Olumacostat glasaretil(CAT: I008445) is an acetyl-CoA carboxylase inhibitor. Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) is an enzyme involved in fatty acid synthesis, and inhibiting its activity can help regulate lipid metabolism. Olumacostat glasaretil specifically targets and inhibits the two isoforms of ACC, ACC1, and ACC2. By inhibiting ACC, it reduces the production of malonyl-CoA, a key intermediate in fatty acid synthesis, which ultimately leads to a decrease in fatty acid production. This mechanism of action makes olumacostat glasaretil a potential therapeutic option for conditions characterized by excessive sebum production, such as acne vulgaris.
