Effect of perilla oil on the fatty acid composition, ACAT and HMG-CoA reductase in the liver microsomes, or cholesterol and protein in serum of rabbit were examined. 1. The content of total protein in serum was almost same amount of both groups, but ${\alpha_1}-globulin$ and r-globuline were incresed or ${\beta}-globulin$ was decresed compared with control. 2. The content of high density lipoprotein incresed, and the content of low density lipoprotein decresed in lipoprotein. 3. Total cholesterol and triglyceride were decresed, and the content of phospholipid was incresed. 4. Perilla oil did not effect for changing blood glucose and $Na^+,\;K^+$ electrolytes. 5. Perilla oil did not effect for changing serum GOT and GPT in rabbit. 6. The activity of ACAT decresed and the activity of HMG-CoA reductase incresed. The activity of ACAT and HMG-CoA reductase in liver microsomes were reciprocal. 7. There were arachidonic acid 20:4, eicosapentaenoic acid 20:5, and docosahexaenoic acid 22:6 in the liver microsomes of rabbits. These highly polyunsaturated fatty acids were convented from linolenic acid 18:3 n-3.

Nine sesquiterpene lactones, which were isolated from Hemisteptia lyrata Bunge, Chrysanthemum zawadskii Herbich var. latilobum Kitamura and Chrysanthemum boreale Makino were evaluated for the inhibition upon the nitric oxide release from the Raw cell and for the ACAT (acyl Co A: cholesterol acyltransferase) inhibitory assay. In the nitric oxide release inhibitory experiment, hemistepsin B $(IC_{50}\;=\;0.05\;{\mu}g/ml,\;0.15\;{\mu}M),$ cumambrin B, tulipinolide and costunolide exhibited strong inhibition with $IC_{50}$ values $0.05\;{\mu}g/ml\;(0.15\;{\mu}M),\;0.1\;{\mu}g/ml\;(0.38\;{\mu}M),\;0.2\;{\mu}g/ml\;(0.69\;{\mu}M)$ and $0.2\;{\mu}g/ml(0.86\;{\mu}M),$ respectively. In the ACAT inhibitory assay, angeloylcumambrin B, tigloylcumambrin B, tulipinolide and costunolide exhibited strong inhibition with $IC_{50}$ values $33\;{\mu}g/ml\;(95.4\;{\mu}M),\;22\;{\mu}g/ml\;(63.6\;{\mu}M),\;38\;{\mu}g/ml\;(151\;{\mu}M)$ and $17\;{\mu}g/ml(73.3\;{\mu}M),$ respectively, whereas other compounds did not exhibit significant activity against ACAT above $100\; {\mu}g/ml.$.

A novel series of imidazo[1,2-$\alpha$]pyridines was designed, synthesized, and tested for their ability to inhibit acyl- CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase. Preliminary lead optimization efforts resulted in the identification of ACAT inhibitors represented by analogues 5b, 5c, 6a, 6c, 7b, and 7c. The ACAT inhibitory activity of these compounds was further established by potent inhibition of cholesteryl ester formation in HepG2 cells by a representative analogue 7b.

A series of 2-alkyl or 2-arylthio-5,8-dimethoxy-1,4-naphthoquinones (2-Thio-DMNQ, 5a-s) and 2-alkylamino-5,8- dimethoxy-1,4-naphthoquinones (2-Amino-DMNQ, 6a-k) was synthesized and evaluated for their ACAT inhibitory activities. Among them, the 2-dodecylthio-DMNQ 5l and 2-isobutylamidoundodecylthio-DMNQ 5r showed the most potent ACAT inhibitory activities with $IC_{50}$ value of 22.8 and 24.4 ${\mu}M$, respectively. In a structure-activity relationship study, 2-thio-DMNQs with side chains of carbon number 11 $\sim$ 15 exhibited significant ACAT inhibitory activities.

Acyltransferase (AT) catalyzes the transfer of an acyl moiety from acyl-coenzyme A (acyl-CoA) to an acceptor. ATs play important roles in the maintenance of homeostasis in the human body and have been linked to various diseases; therefore, several ATs have been proposed as potential targets for the treatment or prevention of such diseases. The AT family includes acyl-CoA:cholesterol AT (ACAT), diacylglycerol AT, and monoacylglycerol AT for the metabolism of lipids. Furthermore, recent molecular biological studies revealed the existence of their isozymes with distinct functions in the body. ACAT plays a critical role in the formation of cholesteryl esters from cholesterol and fatty acids, and is a potential target for treating hypercholesterolemia. During an experiment designed to discover biologically active compounds from herbal medicines, we isolated two known guaianolide sesquiterpene lactones from Chrysanthemum boreale Makino (Compositae). The lactones were characterized from their spectroscopic data (NMR, IR, MASS). These compounds were subjected to ACAT inhibition assay. Here, we report the isolation and structural elucidation of the compounds 8-o-acetyl-2-methoxy-10-hydroxy-3,11(13)-guaiadiene-12,6-olide and 8-acetyl-3,10-hydroxy-4(15),11(13)-guaiadiene-12,6-olide. In the ACAT inhibition assay, compound 1 showed strong inhibitory activity, with an $IC_{50}$ value $45{\mu}g/mL$, whereas compound 2 did not exhibit significant inhibitory activity with an over $100{\mu}g/mL$.

80% MeOH extract of black rices fractionated with n-hexane, EtOAc, and n-BuOH. Copper-induced LDL oxidation inhibition assay and ACAT inhibition assay examined with fractions. n-Hexane and EtOAc fractions showed high inhibition activity. We divided n-hexane fraction into three sub-layers(H1 - H3) and EtOAc into eight sub-layers(E1 - E8). H1, H2, E6, and E7 are showed higher inhibition activity than standard in Lp-PLA2 inhibition assay and H1 and E6 are showed higher ACAT inhibition activity than standard.

Acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT, EC 2.3.1.26) plays an important role in the control of intracellular free cholesterol content via its cholesterol esterifying activity. ACAT inhibitors are expected to be effective for treatment of atherosclerosis and hypercholesterolemia. In the course of a screening program for ACAT inhibitors from microbial sources, GERI-BP001 M, A, and B were isolated from the fermentation broth of a fungal strain. GERI-BP001 compounds were isolated from a culture broth of Aspergillus fumigatus F37 by acetone extraction, EtOAc extraction, SiO$_2$ column chromatography, and reverse phase HPLC. The structure of GERI-BP001 coumpounds were determined by $^1$H-NMR, $\^$l3/C-NMR, 2D-NMR, NOESY, and long range C-H COSY experiments. GERI-BP001 M, A, and B inhibit ACAT activity in an enzyme assay system using rat liver microsomes by 50% at concentrations of 75, 147, and 71 ${\mu}$M, respectively.
