Abstract

Considerable research efforts have focused on the discovery of safe and efficacious acyl-CoA cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) inhibitors as cholesterol-lowering and/or antiatherosclerotic agents. Although clinical success remains elusive, recent developments in the molecular biology of ACAT and success in identifying potent and bioavailable inhibitors that are not adrenotoxic has led to renewed hope that ACAT inhibition may ultimately yield agents that will have value in treating human atherosclerotic disease.
