Acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase 1 (ACAT-1) is a sterol O-acyltransferase that catalyzes the formation of fatty acid-cholesterol esters, an important step in lipoprotein assembly and dietary cholesterol absorption.{12931,12021} CI-976 is a potent, selective inhibitor of ACAT-1 (IC50 = 73 nM).{28323,28321} It is orally bioavailable and decreases plasma total cholesterol, very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, apolipoprotein B, liver cholesteryl esters, and VLDL and LDL cholesteryl ester content in rabbits given a diet that induces hypercholesterolemia.{28322} CI-976 also diminishes atherosclerotic activity in hypercholesterolemic rabbits.{28324}
