N-(n-Butyl)deoxygalactonojirimycin (NB-DGJ) is an inhibitor of the glycolipid biosynthesis enzyme glucosylceramide synthase and the glycolipid catabolic enzymes glucocerebrosidase (GBA) and ?-glucosidase 2 (GBA2).{31624,49490,49491,49492,50926} It also inhibits acid ?-glucosidase, sucrase, maltase, and lactase.{49492} NB-DGJ (0.5-500 µM) reduces glycolipid levels in HL-60 and WEHI-3B cells.{31624} It decreases brain ganglioside levels in a Glb1-/- neonatal mouse model of GM1 gangliosidosis when administered intraperitoneally at doses of 600 and 1,200 mg/kg four times per day for three days.{31622} NB-DGJ (1-1,200 mg/kg per day for 35 days) increases testicular glucosylceramide levels in mice.{49490} NB-DGJ induces abnormal spermatid and acrosome formation, as well as reduces motility, in isolated mouse epididymal sperm when administered at doses of 15, 25, and 50 mg/kg per day.{50926} It also induces infertility, an effect that is reversed by withdrawal, in the same model.
