          Background

          (R)-(+)-Etomoxir sodium salt is an irreversible inhibitor of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1(CPT-1)[1].
          Etomoxir (100 μM) has no effect on T cells cultured in high glucose. In contrast, there is a significant increase in apoptosis in etomoxir-treated cultures stimulated with antigen under low glucose conditions[2].
          C57BL/6 mice treated with Etomoxir (15 mg/kg, i.p) reduce the infiltration of immune cells in the central nervous system. Only a small number of macrophages, activated microglia or T cells are present, while reducing the inflammatory response and Demyelinating reaction[2].
