ELOVL6-IN-5 (compound B) acts as an inhibitor targeting the elongase enzyme of the long-chain fatty acid family 6 (ELOVL6). This enzyme is pivotal in the elongation process of saturated and monounsaturated long-chain fatty acids, marking it as a strategic target for diabetes intervention. In a mouse model of diet-induced obesity (DIO), ELOVL6-IN-5 effectively reduces hepatic fatty acid levels. However, it fails to enhance insulin sensitivity.
