AC-55649 is a potent, highly isoform-selective agonist of the human retinoic acid receptor beta 2 (RARβ2). It has a pEC50 of 6.9 for the human RARβ2 receptor. The compound has the molecular formula C21H26O2 and a molecular weight of 310.43. AC-55649 is a potent and selective activator of RARβ2 transcriptional activity. It is a research chemical used to study the role of RARβ2 in various biological processes.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
AC-55649 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-55649 is a highly isoform-selective agonist that specifically activates RARβ2 with a pEC50 of 6.9. Its selectivity for RARβ2 over other RAR isoforms makes it a valuable tool for studying the specific functions of RARβ2.
ln Vitro
AC-55649 is a strong, highly isoform-selective agonist with a pEC50 of 6.9 for the human RARβ2 receptor[1]. The transcriptional activity of RARβ2 is strongly and selectively activated by AC-55649 [2].
In vitro, AC-55649 is a potent and selective activator of RARβ2 transcriptional activity. It has a pEC50 of 6.9 for the human RARβ2 receptor. The compound demonstrates high isoform selectivity, potently activating RARβ2 while showing reduced activity at other RAR isoforms. AC-55649's transcriptional activity has been confirmed in reporter gene assays. The compound is soluble in DMSO at 90.0 mg/mL (289.9 mM).
ln Vivo
In vivo data for AC-55649 are limited in publicly available sources. As a potent and selective RARβ2 agonist, the compound has potential applications in studying RARβ2-mediated physiological processes. The compound is described as a potent, highly isoform-selective agonist, suggesting that it may have in vivo activity. However, specific in vivo efficacy data from animal models are not extensively reported.
Enzyme Assay
In non-cell-based receptor binding assays, AC-55649'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-55649. 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-55649 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-55649, and reporter activity is measured to quantify RARβ2 activation. These assays have established AC-55649's pEC50 of 6.9 and its selectivity profile.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for AC-55649 have not been extensively reported in publicly available sources. As a RARβ2 agonist, the compound would be expected to be evaluated in animal models relevant to RARβ2 function. The compound is described as a potent agonist, suggesting that it may have been studied in preclinical models. However, specific protocols and data are limited.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Detailed pharmacokinetic properties of AC-55649 are limited in publicly available sources. The compound is soluble in DMSO at 90.0 mg/mL (289.9 mM) and in ethanol at 25 mM. Storage conditions for the powder are -20°C for 3 years; in solvent, it can be stored at -80°C for 1 year. As a small molecule RARβ2 agonist, it is expected to have reasonable oral bioavailability.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for AC-55649 are limited in publicly available sources. As a research compound intended for laboratory use, comprehensive toxicology studies have not been extensively published. The compound is not intended for human use and should be handled with appropriate safety precautions. Its safety profile is consistent with that of other research chemicals used in preclinical studies.

Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.05 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
