| Targets |
Nidufexor targets the farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a nuclear receptor that regulates bile acid, lipid, and glucose metabolism. It acts as a partial agonist, activating FXR to modulate gene expression. FXR activation leads to reduced bile acid synthesis, improved insulin sensitivity, and decreased hepatic steatosis. This mechanism underlies its therapeutic potential in NASH. The compound is a non-bile acid FXR agonist.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, Nidufexor shows partial FXR agonistic activity in biochemical assays. In FXR-HTRF assays measuring FXR-SRC1 interaction, it has an EC₅₀ of 7 nM. The compound activates FXR-dependent gene modulation in cell-based reporter assays. It is a potent and selective FXR agonist. Detailed in vitro data are available in the primary literature. Nidufexor demonstrates favorable in vitro properties for drug development.
|
| ln Vivo |
Nidufexor (LMB763), in a mouse model of non-alcoholic steatosis (NASH), is a strong and circumferential in vivo FXR gene modulator that decreases fibrosis, inflammation, and steatosis [1]. Partitioning time (t1/2) following moderate Cmax values (4.5, 12.4, 28.1, 80.9, and 140.8 μM) and powder formulations (3, 10, 30, 100, and 300 mg/kg) in structures (aged roughly 10 weeks); 3.9 5.7 6.3 5.6 6.3 h) [1] Nidufexor exhibits distinct half-lives (attention 4.5, adsorption 4.4 and dog 6.8 hours) in animal models following topical studies (attention 3.0, adsorption 5.0 and dog 0.5 mg/kg): Han-Wistar rats[1].
In vivo, Nidufexor shows FXR-dependent gene modulation. It has been evaluated in animal models of NASH and diabetic nephropathy. The compound is orally bioavailable and has advanced to Phase 2 human clinical trials. Efficacy data from preclinical studies support its development for NASH. The compound's in vivo effects on lipid metabolism, liver histology, and fibrosis have been characterized. |
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro FXR activation assays for Nidufexor typically use fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) or time-resolved FRET (TR-FRET) technology. Recombinant FXR ligand-binding domain (LBD) and fluorescently labeled SRC1 peptide are incubated with varying concentrations of Nidufexor in assay buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 50 mM KCl, 2 mM DTT, 0.01% Tween-20). The signal is measured after incubation at room temperature for 1-2 hours. EC₅₀ values are calculated from dose-response curves. Controls include DMSO vehicle and a reference FXR agonist (e.g., GW4064).
|
| Cell Assay |
For cell-based assays, cells expressing FXR (e.g., HepG2 or HEK-293 transfected with FXR) are cultured in DMEM with 10% charcoal-stripped FBS. Cells are seeded in 96-well plates and treated with Nidufexor at various concentrations for 24 hours. FXR target gene expression (e.g., SHP, BSEP) is measured by RT-PCR or reporter assays. Cell viability is assessed by MTT or CellTiter-Glo. All treatments include vehicle controls and are performed in triplicate.

| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Han-Wistar rats[1]
Doses: 0.1, 0.3, 1.5, 7.5, 25, 100 mg/kg (pharmacokinetic/PK/PK Analysis) Route of Administration: po (oral gavage), one time/day for 14 days Experimental Results:On day 1 and 13, serum exposure increased approximately dose-proportionally from 0.1 to 100 mg/kg. Exposure at 0.1 and 0.3 mg/kg was likely underestimated on day 13. No significant accumulation was observed[1]. In vivo, Nidufexor is typically administered orally to rodents or used in clinical trials. For preclinical studies, mice or rats are dosed at various regimens. Endpoints include liver histology (steatosis, inflammation, fibrosis), serum ALT/AST levels, bile acid profiles, and lipid panels. Pharmacodynamic markers (FXR target gene expression) are measured in liver tissue. Pharmacokinetic parameters are determined from plasma samples. Clinical trials follow standard protocols for Phase 2 studies. |

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 (4.26 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 20.8 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.
