In Vitro

XL041 (BMS-852927) is an LXRβ-selective agonist with 20% LXRα and 88% LXRβ activity compared to a full pan agonist in transactivation assays. XL041 is potent, with an EC50=9 nM and 26% activity in an in vitro human whole-blood endogenous target gene activation assay (WBA). BMS-852927 has similar binding affinity to LXRα and LXRβ (19 and 12 nM, respectively)[1].

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

In Vivo

XL041 (BMS-852927), has a very favorable profile at efficacious doses in cynomolgus monkeys and mice. XL041 pre-treatment of C57BL/6J mice for 7 days results in potent, dose-dependent stimulation of cholesterol efflux in this system, reaching a maximum in the 3 mg/kg/day dose group of 70% above vehicle in the initial efflux rate. Similar results are obtained in LDLR knockout (KO) mice. In a separate study, XL041 inhibits the progression of atherosclerosis in a 12 week study in LDLR KO mice. Importantly, the dose response for inhibition of atherosclerosis (0.1-3 mg/kg/day) is similar to the dose response for macrophage reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) stimulation (0.03-3 mg/kg/day), a major underlying mechanism through which LXR agonists affect the disease[1].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.10 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.10 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

Kinase Assay
[1]

Peritoneal macrophages are prepared from male C57BL/6 mice that are stimulated with 4% thioglycolate for 4 days. Macrophages are cultured in DMEM supplemented with 20% FBS and 100 U/mL antibiotic-antimycotic. Macrophages are incubated with LXR agonists (eg, XL041) in serum-free DMEM for 20hrs, followed by 5hr treatment of LPS (20 ng/mL). The effect of agonists on IL-23α and Mertk mRNAs is determined[1].

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

Animal Administration
[1]

Mice[1]
To study effects of LXR agonists on neutrophils, C57BL/6 mice pre-acclimated to oral dosing (n=8/group) are randomly assigned to vehicle; 0.03, 0.1, 1, or 3 mg/kg/day XL041; and 0.3 or 3 mg/kg/day GW3965 and dosed orally for 3 days. Following anesthesia with isoflurane, blood is collected by retro-orbital bleeding and analyzed for neutrophil levels using an Advia hematology instrument employing peroxidase staining.
Monkeys[1]
All studies are performed in male animals. In a PD study, animals are randomized into six treatment groups (n=3/group) and dosed once daily with vehicle, 10 mg/kg/day T0901317, and 0.1, 0.3, 1, or 3 mg/kg/day XL041 for 14 days. Blood RNA and plasma lipids are determined at baseline and days 1, 4, 7, and 14 of dosing for the pharmacodynamic (PD)study, and on days 1 and 7 for the liver triglyceride (TG) magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) study.

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.
