产品描述
BAR502 is a dual FXR and GPBAR1 agonist with IC50 values of 2 μM and 0.4 μM, respectively.
靶点（IC50 & Targe）
IC50: 2 μM (FXR), 0.4 μM (GPBAR1)[1]
体外研究
BAR502 is a truncated side chain alcohol with both substituents on ring B in α-configuration. At the concentration of 10 μM, BAR502 fails to transactivate GR, PPARγ, and LXR, respectively, but it transactivates the nuclear receptor PXR. BAR502 is able to induce the expression of pro-glucagon mRNA in GLUTAg cells, an intestinal endocrine cell line, as well as to increase cAMP concentrations in THP-1 cells. BAR502 induces the expression of OSTα, BSEP, and SHP in HepG2 cells. BAR502 shows a very potent activity in the recruitment of SRC-1 coactivator and high affinity to FXR[1].
体内研究
Treatment with BAR502 causes a 10% reduction of b.w., increases insulin sensitivity and circulating levels of HDL, while reduces steatosis, inflammatory and fibrosis scores and liver expression of SREPB1c, FAS, PPARγ, CD36 and CYP7A1 mRNA. BAR502 increases the expression of SHP and ABCG5 in the liver and SHP, FGF15 and GLP1 in intestine. BAR502 promotes the browning of epWAT and reduces liver fibrosis induced by CCl4[2]. In models of non-obstructive cholestasis, BAR502 attenuates liver injury without causing itching. Co-treatment with BAR502 increases survival, attenuates serum alkaline phosphatase levels and robustly modulates the liver expression of canonical FXR target genes including OSTα, BSEP, SHP and MDR1, without inducing pruritus[3].
动物实验
Mice: C57BL6 mice 24 weeks old are fed a high fat diet containing 60% kj fat and fructose in drinking water (42 g/L) or normal diet (6 mice) for 18 weeks. After 10 weeks of HFD, mice are randomized to receive HFD alone (9 mice) or HFD plus BAR502 (15 mg/kg/day) body weight by gavage (9 mice) for 8 weeks. Mice are housed under controlled temperatures (22 °C) and photoperiods (12:12-hour light/dark cycle), allowed unrestricted access to standard mouse chow and tap water and allowed to acclimate to these conditions for at least 5 days before inclusion in an experiment[2].MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
