| Targets |
GR148672X targets triacylglycerol hydrolase (TGH), also known as carboxylesterase 1 (CES1), with an IC₅₀ of 4 nM. It is selective for TGH/CES1 over lipoprotein lipase (LPL) at 5 μM. By inhibiting TGH, the compound blocks the hydrolysis of triacylglycerols, thereby modulating lipid metabolism and fatty acid release from lipid stores.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, GR148672X demonstrates potent inhibition of TGH/CES1 activity with an IC₅₀ of 4 nM. The compound shows selectivity for TGH/CES1 over other lipases such as lipoprotein lipase. It is used in biochemical assays to study the role of TGH in lipid metabolism, triglyceride hydrolysis, and energy homeostasis.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, GR148672X has been studied in animal models to evaluate its effects on lipid metabolism and triglyceride hydrolysis. As a TGH inhibitor, it has potential applications in research on obesity, dyslipidemia, and metabolic disorders. The compound's effects on lipid homeostasis and energy metabolism are areas of ongoing investigation. Detailed results are available in specialized pharmacological literature.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
TGH enzyme inhibition assays: Recombinant human TGH/CES1 enzyme is incubated with a fluorogenic or radiometric substrate (e.g., triolein or 4-methylumbelliferyl oleate) in the presence of GR148672X at various concentrations (typically 0.1-100 nM). Enzyme activity is measured by detecting the release of fluorescent or radioactive product. IC₅₀ values are calculated from dose-response curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
For cell-based assays, hepatocyte cell lines or adipocytes are cultured in appropriate media at 37°C with 5% CO₂. Cells are treated with GR148672X at various concentrations (typically 1-1000 nM) for specified time periods. TGH activity is measured by assessing triglyceride hydrolysis or fatty acid release. Lipid accumulation is assessed by Oil Red O staining or lipid extraction and quantification.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo efficacy studies are conducted in rodent models of obesity or dyslipidemia. GR148672X is formulated in suitable vehicles (e.g., saline, DMSO/PEG mixtures) and administered via oral gavage, intraperitoneal, or intravenous injection at specified doses. Pharmacokinetic parameters are assessed by collecting blood samples and analyzing compound concentrations via HPLC or LC-MS/MS. Lipid profiles and triglyceride levels are measured in plasma and tissues.

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (6.11 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (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 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: 2.08 mg/mL (6.11 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 ultrasonication. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 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.  (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.
