Adipocyte fatty acid binding protein (A-FABP/aP2) is a carrier protein expressed in both adipocytes and macrophages where it functions in intracellular fatty acid solubilization, trafficking, and metabolism.{11977} Molecular disruption of A-FABP/aP2 in mice results in improved insulin sensitivity and protection from atherosclerosis.{12288,14840} HTS 01037 is a high-affinity ligand of adipocyte fatty acid binding protein (A-FABP/aP2) (Ki = 0.67 μM) that presumably competes with fatty acids for functional binding in the ligand-binding cavity of A-FABP/aP2.{18878} At a concentration of 10 μM, HTS 01037 antagonizes the protein-protein interaction of A-FABP/aP2 with hormone sensitive lipase in cultured C8PA lipocytes. {18878} HTS 01037 inhibits lipolysis in 3T3L1 adipocytes and reduces lipopolysaccharide-stimulated inflammation in bone marrow-derived macrophages, both effects of which are similar to the phenotype of A-FABP/aP2 knockout mice.{18878}

Description

A high-affinity ligand of A-FABP/aP2 (Ki = 0.67 μM); shown to antagonize the protein-protein interaction of A-FABP/aP2 with hormone sensitive lipase in cultured C8PA lipocytes; presumably competes with fatty acids for functional binding in the ligand-binding cavity of A-FABP/aP2
