Inhibition of acylcoenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase activity in CaCo-2 cells results in intracellular triglyceride accumulation.
The activity of acylcoenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) in CaCo-2 cells was inhibited by the ACAT inhibitor, 58-035. The inhibitory effect of this acylamide was specific for cholesterol esterification catalyzed by ACAT; the rates of triglyceride, phospholipid, and cholesterol synthesis wer...
