| Core Tip |
Stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1 (SCD1) is the rate-limiting enzyme of the monounsaturated fatty acids biosynthesis that serves as substrates for de novo lipogenesis, thereby increasing the production and accumulation of triglycerides in the liver. The liver-specific inhibition of SCD1 has been shown to attenuate the development of hepatic steatosis and thus non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), as evidenced by experimental studies. The current evidence supports the view that SCD1 is a potential target and the inhibition of this enzyme would certainly help in the control and/or management of NAFLD in humans. However, certain aspects of SCD1 such as its role and regulation need to be addressed in humans to explore its potential translational applicability. |
