Inhibitors that can inhibit expression of FAM3B gene to reduce the levels of expression products, or can combine the expression products to reduce the activity of promoting lipid synthesis of FAM3B gene product are provided, wherein the inhibitors are one or more inhibitors selected from the group consisting of small interfering RNAs, antisense oligonucleotides, antibodies against FAM3B proteins and active organic compounds. Cells, vectors or inhibitor compositions, comprising such inhibitors, methods for inhibiting expression of FAM3B gene or inhibiting the activity of promoting lipid synthesis of FAM3B gene product using the inhibitors are provided. Methods for treating diseases mediated by expression of FAM3B gene using such inhibitors and uses of the inhibitors in preparing pharmaceuticals for preventing and/or treating the disease mediated by FAM3B gene expression are also provided.
