Ordering Information

Biological Activity

Avasimibe (CI-1011) is an orally bioavailable acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) inhibitor that also targets cytochrome P450 isoenzymes CYP2C9, CYP1A2, and CYP2C19. By inhibiting ACAT, it blocks intracellular cholesterol esterification, leading to reduced hepatic secretion and pool sizes of VLDL and LDL apolipoprotein B. Additionally, Avasimibe induces CYP3A4 and multidrug resistance protein 1 expression, altering lipid homeostasis and drug metabolism pathways. [1]

FAQ
Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
  • Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
  • Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
  • For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
  • Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
