Etomoxir is a novel, potent and irreversible (covalent) inhibitor of carnitine palmitoyltransferase-1 (CPT-1) on the outer face of the inner mitochondrial membrane. It inhibits β-oxidation in mitochondria; shown to inhibit cardiolipin biosynthesis from exogenous fatty acid in H9c2 cells. Etomoxir has also been identified as a direct agonist of PPARα. Etomoxir is a compound that binds irreversibly to the catalytic site of CPT-1 inhibiting its activity, but also upregulates fatty acid oxidation enzymes.
ln Vitro |
When etomoxir binds irreversibly to CPT-1's catalytic site, it inhibits CPT-1's activity while simultaneously increasing transplantation oxidase. Etomoxir was created as a probe for the outer mitochondrial membrane-localized mitochondrial carnitine scaffold amplification enzyme-1 (CPT-1). Etomoxir stimulates DNA synthesis and myocardial development in the myocardium by acting as an oxisome proliferator. Consequently, etomoxan is regarded as a PPARalpha agonist in addition to a CPT1 [1]. Etomoxir has been proposed as a target for activation of cardiac mutations. It is a member of the ethylene oxide kinase carnitine template transferase I family. Carnitine template transferase I activity is irreversibly transcribed upon activation of Etomoxir therapy. Consequently, there is a decrease in base import as mitochondria and beta-oxidation, leading to an increase in cytoplasmic accumulation and oxidation. Etomoxir's long delays (24 hours) have even distinct impacts on the expression of enzymes [2].

ln Vivo |
Etomoxir is a transcription factor that is involved in free equilibrium (FFA) oxidation and is linked to the important enzyme CPT1. Further supporting the direct response of P53 and Bax, as well as the role of FAO-mediated catalytic ROS production in the db/db model, is the fact that P53 directly responds to Bax, and Bax is blocked by etomoxir [3]. At a dose of 20 mg/kg body weight, etomoxir was injected once daily for eight days, resulting in a 44% reduction in specific CPT-I activity. The catalyst CPT-I activity was 44% lower in the catalyst treated with etomoxir. Lewis's blood glucose levels remained unchanged after 8 days of treatment with 20 mg/kg Etomoxir, in line with previous Etomoxir feeding trials. Similarly, etomoxir feeding had no effect on harvest mass in the hindlimb or on general growth traits like weight gain. However, in those treated with etomoxir, both liver and heart mass grew significantly by 11% [4].

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: 3.5 mg/mL (10.71 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with sonication.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 35.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

*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.
