Product Information	Fatty acid synthase (FAS) inhibitor. Binds to β-keto-acyl-ACP synthase (KAS; IC50=1.5 μM), thus inhibiting protein acylation at concentrations of 45-134 μM1. Produces metabolic effects similar to the effects of leptin, but through mechanisms that are independent of, or down-stream of, both leptin and melanocortin receptors2. Reduces nutrient-induced insulin release from normal rat islets3. Induces apoptosis in human melanoma A-375 cells4.
