1 Here, we used the selective ACAT-1 inhibitor, K-604, to measure the individual enzymatic activity of ACAT-1 and ACAT-2 in enriched fractions of mouse seminiferous tubules. (2-(4-(2-benzimidazol-2ylthio)ethyl)piperazin-1yl)-N-(2,4-bis(methylthio)-6-methyl-3-pyridyl)acetamide acetyl-Coenzyme A acetyltransferase 1 Mus musculus
2 Here, we used the selective ACAT-1 inhibitor, K-604, to measure the individual enzymatic activity of ACAT-1 and ACAT-2 in enriched fractions of mouse seminiferous tubules.

3 K-604 inhibited adult mouse ACAT-1 much more than ACAT-2 with IC(50) values of 100 and 1,000 microM, respectively, in the tubules. (2-(4-(2-benzimidazol-2ylthio)ethyl)piperazin-1yl)-N-(2,4-bis(methylthio)-6-methyl-3-pyridyl)acetamide acetyl-Coenzyme A acetyltransferase 1 Mus musculus
4 The results show that only K-604 is a useful tool to determine the individual ACAT-1 and ACAT-2 enzymatic activities in the seminiferous tubules. (2-(4-(2-benzimidazol-2ylthio)ethyl)piperazin-1yl)-N-(2,4-bis(methylthio)-6-methyl-3-pyridyl)acetamide acetyl-Coenzyme A acetyltransferase 1 Mus musculus
