Product Description

Genz-123346 is a novel, potent and selective glucosylceramide synthase inhibitor with potential anticancer activity. The cytotoxic anti-cancer agents' ability to kill tumor cells can be increased when cells are exposed to non-toxic concentrations of Genz-123346 and other GCS inhibitors. P-gp (ABCB1, gP-170) and other multi-drug resistance efflux pumps are substrates of Genz-123346 and a few other GCS inhibitors. The primary cause of the chemosensitization caused by Genz-123346 in cell lines that were chosen to overexpress P-gp or that express P-gp endogenously was its impact on P-gp function.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
GM1 ( IC50 = 14 nM )
ln Vitro
Cells exposed to nontoxic concentrations of Genz-123346 and other GCS inhibitors can increase the ability of cytotoxic anti-cancer agents to kill tumor cells. Genz-123346 and a few other GCS inhibitors serve as substrates for efflux pumps that are resistant to multiple drugs, like P-gp (ABCB1, gP-170). The primary cause of Genz-123346's chemosensitization in cell lines chosen to overexpress P-gp or that express P-gp endogenously is its effects on P-gp function[2]. Genz-123346(Genz) is an autophagy flux enhancer[3].
ln Vivo
Genz-123346 decreased glucose and A1C levels and enhanced glucose tolerance in the Zucker diabetic fatty rat. Additionally, drug therapy maintained the animals' capacity to secrete insulin and stopped the loss of pancreatic beta-cell function. Treatment with Genz-123346 normalized A1C levels and enhanced glucose tolerance in the diet-induced obese mouse. The medication has been demonstrated to have an oral bioavailability of 10% in mice and 30% in rats, with a half-life in plasma of 30 to 60 minutes[1]. Genz-123346 treatment reduces renal GlcCer and GM3 levels in a dose-dependent manner, effectively inhibiting cystic disease. A direct effect of Genz-123346 on the Akt-mTOR signaling pathway is observed, with reduced phosphorylation of Akt and ribosomal protein S6[4].
Animal Protocol
Rats: In water, Genz-123346 dissolves. After receiving Genz-123346 (75 mg/kg) for six weeks, Zucker diabetic fatty rats are fasted for the entire night. The fasted rats are put under anesthesia and given five human insulin shots into their hepatic portal veins the next morning. Two minutes after injection, the liver and quadriceps muscle are removed and instantly frozen in liquid nitrogen. The immunoprecipitated insulin receptor By using immunoblotting, the immunoprecipitates are examined[1].
Mice: For eight weeks, C57BL/6 mice are given a high-fat (45% of kcal) diet. Obese mice with similar body weight gain, insulin, and glucose levels are placed in the treated or control groups. After that, the mice are given water or Genz-123346 every day for ten weeks[1].

  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • 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)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
