Product Description

GW9508 (GW-9508) is a novel, potent and selective agonist for FFA1 (fatty acid receptor GPR40) with pEC50 of 7.32, and is 100-fold selective against GPR120, it stimulates insulin secretion in a glucose-sensitive manner. GW9508 is a GPR40/120 agonist and is different from the reported GPR40/120 agonist GW1100. When tested with HEK-293 (human embryonic kidney) cells expressing GPR40 or GRP120, GW9508 treatment increased intracellular Ca2+ concentration via activating GPR40/120 in a dose-dependent manner.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
In HEK-293 cells expressing GPR40 (pEC50 of 7.32) or GPR120 (pEC50 of 5.46), GW9508 increases intracellular Ca2+ mobilization, but not in the parent HEK-293 cell line [1]. GW9508 concentration-dependently enhances glucose-stimulated insulin secretion at high glucose levels (25 mM) (pEC50 of 6.14). Insulin secretion was raised 1.52-fold when 20 μM GW9508 was used in conjunction with 25 mM glucose as opposed to 25 mM glucose alone. As the quantity of glucose increases, GW9508 (10 μM) can considerably increase the amount of insulin secreted in MIN6 cells [1]. CCL17 and CCL5 expression in pertussis toxin-sensitive cells is inhibited by GW9508. Through RNA interference, GPR40 can be reduced, so GW9508's inhibitory impact can be removed. In HaCaT cells, GW9508 additionally suppressed the expression of IL-11, IL-24, and IL-33 that were triggered by TNF-α and IFN-γ. GW9508 also prevents normal human epidermal keratinocytes from producing CCL5 and CXCL10[2].
ln Vivo
Topical application of 200 (μM) GW9508 to the skin prevented ear swelling and contact hypersensitivity in repeated hapten application models (BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice) via downregulating CCL5 and CXCL10, respectively [2].

*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.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • 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
