  • Acipimox (K-9321) sodium, a nicotinic acid analogue, is an antilipolytic compound. Acipimox sodium stimulates leptin releas, inhibits lipolysis and suppresses systemic levels of free fatty acids (FFAs) and improves insulin sensitivity[1][2][3].

Name Acipimox sodium
Description Acipimox (K-9321) sodium, a nicotinic acid analogue, is an antilipolytic compound. Acipimox sodium stimulates leptin releas, inhibits lipolysis and suppresses systemic levels of free fatty acids (FFAs) and improves insulin sensitivity[1][2][3].

In Vitro Acipimox sodium (0-100 µM; 0-4 hours) enhances leptin release from adipocytes isolated from Sprague-Dawley rats in a time- and dose- dependent manner[2]. Acipimox sodium (10 mM) stimulats leptin release in adipocytes from Streptozotocin (STZ)-treated and Zucker diabetic fat (ZDF) rats[2].
In Vivo Acipimox sodium (50 mg/kg; i.p.) significantly lowers circulating free fatty acid (FFA) and glucose in high-fat fed mice[3]. Animal Model: Acipimox sodium (50 mg/kg; i.p.) significantly lowers circulating free fatty acid (FFA) and glucose in high-fat fed mice[3]. Dosage: 50 mg/kg Administration: Intraperitoneal injection Result: Reduced circulating levels of FFA and glucose after 3 h.
