OBESITY RESEARCH SOLUTIONSEndothelial lipase, a member of the triglyceride lipase gene family expressed in endothelial cells, prefers phospholipid-enriched high-density lipoprotein (HDL) over triglyceride as a substrate. XEN445 is an endothelial lipase inhibitor (IC50 = 237 nM) that demonstrates selectivity for endothelial lipase compared to lipoprotein and hepatic lipases (IC50s = 20 and 9.5 µM, respectivley).1 An oral dose of 30 mg/kg XEN445 is reported to increase HDL cholesterol concentrations by 16% after three days and by 30% after nine days dosing in wild-type mice.1
