SMER28 is a small molecule activator (enhancer/modulator) of autophagy that acts via an mTOR-independent mechanism. It induces autophagy independent of rapamycin in mammalian cells and prevents the accumulation of amyloid beta peptide. The hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease are the aggregates of amyloid-β (Αβ) peptide and tau protein. Autophagy is one major cellular pathway leading to the removal of aggregated proteins. Induction of autophagy by small-molecule enhancers such as SMER28 greatly decreased the levels of Aβ peptide (apparent EC50 of ∼10 μM) and APP-CTF (apparent EC50 of ∼20 μM) in a γ-secretase-independent manner. Pharmacological inhibition of autophagy led to a significant accumulation of Aβ peptide and APP-CTF and diminished the effect of SMER28. Therefore, SMER28 may have therapeutic potential to be used for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease and other proteinopathies.
ln Vitro |
Cell viability in SMER28 (5-200 μM; 24 hours) decreases with dose[4].
|
---|---|
ln Vivo |
Mice survival is increased at 65 mg/kg of SMER28 (15-65 mg/kg; ih; daily, two days prior to irradiation and over the three days of irradiation) and is strongly protected against post-irradiation weight loss[5].

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (9.47 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 25.0 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: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (9.47 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in 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 25.0 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. View More

*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.
