Discovery of selective ACAT2 antagonist via a combination strategy based on deep docking, pharmacophore modelling, and molecular dynamics simulation

Acyl-CoA: cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT), a pivotal enzyme in the absorption and metabolism of cholesterol, is primarily responsible for intracellular esterification. ACAT inhibition is expected to diminish plasma lipid levels by impeding intestinal cholesterol absorption, thereby preventing the...
