JTT-553 

JTT-553 is a DGAT1 inhibitor (IC₅₀: 2.38 nM). JTT-553 reduces plasma concentrations of glucose, insulin, non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA), total cholesterol (TC), and hepatic triglycerides (TG). JTT-553 improves insulin-dependent glucose uptake and glucose intolerance in adipose tissue of DIO mice. JTT-553 reduces TNF-α mRNA levels and increases GLUT4 mRNA levels in adipose tissue of KK-Ay mice. JTT-553 improves adipose tissue insulin resistance and systemic glucose metabolism by reducing body weight. JTT-553 can be used in the study of obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)^[1][2].
