PPARα agonist 5
PPARα agonist 5 is an orally available, selective partial agonist of PPARα (EC50: 3 nM). PPARα agonist 5 reduces lipid accumulation and upregulates key PPARα target genes, exerting anti-fatty liver effects. PPARα agonist 5 also exhibits significant hypolipidemic and hypoglycemic effects through partial PPARγ agonist activity and mild inhibition of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) (IC50: 79.1 μM). PPARα agonist 5 has a good safety profile and can be used in the study of type 2 diabetes with dyslipidemia.

Biological Activity
|
PPARα 3 nM (EC50) |
PPAR-γ 1.66 μM (EC50) |
PPARδ >25 μM (EC50) |
PPARα agonist 5 (Compound (S)-2) selectively agonizes PPARα in HepG2 cells (EC50: 3 nM), is approximately 550-fold more active against PPARα than against PPARγ (EC50: 1.66 μM), and has no significant activity against PPARδ[1].
PPARα agonist 5 (0.025-25 μM, 24 h/15days) significantly reduces lipid accumulation induced by oleic acid in HepaRG cells and upregulated PPARα target genes associated with fatty acid oxidation, indicating that it exerts anti-fatty liver effects by activating lipid metabolism pathways[1].

-
Cell Line:oleic acid (500 μM) treated HepaRG cells
-
Concentration:0.025, 0.25, 2.5, 25 μM
-
Incubation Time:oleic acid for 24 hours, then for another 24 hours or 15 days
-
Result:Significantly upregulated fatty acid oxidation-related genes (CPT1a, HMGCS2, PDK4), and the activation of these genes indicated that it promoted fatty acid oxidation and reduced liver fat accumulation.

-
Animal Model:Swiss Albino mice (male, weight 25-30 g) injected with Tyloxapol (400 mg/kg)[1]
-
Dosage:(1, 3, 7.5 mg/kg)
-
Administration:p.o. 7 consecutive days
-
Result:Significantly reduced total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C) and very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL-C) levels.
Showed significant hypoglycemic effects, which were associated with its partial PPARγ agonist activity and mild inhibition of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B).
Was non-toxic to arteries, kidneys, liver and pancreas at a dose of 3 mg/kg, and was able to reverse organ damage caused by hyperlipidemia.
