Abstract | BACKGROUND: METHODS: Purified FAS was obtained from chicken liver. Dried grape skin was extracted by 50% ethanol and partitioned by ethyl acetate. Inhibitory effects of GSE and resveratrol on FAS including fast-binding inhibition, time-dependent inhibition, and enzyme kinetics were determined. Inhibitory effects of GSE and resveratrol on 3T3-L1 preadipocyte were also measured. RESULTS: GSE inhibited the overall reaction and β-ketoacyl reductase (KR) reaction of FAS with IC50 values of 4.61 μg/ml and 20.3 μg/ml. For inhibition by resveratrol, the relevant IC50 values were 11.1 μg/ml and 21.9 μg/ml, respectively. And both GSE and resveratrol showed time-dependent inhibition for FAS, with the kobs values of 0.028 min-1, and 0.040 min-1 respectively. They inhibited the overall reaction of FAS competitively with acetyl-CoA, noncompetitively with malonyl-CoA and in a mixed manner with NADPH. Moreover, the inhibition on KR domain by resveratrol was time-dependent with kobs value of 0.106 min-1. In 3 T3-L1 preadipocytes, resveratrol reduced lipid accumulation remarkably. CONCLUSIONS: GSE and resveratrol are potent FAS inhibitors and they bound reversibly to the KR domain of FAS to inhibit the reduction of the saturated acyl groups in fatty acid synthesis. Based on the valid data and deliberate analysis, we proposed that GSE and resveratrol have great medical potential and officinal value in treating obesity and related diseases.
