CIL56 is a small molecule that induces non-apoptotic cell death in a manner dependent on acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 (ACC1), the rate-limiting enzyme in fatty acid synthesis.1 HT-1080 cells lacking ACC1 exhibit 5-fold resistance to CIL56 treatment, indicating ACC1 activity sensitizes cells to CIL56-induced cell death. CIL56 (6.5 μM) induces accumulation of long-chain saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acids in HT-1080 cells in vitro.
