| Bioactivity | Dalcetrapib (JTT-705) is an orally active cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) inhibitor with IC50s of 204.6 nM and 6 μM against recombinant human (rh) CETP and human plasma CETP, respectively[1][2]. | ||||||||||||
| Target | IC50: 204.6 nM (rhCETP), 6 μM (human plasma CETP) | ||||||||||||
| Invitro | Dalcetrapib (JTT-705) (0.1-10 μM; 21 h) dose-dependently increases pre-β-HDL formation[1].Dalcetrapib (0-30 μM; 24 h) inhibits the CETP activity of media in HepG2 in a dose-dependent manner[3]. | ||||||||||||
| In Vivo | Dalcetrapib (JTT-705) (30 or 100 mg/kg; p.o.; once a day for 3 days) increases plasma HDL cholesterol in rabbits[2].Dalcetrapib (100 mg/kg; i.g.; twice daily for 7 days) significantly increases fecal elimination of neutral sterols, bile acids, and plasma HDL-cholesterol[1].
