Fatostatin

Synonyms: 125B11

Fatostatin (125B11), a diarylthiazole derivative, is a specific inhibitor of Sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs) activation. Fatostatin binds to SCAP (SREBP cleavage-activating protein), and inhibits the ER-Golgi translocation of SREBPs. Fatostatin suppresses growth and enhances apoptosis in cancer cells.

Biological Activity

Description

Fatostatin (125B11), a diarylthiazole derivative, is a specific inhibitor of Sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs) activation. Fatostatin binds to SCAP (SREBP cleavage-activating protein), and inhibits the ER-Golgi translocation of SREBPs. Fatostatin suppresses growth and enhances apoptosis in cancer cells.
Targets
SREBP [1]
In vitro
In vitro

Fatostatin impairs the activation process of sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs), thereby decreasing the transcription of lipogenic genes in cells. Fatostatin inhibits the ER-Golgi translocation of SREBPs through binding to their escort protein, the SREBP cleavage-activating protein (SCAP), at a distinct site from the sterol-binding domain.[1]
Cell Research Cell lines CHO-K1 cells
Concentrations 20 μM
Incubation Time 20 h
Method

CHO-K1 cells are plated out onto a 96-well plate in medium A. The cells are transiently cotransfected with pCMV-PLAP-BP2, pCMV-SCAP, and pAc-b-gal, using Lipofectamine reagent. After incubation for 5 hr, the cells are washed with PBS and then incubated in medium B, in the absence or presence of fatostatin (20 μM) or sterols (10 μg/mL cholesterol and 1 μg/mL 25-hydroxycholesterol). After 20 hr of incubation, an aliquot of the medium is assayed for secreted alkaline phosphatase activity. The cells in each well are lysed and used for measurement of b-galactosidase activities. The alkaline phosphatase activity is normalized by the activity of b-galactosidase.
In Vivo
In vivo

Fatostatin blocks increases in body weight, blood glucose, and hepatic fat accumulation in obese ob/ob mice, even under uncontrolled food intake. Fatostatin may serve as a tool for gaining further insights into the regulation of SREBP.[1]

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.
