ARN14974 is an acid ceramidase inhibitor.
The ceramides, a family of bioactive lipid-derived messengers, are involved in the control of cellular senescence, inflammation, as well as apoptosis. Ceramide hydrolysis by acid ceramidase (AC) can stop the biological activity of these substances and influence survival and function of normal and neoplastic cells.
In vitro: In a previous study, human colon adenocarcinoma SW403 cells and mouse macrophage-like Raw 264.7 cells were incubated in the presence of ARN14974. Results showed that ARN14974 could inhibit cellular AC activity with an IC50 of 825 nm in SW403 and 400 nm in Raw 264.7 cells. Moreover, consistent with these results, incubation with ARN14974 led to an increase in the levels of ceramide and a corresponding decrease in the levels of sphingosine [1].
In vivo: Injection of ARN14974 in mice was able to cause a substantial reduction in AC activity in multiple organs, including heart, lungs, brain, liver, and kidney. Highest levels of baseline AC activity and AC inhibition were found in lung tissue. As expected, the authors found a significant increase in ceramide species. Moreover, the levels of ceramides with longer fatty acyl chains were not affected. Furthermore, ARN14974 appeared to be well tolerated at the dosage tested [1].
Clinical trial: So far, no clinical study has been conducted.

转运体是介导分子或离子转运跨过生物膜的物质。通常是蛋白质或酶。说得简单一点就是“运输工具”
受体是能与细胞外专一信号分子(配体)结合引起细胞反应的蛋白质。受体与配体结合即发生分子构象变化,从而引起细胞反应,如介导细胞间信号转导、细胞间黏合、细胞胞吞等细胞过程。它起的是“传达员” 的作用
