1 Simultaneous Targeting of NPC1 and VDAC1 by Itraconazole Leads to Synergistic Inhibition of mTOR Signaling and Angiogenesis. Itraconazole NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1 Homo sapiens
2 In this study, we demonstrate that cholesterol trafficking inhibition by itraconazole is due to direct inhibition of the lysosomal protein NPC1. Itraconazole NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1 Homo sapiens
3 We further map the binding site of itraconazole to the sterol-sensing domain of NPC1 using mutagenesis, competition with U18666A, and molecular docking. Itraconazole NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 1 Homo sapiens
