In Vitro

Bezafibrate is an agonist of PPAR, with EC50s of 90 μM, 55 μM, 110 μM for murine PPARα, PPARγ and PPARδ, and 50 μM, 60 μM, 20 μM for human PPARα, PPARγ and PPARδ, respectively[1].
Bezafibrate (> 200 μM) shows significant cytotoxicity against human retinal microvascular endothelial cells (HRMECs) and human retinal pigment epithelial ARPE-19 cells. Bezafibrate (30-100 μM) suppresses tumor necrosis factor (TNF)α induced inflammatory factors and regulates TNFα induced nuclear factor (NF)-κB transactivation in HRMEC. Bezafibrate inhibits VEGF-induced HRMECs migration, and inhibits interleukin (IL)-1β-induced VEGF secretion of ARPE-19 cells[2].

In Vivo

Bezafibrate (0.5%) markedly reduces plasma lipid and glucose levels, and increases islet area in the pancreas in TallyHo mice. Bezafibrate also improves energy expenditure and metabolic flexibility. Moreover, Bezafibrate ameliorates steatosis, modifies lipid composition and increases mitochondrial mass in the liver[3].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.91 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.91 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  0.5% CMC-Na/saline water

    Solubility: 10 mg/mL (27.64 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

Cell Assay
[2]

Cell viability is assessed using the CCK-8 kit. Hhuman retinal microvascular endothelial cells (HRMECs) or ARPE-19 cells are seeded at 5000 cells/well in medium containing 10% serum in 96-well plates. After a 24-h incubation, the medium is serum-starved with 1% FBS for 6 h, the CCK-8 reagent is added, and the absorbance of the resultant solution is measured at 450 nm by using a microplate reader at three time points, 24, 48, and 72 h after treatment with Bezafibrate (0, 10, 50, 100, 200, 500, and 1000 μM)[2].

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Administration
[3]

TallyHo mice are bred in our animal facility. Only male mice are used in the study, and mice receive a standard diet (SD), which is supplemented with 0.5% (w/w) Bezafibrate for the Bezafibrate groups for 8 weeks. Animals are killed by isoflurane overdose, and dissected tissues are prepared as stated below. All data represent samples taken after 8 weeks of Bezafibrate (or SD) treatment unless otherwise stated[3].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
