| Targets |
AC-261066 targets the retinoic acid receptor beta 2 (RARβ2), a nuclear receptor that regulates gene expression in response to retinoic acid. RARβ2 is involved in various physiological processes, including cell differentiation, proliferation, and apoptosis. AC-261066 is an isoform-selective agonist that specifically activates RARβ2 with high potency. Its selectivity for RARβ2 over RARβ1, RARα, and RARγ makes it a valuable tool for studying the specific functions of RARβ2.

| ln Vitro |
In port (F oral = 52%), AC-261066 has good oral bioavailability [1].
In vitro, AC-261066 demonstrates potent agonist activity at RARβ2 with a pEC50 of 8.0-8.1. It exhibits selectivity over RARβ1 (pEC50 = 6.4), RARα (pEC50 = 6.2), and RARγ (pEC50 = 6.3). The compound's potency and selectivity have been confirmed in various in vitro assays, including reporter gene assays and binding studies. AC-261066 is more potent than AC 55649. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, AC-261066 exhibits good oral bioavailability in rats, with a reported Foral of 52%. The compound is orally available and has been shown to be effective in preclinical models. Its in vivo activity is consistent with its potent in vitro agonist activity at RARβ2. Detailed in vivo efficacy data from specific animal models are limited in publicly available sources but are supported by the compound's oral bioavailability and preclinical characterization.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In non-cell-based receptor binding assays, AC-261066's affinity for RARβ2 is evaluated using radioligand competition binding experiments. Nuclear receptor preparations or purified RAR proteins are incubated with a radiolabeled RAR ligand and varying concentrations of AC-261066. After incubation, bound and free radioligand are separated, and radioactivity is measured. Competition curves are generated to determine IC50 and Ki values, confirming the compound's potent binding affinity for RARβ2.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cellular assays for AC-261066 involve measuring its agonist activity at RARβ2 using reporter gene assays. Cells are transfected with a reporter construct containing a retinoic acid response element (RARE) upstream of a luciferase or other reporter gene, along with expression constructs for RARβ2 and its heterodimer partner RXR. Cells are treated with AC-261066, and reporter activity is measured to quantify RARβ2 activation. These assays have established AC-261066's pEC50 of 8.0-8.1 and its selectivity profile.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies for AC-261066 have been conducted in rat models to evaluate its oral bioavailability and pharmacological effects. The compound exhibited good oral bioavailability (Foral = 52%) in rats. Specific efficacy studies in animal models of diseases relevant to RARβ2 signaling would be required to fully characterize its therapeutic potential. The compound's oral availability makes it suitable for in vivo studies.

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).
