Solubility (25°C)* In vitro
* <1 mg/ml means slightly soluble or insoluble.
* Please note that Selleck tests the solubility of all compounds in-house, and the actual solubility may differ slightly from published values. This is normal and is due to slight batch-to-batch variations.
* Room temperature shipping (Stability testing shows this product can be shipped without any cooling measures.)

Biological Activity

Description GW501516 is a potent and highly selective PPARβ/δ agonist, with EC50 of 1 nM, with 1000-fold selectivity over hPPARα and hPPARγ. Phase 4.
Targets
PPARδ [1]
1.1 nM(EC50)
In vitro GW501516 is demonstrated to be 1000-fold more selective in comparison to existing subtypes. GW501516 increases expression of the reverse cholesterol transporter ATP-binding cassette A1 and induces apolipoprotein A1-specific cholesterol efflux In macrophages, fibroblasts, and intestinal cells. [2] GW501516 can regulate expression of genes involved in lipid catabolism and energy uncoupling in skeletal muscle cells. [4] Additionally, GW501516 is shown to block insulin resistance and fatty acid-induced nuclear factor-κB activation. [5] GW 501516 reduces the IFNγ-induced up-regulation of TNFα and inducible NO synthase, and showed anti-inflammatory activity. [6]
In vivo GW501516 dramatically increases serum high density lipoprotein cholesterol while lowering the levels of small-dense low density lipoprotein, fasting triglycerides, and fasting insulin when dosed to insulin-resistant middle-aged obese rhesus monkeys. [2] GW501516 induces fatty acid β-oxidation in L6 myotubes and in mouse skeletal muscles. GW501516 treatment to mice fed a high-fat diet ameliorates diet-induced obesity as well as insulin resistance. GW501516 treatment also dramatically improves diabetes, as demonstrated by the decrease in plasma glucose and blood insulin levels in genetically obese ob/ob mice. [7]
Features A selective PPARδ agonist compared with a synthetic LXRα agonist GW3965.
