Product Information
Name:FASN-IN-3
Brand:Biosynth
Description:FASN-IN-3 is a chemical compound that functions as a selective inhibitor of fatty acid synthase (FASN), which is an enzyme crucial for the biosynthesis of fatty acids. It is typically synthesized through complex organic chemistry techniques aimed at robust and precise inhibitory action. The mode of action involves the potent binding to the FASN enzyme, thereby obstructing its activity. This disruption hinders the conversion of acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA into long-chain fatty acids, a process vital for cellular lipid synthesis and energy storage.
FASN-IN-3 finds its applications primarily in cancer research, where the overexpression of FASN is often linked to the progression and survival of tumor cells. By inhibiting FASN, FASN-IN-3 can induce apoptosis and reduce the proliferation of cancer cells, making it a potential candidate for therapeutic development. Additionally, it serves as a valuable tool for studying metabolic pathways and the role of lipid biosynthesis in various diseases, providing insights that can drive forward biochemical research and therapeutic strategies.
