Background
A922500 is a potent, active, selective and orally bioavailable inhibitor of diacylglycerol acyltransferase-1 (DGAT-1). It is a small molecular with the formula of C26H24N2O4 and molecular weight of 428.48. A922500 inhibits human DGAT-1 with an IC50 value of 9 nM, but does not inhibit other acyltransferases, such as DGAT-2, ACAT-1 and ACAT-2. [1] Diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) catalyzes esterification of 1,2-diacylglycerol (DAG) with fatty acyl-CoA to form triglycerides (TG) at the endoplasmic reticulum.[2]
