BI-9774
BI-9774 is a potent, selective, and orally active AMPK activator, with EC50 values of 20.0 nM and 63.1 nM against human AMPK α1β1γ1 and AMPK α1β2γ1, respectively. BI-9774 binds to the allosteric drug and metabolite (ADaM) site and induces ACC Ser79 phosphorylation in HepG2 cells, with an EC50 of 83.2 nM. BI-9774 can be used in studies related to AMPK signaling, multiple sclerosis, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

BI-9774 (following a 1-hour incubation) potently induces the phosphorylation of ACC in human HepG2 hepatocellular carcinoma cells, with an EC50 of 83.2 nM[4].
BI-9774 (10 μM; 72 h) reduces PCAF protein abundance in pathogenic TH17 (pTH17) cells[3].
BI-9774 (1.25 or 10 μM; 2 h) increases the phosphorylation of ACC Ser79, ULK1 Ser555 and AMPKα Thr172 in undifferentiated primary mouse adipose-derived stem cells (mADSCs); no significant difference in the phosphorylation level of target proteins is observed between 1.25 μM and 10 μM[2].
BI-9774 (1.25 or 10 μM; 3 days) increases ACC Ser79 phosphorylation in mature primary mouse adipocytes. At 10 μM, BI-9774 significantly reduces Lep mRNA, but does not significantly alter lipid droplet accumulation, nuclear number, adipogenic index, or the mRNA levels of Pparg, Lpl, Plin1 and Adipoq. BI-9774 also does not significantly change UCP1, CKB and SERCA2 under either unstimulated or Isoprenaline (HY-108353)-stimulated conditions[2].
BI-9774 (1.25-10 μM; 8 days) reduces lipid accumulation, nuclear count and adipogenic index in a concentration-dependent manner during adipogenic differentiation of mADSC, and significantly decreases lipid droplet size at 10 μM; 1.25 μM BI-9774 simultaneously downregulates the mRNA levels of *Pparg*, *Lpl*, *Plin1*, *Adipoq* and *Lep*, as well as the protein levels of FAS, ACC and PLIN1[2].
BI-9774 (1.25 μM; administered from day 2 or day 4 to day 8) consistently reduces Lep mRNA during the adipocyte maturation stage; exposure starting on day 4 does not significantly alter adipogenesis, suggesting that decreased Lep expression can be dissociated from changes in adipogenesis[2].
Brief exposure to BI-9774 (1.25 μM; administered for the first 2 days followed by washout until day 8) during the initial stage of mADSC adipogenic differentiation persistently reduces lipid accumulation and adipogenic index, and decreases PPARγ protein and leptin in the culture supernatant. No sustained phosphorylation of AMPKα Thr172, ACC Ser79, or ULK1 Ser555 is detected on day 8, and ACC inhibition within the same time window cannot replicate this adipogenic phenotype[2].
BI-9774 (1.25 μM; during adipogenic differentiation) reduces intracellular TGFβ protein and increases Tgfbr2 mRNA, but does not significantly alter ERK/SMAD2/3 signaling or β-catenin nuclear translocation[2].
