Altenusin, a non-steroidal fungal metabolite, is a potent and selective agonist of Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) that protects mice from high-fat diet induced obesity. Also it decreases blood glucose level, serum insulin level, and reduces lipid droplets accumulation. Altenusin inhibits trypanothione reductase from Trypanosoma cruzi.
