Application

C75 has been used:
  • as a fatty acid synthase (FASN) inhibitor to test its ability in the direct inhibition of FASN to attenuate mammosphere formation as compared to metformin
  • as a pharmacological inhibitor to inhibit fatty acid synthesis in glioma stem cells (GSCs)
  • as FAS inhibitor in the pre-treatment of Chang cells to inhibit lipogenesis and reverse the senescence induced by hydrogen peroxide

Biochem/physiol Actions

C75 helps to increase the cancer‐killing capability of ionizing radiation.
C75 is a novel, potent synthetic inhibitor of fatty acid synthase (FAS), which is used as a tool for studying fatty acid synthesis in metabolic disorders and cancer.
