Description

Lucerastat, the galactose form of Miglustat, is an orally-available inhibitor of glucosylceramide synthase (GCS). Lucerastat has the potential for Fabry disease study[1][2].

In Vitro

Fabry patient-derived fibroblasts with the genotypes R301G (residual -GalA activity; 20%) R220X (<3%) and W162X (<1%).

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

Cell Viability Assay[2].

Cell Line: Fabry patient-derived fibroblasts with the genotypes R301G (residual-GalA activity; 20%) R220X (<3%) and W162X (<1%).
Concentration:
Incubation Time: 9 days.
Result: Dose-dependently inhibited GCS, reducing glucosylceramide and increasing sphingomyelin.
In Vivo

Lucerastat (1200 mg/kg/day food admix), a GCS inhibitor, reduces Gb3 in the absence of residual-GalA activity[2].

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

Animal Model: Fabry mice (Gla-/0 and Gla-/-, n = 5 or 6 for each gender)[2].
Dosage: 1200 mg/kg/day food admix.
Administration: Food admix for 20 weeks.
Result: Reduced lipid storage in two major organs affected by FD: mean Gb3 in the kidneys (-33%, p<0.01). and α-galactose- terminated glycosphingolipids in the dorsal root ganglia (-48%, p<0.05). In the liver of the Fabry mice, mean glucosylceramide (GlcCer (24:0)) was reduced (-59%, p<0.001) in addition to Gb3 (24:1) (-37%, p<0.05) demonstrating substrate reduction through GCS inhibition.

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.
