          Background

          ETC-1002 is an oral ACL inhibitor (IC50= 29 μM) and AMPK activator. In vitro, ETC-1002 increased levels of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) phosphorylation, reduced activity of MAP kinases and decreased production of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines. These effects on soluble mediators of inflammation can be significantly abrogated by LKB1 siRNAs, indicating that ETC-1002 activates AMPK and exerts its anti-inflammatory effects via an LKB1-dependent mechanism. [1]In vivo, ETC-1002 suppressed thioglycollate-induced homing of leukocytes into mouse peritoneal cavity. ETC-1002 restored adipose AMPK activity, reduced JNK phosphorylation, and diminished expression of macrophage-specific marker 4F/80 in a mouse model of diet-induced obesity. [1]In clinical trial, ETC-1002 reduced low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) and other lipids and improved in high-sensitivity C-reactive protein in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypercholesterolemia without worsening glycemic control. ETC-1002 was low toxicity in this population. [2]
