Beschreibung

Ethyl 4-(benzyloxy)benzoate is a synthetic, lipophilic, non-polar compound that is used as an inhibitor of fatty acid biosynthesis. This drug inhibits the enzyme acetyl-CoA carboxylase, which converts acetyl-CoA to malonyl-CoA, and thereby prevents the formation of fatty acids. Ethyl 4-(benzyloxy)benzoate also inhibits the synthesis of cholesterol and phospholipids in rat liver cells. This drug has been shown to lower cholesterol levels in animals. It also prevents lipogenesis by inhibiting the activity of enzymes involved in lipid synthesis, such as monooxygenases, acyl-coenzyme A:diacylglycerol acyltransferases, diacylglycerol acyltransferases, and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase.
