Background

EC50: 7 and 4 μM for LXRα and LXRβ, respectively

24(R)-hydroxy Cholesterol is a LXRα and LXRβ nuclear receptors activator.

The liver X receptors (LXRs) are identified as orphan members of the nuclear receptor superfamily. Like other receptors in the family, LXRs heterodimerize with RXR and bind to specific response elements. LXRα and β are nuclear receptors regulating the metabolism of several important lipids, such as cholesterol and bile acids.

In vitro: In previous study, the authors proposed that LXRs could regulate the lipid metabolism via their interaction with specific oxysterols, such as 24(R)-hydroxycholesterol, 22(R)-hydroxycholesterol, 24(S)-hydroxycholesterol, and 24(S),25-epoxycholesterol. Results showed that by using a ligand binding assay, it was demonstrated that these oxysterols could directly bind to LXRs. In addition, this study further revealed that the position-specific monooxidation of the sterol side chain was required for LXR binding and activation. Enhanced binding and activation could be achieved via the use of 24-oxo ligands. Moreover, the introduction of an oxygen on the sterol B-ring led to a LXRa-subtype selectivity [1].

In vivo: Up to now, there is no animal in vivo data reported.

Clinical trial: So far, no clinical study has been conducted.

Working concentration: mg/ml;

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
3. All of the above co-solvents are available for purchase on the GlpBio website.
