General description

(+)-Etomoxir sodium salt hydrate belongs to oxirane carboxylic acid group of compounds and mediates metabolic channeling of fatty acid precursors. It favors oxidative stress in T cells and prevents T cell differentiation. It inhibits fatty acid oxidation and promotes hunger and food intake. Etomoxir impairs myeloid-derived suppressor cells mediated tumor and could have potential therapeutic potential.

Application

(+)-Etomoxir sodium salt hydrate has been used as an inhibitor of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT-1) in breast tumor cell lines and mice tumor. It has also been used as an inhibitor of fatty acid oxidation in human primary prostate epithelial cells and lymphocytes.
