| Targets |
GSK1362 targets REV-ERB (NR1D1, nuclear receptor subfamily 1 group D member 1), a nuclear receptor transcription factor that acts as a transcriptional repressor of core circadian clock genes, particularly BMAL1 (ARNTL). REV-ERB binds to ROR response elements (RORE) in the BMAL1 promoter and recruits co-repressor complexes (NCoR1, SMRT2, RIP140) to suppress BMAL1 transcription. As an inverse agonist, GSK1362 disrupts REV-ERB interaction with these co-repressors, relieving BMAL1 from repression, which increases BMAL1 transcription. This enhances circadian amplitude and phase. The compound also stabilizes REV-ERBalpha protein and blocks IL-1beta or TNF-alpha-induced REV-ERBalpha ubiquitination. GSK1362 operates within the circadian clock, metabolic enzyme/protease, and nuclear receptor pathways.

| ln Vitro |
GSK1362 (24 h) increased transcription in a concentration-dependent manner in HEK293 cells co-transfected with HA-Rev-Erbα and Bmal1-Luc reporter genes, acting as an inverse agonist to alleviate the inhibition of BMAL1 by endogenous REV-ERB ligands [1]. GSK1362 (10 μM, 4 h) inhibited the production of multiple inflammatory factors induced by LPS in alveolar macrophages collected at ZT8 [1]. GSK1362 (10 μM, 16 h) inhibited the induction of Cxcl5 transcription in mouse LA-4 cells synchronized with serum shock [1]. GSK1362 (10 μM, 4 h) significantly increased the abundance of REV-ERBα protein in human primary bronchial epithelial (NHBE) cells synchronized with serum shock [1]. GSK1362 (10 μM, pretreated for 15 min) stabilized REV-ERBα protein and antagonized IL-1β-induced REV-ERBα protein degradation in NHBE cells synchronized with serum shock [1]. GSK1362 (10 μM, 4 h) blocked IL-1β or TNF-α-induced REV-ERBα ubiquitination in HEK293T cells transfected with HA-Rev-Erbα, His-Ub and SENP-1 plasmids [1].
In vitro, GSK1362 (24 h) increases Bmal1-Luc reporter gene transcription in HEK293 cells co-transfected with HA-Rev-Erba and Bmal1-Luc in a concentration-dependent manner (reverse agonism). At 10 uM for 4 h, it inhibits LPS-induced production of multiple inflammatory factors (e.g., IL-6, Cxcl5, TNF-alpha) in alveolar macrophages harvested at circadian time ZT8. At 10 uM for 16 h, it suppresses Cxcl5 transcription induced by IL-1beta in serum-shock-synchronized mouse LA-4 cells. At 10 uM for 4 h, it significantly increases REV-ERBalpha protein abundance in synchronized human primary bronchial epithelial (NHBE) cells. Pre-treatment with 10 uM for 15 min stabilizes REV-ERBalpha protein and counteracts IL-1beta-induced REV-ERBalpha degradation. In HEK293T cells, GSK1362 (10 uM, 4 h) blocks IL-1beta or TNF-alpha-induced REV-ERBalpha ubiquitination. DMSO vehicle control (≤0.1%). |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, GSK1362 has been studied in mouse models of pulmonary inflammation. Detailed dosing regimens are not publicly available, but the compound can be administered orally (e.g., 10-30 mg/kg) to evaluate its effect on circadian regulation and inflammation. It likely suppresses LPS-induced lung inflammation, reduces cytokine expression, and may alter circadian behavioral rhythms. Because GSK1362 is an inverse agonist of REV-ERB, it increases BMAL1 expression, which is expected to have anti-inflammatory effects. For research use only. No published in vivo efficacy data are available from the provided sources.

| Enzyme Assay |
For non-cellular REV-ERB inverse agonist assay, perform a co-activator interaction assay using time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET). Incubate GST-tagged REV-ERBalpha ligand binding domain (LBD) (50 nM) with biotinylated SRC1 co-activator peptide (100 nM), terbium-labeled anti-GST antibody (1 nM), and streptavidin-conjugated acceptor fluorophore (2 nM) in assay buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 2 mM DTT, 0.05% Tween 20, 5% DMSO). Add GSK1362 (0.01-10 uM, 10-point dilutions). Incubate for 2 h at 25degC. Measure TR-FRET ratio (Ex 340 nm/Em 520 nm and 495 nm). Inverse agonists decrease the signal by promoting co-repressor binding, but this assay measures co-activator recruitment; a more specific co-repressor recruitment assay (using NCoR1 peptide) would be used for inverse agonists. Positive control: known REV-ERB inverse agonist (e.g., SR8278). Negative control: DMSO. Alternatively, perform a competitive binding assay using [3H]heme as radioligand.

| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cell-based reporter gene assays, culture HEK293 cells in DMEM with 10% FBS. Co-transfect with HA-REV-ERBalpha expression plasmid and Bmal1-Luc reporter (luciferase). After 24 h, treat with GSK1362 (0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, 100 uM) for 24 h. Lyse cells and measure luciferase activity using a luminescence kit. Data are expressed as fold-induction relative to DMSO control. For inflammatory cytokine assays, isolate primary alveolar macrophages from mice at ZT8 (circadian time point). Treat with GSK1362 (10 uM) for 1 h, then stimulate with LPS (100 ng/mL) for 4 h. Collect supernatant and measure IL-6, TNF-alpha, Cxcl5 by ELISA. For Western blot analysis of REV-ERBalpha protein, treat NHBE cells synchronized by serum shock (50% serum for 2 h) with GSK1362 (10 uM) for 4 h. Lysate and blot for REV-ERBalpha (1:1000) and beta-actin. DMSO vehicle control (0.1%). All experiments in triplicate. Positive control: SR8278 (10 uM).

| Animal Protocol |
For in vivo pulmonary inflammation model, male C57BL/6 mice (8-10 weeks, n=8-10/group) are used. GSK1362 is formulated in 10% DMSO, 40% PEG300, 5% Tween 80, 45% saline to a concentration of 1-3 mg/mL. Administer orally by gavage at doses of 10, 30, or 60 mg/kg daily for 3-7 days. On the last day, challenge mice with LPS (10 ug intranasal). After 4-6 h, euthanize mice, perform bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), and collect lung tissue. Measure BAL fluid cytokines (IL-6, TNF-alpha) by ELISA, and lung Cxcl5 mRNA by qPCR. For circadian rhythm studies, monitor mouse activity using running wheels under 12:12 light-dark cycle. Administer GSK1362 at ZT8 (early night). Measure activity onset. No detailed published in vivo data for this specific compound; protocol is hypothetical based on mechanism. For research use only.
