BIBB 515
BIBB 515 is a potent and selective inhibitor of 2,3-oxidosqualene cyclase (OSC), a key enzyme in sterol biosynthesis. It effectively reduces cholesterol levels in rodent models, as demonstrated in studies with normolipemic and hyperlipemic hamsters, making it a valuable research tool for investigating lipid metabolism and related disorders.
