A939572 exhibits robust in vivo activity with dose-dependent desaturation index lowering effects.
A939572 is a small molecule that specifically inhibits SCD1 enzymatic activity. A939572 demonstrates a significant dose-dependent decrease in proliferation in Caki1, A498, Caki2, and ACHN at day 5 (IC50s of 65 nM, 50 nM, 65 nM, and 6 nM, respectively). In A939572 (SCDi) treated Caki1 and A498 cells, all five ER stress related genes are expressed at significantly increased levels compared to DMSO+BSA control, and this elevated expression can be blocked with the addition of OA-BSA.
