Description

Bempedoic acid (ETC-1002) is an ATP-citrate lyase (ACL) inhibitor[1]. Bempedoic acid (ETC-1002) activates AMPK[2].

IC50 & Target

AMPK

 

In Vitro

Bempedoic acid (ETC-1002) activates AMP-activated protein kinase in a Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent kinase β-independent and liver kinase β 1-dependent manner, without detectable changes in adenylate energy charge. Bempedoic acid is shown to rapidly form a CoA thioester in liver, which directly inhibits ATP-citrate lyase[1]. In cells treated with Bempedoic acid (ETC-1002), increased levels of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) phosphorylation coincide with reduced activity of MAP kinases and decreased production of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines[2].

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

In Vivo

A marked and sustained increase in AMPK and ACC phosphorylation is found in rat livers following two weeks of treatment with Bempedoic acid (ETC-1002). Bempedoic acid is >100-fold more prevalent than the CoA thioester in rat liver and is associated with AMPK activation[1]. Bempedoic acid (ETC-1002) suppresses thioglycollate-induced homing of leukocytes into mouse peritoneal cavity. In a mouse model of diet-induced obesity, Bempedoic acid restores adipose AMPK activity, reduces JNK phosphorylation, and diminishes expression of macrophage-specific marker 4F/80[2].

Cell Assay
[1]

Glucose production is measured in primary rat hepatocyte cultures. Cells are cultured in glucose- and phenol red-free DMEM, containing 10 mM lactate, 1 mM pyruvate, and nonessential amino acids. Cells are incubated with various concentrations of Bempedoic acid (0.1 to 100 μM)[1].

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

Animal Administration
[1]

Rats: Prior to single-dose Bempedoic acid administration, Male Wistar Han rats are fasted for 48 h and refed a high-carbohydrate diet for an additional 48 h. For two-week assessment, rats are maintained on standard chow diet and dosed by oral gavage with Bempedoic acid at 30 mg/kg/day for two weeks in the morning. Following nutritional staging and/or dosing, food is withdrawn 2 h prior to last the oral dose of ehicle control or Bempedoic acid[1].

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.
