  3. 9-PAHSA

9-PAHSA is an orally active endogenous GPR120 agonist (EC50=18 μM). 9-PAHSA significantly inhibits LPS-induced inflammatory responses by blocking the NF-κB pathway. 9-PAHSA induces adipocyte browning, enhances glucose uptake and reduces lipid accumulation, while improving mitochondrial function and the survival rate of steatotic hepatocytes. In terms of neuroprotection, 9-PAHSA regulates the expression of REST and BDNF in the prefrontal cortex of diabetic mice, and effectively prevents spatial working memory deficits and abnormal social behaviors. 9-PAHSA does not directly regulate insulin secretion or improve systemic insulin sensitivity, and possesses specific anti-inflammatory, metabolic regulatory and neuroprotective properties. 9-PAHSA can be used in the research of diabetes-related cognitive impairment, obesity and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

Description

9-PAHSA is an orally active endogenous GPR120 agonist (EC50=18 μM). 9-PAHSA significantly inhibits LPS-induced inflammatory responses by blocking the NF-κB pathway. 9-PAHSA induces adipocyte browning, enhances glucose uptake and reduces lipid accumulation, while improving mitochondrial function and the survival rate of steatotic hepatocytes. In terms of neuroprotection, 9-PAHSA regulates the expression of REST and BDNF in the prefrontal cortex of diabetic mice, and effectively prevents spatial working memory deficits and abnormal social behaviors. 9-PAHSA does not directly regulate insulin secretion or improve systemic insulin sensitivity, and possesses specific anti-inflammatory, metabolic regulatory and neuroprotective properties. 9-PAHSA can be used in the research of diabetes-related cognitive impairment, obesity and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease[1][2][3][4].

In Vitro

(R)-9-PAHSA and (S)-9-PAHSA (20 μM; 30 min pre-incubation) do not significantly increase basal or insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in human in vitro differentiated adipocytes[1].
Racemic 9-PAHSA (1-20 μM; 2 h) does not stimulate glucose-dependent insulin secretion in dispersed mouse pancreatic islets[1].
9-PAHSA (5-30 μM; 72 h) exhibits no significant cytotoxicity toward 3T3-L1 pre-adipocytes following 72 h of treatment[3].
9-PAHSA (5-10 μM; 6 h) increases the viability of HepG2 cells with steatosis, with up to 140% relative viability observed in 500 μM oleic acid-treated cells, while higher 9-PAHSA concentrations reduce viability[4].
9-PAHSA (10-40 μM; 6 h) reduces intracellular lipid accumulation in oleic acid-induced steatotic HepG2 cells[4].

Cell Viability Assay[4]

Cell Line: HepG2
Concentration: 5 μM, 10 μM, 20 μM, 40 μM; tested in cells pre-treated with 250 μM, 500 μM, or 1000 μM oleic acid
Incubation Time: 6 h
Result: Increased relative cell viability to up to 120% in HepG2 cells treated with 250 μM oleic acid at 5 μM, while reduced viability at 10 μM, 20 μM, and 40 μM.
Increased relative cell viability to up to 140% in HepG2 cells treated with 500 μM oleic acid at 5 μM and 10 μM, while reduced viability at 20 μM and 40 μM.
Increased relative cell viability slightly in HepG2 cells treated with 1000 μM oleic acid at 5 μM and 10 μM, while reduced viability at 20 μM and 40 μM.
In Vivo

9-PAHSA (22.5 mg/kg; oral gavage; single acute dose) does not improve glucose tolerance or stimulate insulin or GLP-1 secretion in male C57BL/6J mice fed VS-LFD or VS-HFD for 18 weeks[1].
9-PAHSA (45 mg/kg; oral gavage; single acute dose) does not improve glucose tolerance or stimulate insulin or GLP-1 secretion in male C57BL/6J mice fed BT-HFD for 18 weeks[1].
9-PAHSA (15 mg/kg; oral gavage; single acute dose) does not improve glucose tolerance or stimulate glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in male C57BL/6J mice fed LARD-HFD for 20 weeks[1].
9-PAHSA (50 mg/kg; i.g.; daily; 28 days) improves type 2 diabetes-associated cognitive impairment in db/db mice by reducing cortical REST expression and upregulating cortical BDNF expression, while also restoring spatial working memory and social novelty preference[2].
9-PAHSA (50 mg/kg; p.o.; once daily; 28 days) promotes browning of subcutaneous inguinal white adipose tissue in both wild-type and ob/ob mice via upregulation of brown fat-specific genes and proteins, with more pronounced effects in ob/ob mice[3].

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

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.

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.
