. Additionally, C75-mediated CPT 1A activation inhibits EMT, as indicated by reduced migration and α-SMA expression in HK-2 cells[4].

In vivo, C75 injection suppresses fasting-induced c-Fos expression in specific hypothalamic nuclei and reduces mouse feeding by ≥ 95% within 2 hours at a dose of 30 mg/kg[5]. In DIO mice, C75 treatment led to a 50% weight loss and a 32.9% increase in energy production due to fatty acid oxidation[2].

Protocol

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

HepG 2、SMMC 7721、Hep 3B cells

Preparation method

Cells (5.0 x 106/10 cm dish) were treated with C75 for the indicated time intervals. Control cells received equivalent amounts of DMSO alone. FAS activity of cytoplasmic fractions of cells was measured by fluorescence quantification after exposure to 15 μg/ml C75 for 15 or 30 min.

Reaction Conditions

15 μg/ml ; 15 or 30 min.

Applications

Treatment of cells with C75 (15 μg/ml initial dose) produced significant reductions in FAS activity in HepG2 and Hep3B cells within 15 min, and in SMMC7721 cells within 30 min.

Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

Twelve-week-old DIO C57BL6J male mice

Preparation method

DIO C57BL6J mice were fed a synthetic diet consisting of 60% calories from fat after weaning. Mice were maintained on a 12-h light-dark cycle at 25°C for 1 week before treatment. C75 and etomoxil were dissolved in RPMI medium 1640 and injected intraperitoneally at the indicated doses. Three mice were treated with C75 (20 mg/kg) on day 0. Subsequent doses were administered as follows: 15 mg/kg on day 2; 10 mg/kg on day 4; 15 mg/kg. On days 6 and 8, four mice received RPMI medium 1640.

Dosage form

10-20 mg/kg; i.p.

Applications

In DIO mice, C75 treatment led to a 50% weight loss and a 32.9% increase in energy production due to fatty acid oxidation
