Product Description

BAR502 is a dual FXR and GPBAR1 agonist. BAR-502 promotes browning of white adipose tissue and reverses liver steatosis and fibrosis. BAR502 protects against liver damage caused by HFD by promoting the browning of adipose tissue.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
BAR502 is an alcohol with a truncated side chain that has two substituents in an α configuration on the B ring. While BAR502 can transactivate the nuclear receptor PXR, it is unable to transactivate GR, PPARγ, or LXR at concentrations of 10 μM. BAR502 raises the quantity of cAMP in THP-1 cells and promotes proglucagon mRNA production in GLUTag cells, an enteroendocrine cell line. In HepG2 cells, BAR502 stimulates the expression of OSTα, BSEP, and SHP. BAR502 has a strong affinity for FXR and is particularly effective in attracting SRC-1 coactivators [1].
ln Vivo
In addition to decreasing steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis scores and hepatic expression of SREPB1c, FAS, PPARγ, CD36, and CYP7A1 mRNA, BAR502 treatment resulted in a 10% reduction in body weight, increased insulin sensitivity, and HDL circulating levels. BAR502 also increases the expression of SHP and ABCG5 in the liver and SHP, FGF15, and GLP1 in the intestine. BAR502 inhibits CCl4-induced liver fibrosis and increases epWAT browning [2]. BAR502 decreased liver damage in a non-obstructive cholestasis model without producing pruritus. Combination therapy with BAR502 increases lifespan, lowers serum alkaline phosphatase levels, and, without producing pruritus, significantly alters liver expression of traditional FXR target genes, such as OSTα, BSEP, SHP, and MDR1 [3].

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMF : 50 mg/mL (~127.35 mM)
Ethanol :≥ 50 mg/mL (~127.35 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.37 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% EtOH + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear EtOH stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.37 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% EtOH + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear EtOH stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
