  3. GR148672X

GR148672X is an inhibitor of carboxylesterase 1 (CES1) and hepatic microsomal triglyceride hydrolase (TGH). GR148672X blocks the catalytic activity of CES1, impairs the functions of triglyceride and cholesteryl ester lipase, reduces triglyceride mobilization and secretion, and decreases apolipoprotein B-100 secretion in primary rat hepatocytes. Under low-glucose conditions, GR148672X inhibits the survival of colorectal cancer cells by reducing free fatty acid availability, inducing toxic triglyceride accumulation, ROS production, mitochondrial damage, ferroptosis and apoptosis. GR148672X can be used in studies related to colorectal cancer and atherosclerosis.

Description

GR148672X is an inhibitor of carboxylesterase 1 (CES1) and hepatic microsomal triglyceride hydrolase (TGH). GR148672X blocks the catalytic activity of CES1, impairs the functions of triglyceride and cholesteryl ester lipase, reduces triglyceride mobilization and secretion, and decreases apolipoprotein B-100 secretion in primary rat hepatocytes. Under low-glucose conditions, GR148672X inhibits the survival of colorectal cancer cells by reducing free fatty acid availability, inducing toxic triglyceride accumulation, ROS production, mitochondrial damage, ferroptosis and apoptosis. GR148672X can be used in studies related to colorectal cancer and atherosclerosis[1][2].

GR148672X (10 μM; 4 days) potently reduces the viability of human colorectal cancer cell lines HCT-116, RKO, HT-29, CaCo-2, LS1034, and LS174T under glucose-restricted conditions, while showing no significant toxicity under normal glucose conditions[1].
GR148672X (10 µM; 5 h) reduces the secretion of stored triacylglycerol by 46% in primary rat hepatocytes[2].
GR148672X (10 µM; 4 h) reduces apoB-100 secretion by 42% and apoB-48 secretion by 20% in primary rat hepatocytes, without altering apoB synthesis, total protein secretion, or cell viability[2].

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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (6.11 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: 2.08 mg/mL (6.11 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

    This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.08 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

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.
