Therapeutic Target Details
| Target ID: | T16 |
| Target Name: | Niemann-Pick C1-like protein 1 |
| Synonyms: | Niemann-Pick C1-like protein 1 precursor; NPC1L1 |
| GENE: | NPC1L1 |
| Action: | inhibitor |
| Class: | Membrane other |
| UniProtKB ID: | Q9UHC9 |
| Entry Name: | NPCL1_HUMAN |
| Related Drugs: | Ezetimibe |
| Mechanism: | Duodenal NPC1L1 expression was decreased in NAFLD and was negatively correlated with LXR expression in PMN cells. The livers of Ad‑L1 mice represent a more human‑like state for the study of hepatic autophagy. Hepatic expression of human NPC1L1 resulted in an inhibition of autophagy; it may contribute to alcoholic fatty liver disease in humans. |
