TSI-01

TSI-01 is a selective inhibitor of lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase 2 (LPCAT2) with IC₅₀ values of 0.47 and 3.02 µM for human LPCAT2 and LPCAT1, respectively. LPLAT selectively incorporates fatty chains into lysophospholipids to affect the fatty acid composition of membrane glycerophospholipids ^{[1, 2]}. TSI-01 can inhibit the production of platelet-activating factor (PAF) in macrophages, which is rapidly biosynthesized by lyso-PAF acetyltransferase (lyso-PAFAT) ^[3].

In vitro, treatment of HT29 cells with TSI-01 (10 μM) for 48 h significantly prevented lipid droplet accumulation caused by 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu) and oxaliplatin (Oxa) alone or in combination ^[4]. TSI-01 (0-30 μM) treated endometrial cancer cell lines, inhibited cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner, with IC₅₀ values of 7.56 μM and 9.31 μM in Ishikawa cell lines and HEC-1A cell lines, respectively, and promoted cell apoptosis^[5].

TSI-01是溶血磷脂酰胆碱酰基转移酶2（LPCAT2）的选择性抑制剂，对人 LPCAT2和LPCAT1的IC₅₀值分别为0.47和3.02µM。LPLAT选择性地将脂肪链掺入溶血磷脂中，以影响膜甘油磷脂的脂肪酸组成^{[1, 2]}。TSI-01可以抑制巨噬细胞中血小板激活因子（PAF）的产生，PAF由溶血PAF乙酰转移酶 （lyso-PAFAT）快速生物合成^[3]。

在体外，TSI-01（10μM）处理HT29细胞48h，显著防止了由5-氟尿嘧啶（5-Fu）和奥沙利铂（Oxa）单独或联合治疗引起的脂滴积聚^[4]。TSI-01（0-30μM）处理子宫内膜癌细胞系，剂量依赖性地抑制了细胞增殖，在Ishikawa细胞系和HEC-1A细胞系中的IC₅₀分别为7.56μM、9.31μM，并促进细胞凋亡^[5]。
