    Description

    LXR-623 is a brain-penetrant partial LXRα and full LXRβ agonist, with IC50s of 24 nM and 179 nM, respectively.

    IC50 & Target

    IC50: 24 nM (LXR-α), 179 nM (LXR-β)[2][3]

    In Vitro

    LXR-623 potently kills U87EGFRvIII and GBM39 cells in vitro while completely sparing NHAs. LXR-623 also increases ABCA1 protein and decreases LDLR protein levels in all three cell lines. LXR-623 suppresses LDLR expression, increases expression of the ABCA1 efflux transporter, and induces substantial cell death in all of the GBM samples tested. LXR-623 (5 μM) also induces GBM cell death through activation of LXRβ[1]. LXR-623 treatment of human PBMC in vitro significantly increases transcription of ABCA1 and ABCG1[4].

    In Vivo

    LXR-623 (400 mg/kg, p.o.) crosses the blood-brain barrier, induces target gene expression, and achieves therapeutic levels in GBM cells in the brain with minimal activity in the periphery. LXR-623 inhibits tumor growth, promotes tumor cell death, and prolongs the survival of mice bearing intracranial patient-derived GBMs[1]. LXR-623 (1.5, 5 mg/kg/day) significantly reduces progression of atherosclerosis in animals compared with the placebo group[2]. WAY-252623 (15 and 50 mg/kg) results in a significant reduction of atherosclerosis in a dose-dependent manner. WAY-252623 (20, 60, and 120 mg/kg/day, p.o.) displays neutral lipid effects in this CETP-expressing Syrian hamster[3]. Moreover, LXR-623 (50 mg/kg) induces gene expression in rodent peripheral blood cells in rat. LXR-623 (0, 15 and 50 mg/kg) dose-dependently upregulates transcription of ABCA1 and ABCG1 in monkey whole blood cells proportional to dose[4].

    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 (5.91 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% Corn Oil

      Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.91 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

    Animal Administration
    [1]

    Five-week-old female athymic nu/nu mice are used in the experiment. A total of 1×105 U87EGFRvIII IRFP720 or GBM39 IRFP720 cells in 5 μL of PBS is intracranially injected into the mouse brain. Tumors are allowed to establish over the course of 7-10 days and engraftment of tumors is quantitatively confirmed via FMT signal intensity. Tumor growth is monitored using an FMT 2500 fluorescence tomography system. For drug treatment studies, vehicle (0.5% methylcellulose, 2% Tween 80 in water) or LXR-623 (400 mg/kg) resuspended in vehicle are administered to mice via oral gavage daily starting at day 7 postinjection.

    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.
