IC50: 0.022 μM for H2122 cells

SW203668 is a stearoyl CoA desaturase inhibitor.

The enzyme of stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) is the rate-limiting enzyme in the synthesis of monounsaturated fatty acids such as palmitoleic acid and oleic acid, which are two most abundant monounsaturated fatty acids in human membranes, plasma lipids as well as adipose tissue. Though the endogenous synthesis of fatty acids in humans is not significant in most circumstances, it is increasingly becoming evident that SCD plays key structural and metabolic roles.

In vitro: By the screening, the optimized benzothiazole SW203668 was found to be selectively toxic to various cell lines (IC50 = 0.022-0.116 μM). Moreover, the ectopic expression of CYP4F11 in H1155, an SW203668-insensitive cell line, led to its sensitization to toxicity by SW203668 and therefore these results confirmed that CYP4F11 could also activate SW203668 [1].
