| Bioactivity | S-2E is an orally active and noncompetitive HMG-CoA reductase and acetyl-CoA carboxylase inhibitor. S-2E has an anti-hyperlipidemic action. S-2E has the potential for familial hypercholesterolemia and mixed hyperlipidemia research[1][2]. |
| In Vivo | In the liver, S-2E is converted into its active metabolite, S-2E-CoA. S-2E-CoA noncompetitively inhibits the enzymatic activities of both 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme-A (HMG-CoA) reductase and acetyl-CoA carboxylase at Ki=18.11 μM and Ki=69.2 μM, respectively[1].S-2E (3-30 mg/kg) given orally suppresses the secretion rate of very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL)-cholesterol and triglyceride in Triton WR-1339-injected rats. Furthermore, S-2E lowers the blood total cholesterol and triglyceride levels simultaneously in Zucker fatty rats[1]. |
