In health care, anacetrapib (anacet'rapib) is an oxazolidinone-based medication that is a cholesteryl ester transfer protein inhibitor that raises HDL cholesterol and reduces LDL cholesterol.[1]
Anacetrapib is related to torcetrapib.[2]
Chemistry and Mechanism of Action
The chemical name of anacetrapib, distributed by Merck, is 2'-methoxy-4-(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl-2-yl]methyl]-4-methyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-one. It has a formula weight of 637.51 g/mol and its CAS registration number is 875446-37-0. Anacetrapib is an inhibitor of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP), a key protein involved in reverse cholesterol transport, and its use increases high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL). Other CETP inhibitors include dalcetrapib and torcetrapib. [3],[4]
