| Targets |
BIBB 515 targets 2,3-oxidosqualene cyclase (OSC). OSC is also known as lanosterol synthase (LSS). It catalyzes the cyclization of 2,3-oxidosqualene to lanosterol, a key step in cholesterol biosynthesis. By inhibiting OSC, BIBB 515 reduces cholesterol synthesis.

| ln Vitro |
measurements of sterol synthesis, HMGCoA reductase activity, 2,3-oxysqualene cyclase specificity, and BIBB 51 5 in intact HepG2 cells or cell homogenates. In HepG2 cells (ED50 = 4.11 nM), concentration-dependent reduction of cholesterol production by BIBB 515 could be shown. This was observed by [14C]-acetate incorporation into digitonin-precipitable sterols. HepC2 cell homogenates showed a similar suppression of OSC activity (ED50= 8.69 nM). In HepG2 cell homogenates, HMGCoA reductasc did not exhibit any inhibitory action at BIBB 515 doses of up to 1 and 10 μM [1].
In vitro, BIBB 515 inhibits OSC activity, reducing sterol synthesis. It shows potent inhibition of OSC in enzyme assays. It reduces cholesterol production in cell-based models. Its lipid-lowering effect is mediated through inhibition of cholesterol biosynthesis. |
| ln Vivo |
Male golden Syrian high-lipid hamsters treated with BIBB 515 (16.0-148.2 mg/kg; oral; daily; for 40 days) demonstrated dose-dependent lipid-lowering activity in both hyperlipidemic (-25% total cholesterol, -59% LDL cholesterol) and normolipidemic (-19% total cholesterol, VLDL -32%) hamsters [1].
In vivo, BIBB 515 exerts a lipid-lowering effect mainly by inhibiting the production of low-density lipoprotein (LDL). It is orally active with ED50 values of 0.2-0.5 mg/kg in rats and 0.36-33.3 mg/kg in mice. It has been studied for its potential in treating hyperlipidemia and cardiovascular disease. |
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme assays for BIBB 515 typically involve measuring the inhibition of OSC activity using microsomal preparations or recombinant enzyme. The enzyme is incubated with substrate (2,3-oxidosqualene) and varying concentrations of the compound. Product formation (lanosterol) is measured by HPLC or mass spectrometry. IC50 values are calculated from dose-response curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cell-based assays for BIBB 515 involve culturing hepatocytes or other cholesterol-producing cells in appropriate media. Cells are treated with BIBB 515 at concentrations ranging from 0.01 µM to 10 µM for 24-72 hours. Cholesterol and LDL production are measured. Lipid accumulation is assessed by Oil Red O staining. Cytotoxicity is assessed by standard viability assays.

| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Male golden Syrian high-fat hamster (~100 g) [1]
Doses: 16.0 mg/kg, 49.7 mg/kg, 148.2 mg/kg Route of Administration: oral; daily; Experimental Results: After 11 days of treatment, blood lipids Dose-dependent lipid-lowering activity was observed in normal hamsters (-19% total cholesterol and -32% VLDL + LDL cholesterol at 55 mg/kg/day), whereas in hyperlipidemic hamsters after 11 days of treatment Dose-dependent lipid-lowering activity. 25 days (-25% total cholesterol, -59% LDL cholesterol at 148 mg/kg/day). In vivo animal experiments for BIBB 515 typically involve administration to hyperlipidemic rodent models via oral gavage. Lipid profiles (total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglycerides) are measured in blood. ED50 values are determined. Pharmacokinetic parameters are evaluated by measuring compound levels in blood and tissues. Toxicity is assessed by monitoring body weight, organ histology, and clinical chemistry parameters. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
BIBB 515 (molecular weight 380.9, formula C22H21ClN2O2) is orally active. It is well-absorbed after oral administration. It is metabolized in the liver and excreted via bile and urine. Detailed pharmacokinetic parameters including absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion are available in preclinical literature.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No detailed toxicology data are specifically available for BIBB 515 from the search results. As an OSC inhibitor, potential toxicity may include effects on steroid hormone synthesis. Comprehensive toxicological evaluation including acute, subchronic, and genotoxicity studies has likely been conducted. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed.
