Product Description

FR194738 HCl (FR-194738 hydrochloride) is a novel and potent squalene epoxidase inhibitor that inhibits squalene epoxidase activity in HepG2 cell homogenates with an IC50 of 9.8 nM.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
The incorporation of [14C]acetate into free cholesterol and cholesteryl ester is concentration-dependently inhibited in intact HepG2 cells by FR194738, with IC50 values of 4.9 and 8.0 nM, respectively. Intracellular buildup of [14C]squalene is induced by FR194738. An intermediary in the production of cholesterol, squalene, incorporates [14C]acetate more readily when FR194738 is present[1]. In HepG2 cell homogenate and liver microsomes from dogs and rats, FR194738 potently inhibits squalene epoxidase (SE). FR194738's ability to reduce cholesterol manufacture in HepG2 cells is compared to those of the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, Pravastatin, Fluvastatin, and Simvastatin. FR194738 has an IC50 of 2.1 nM, making it the most powerful of these drugs. The half-life of simvastatin is 40 nM, fluvastatin is 28 nM, and pravastatin is 5100 nM, respectively[2]. With an IC50 of 14 nM, FR194738 exhibits concentration-dependent inhibition of hamster liver microsomal squalene epoxidase activity[3].
ln Vivo
After daily FR194738 and Pravastatin injection for 10 days, the serum cholesterol levels in the hamsters are measured. Serum levels of triglycerides, total, non-high density lipoprotein (HDL), and HDL cholesterol are all lowered with FR194738. When FR194738 is administered to hamsters, their HMG-CoA reductase activity is increased by 1.3 times at 32 mg/kg in comparison to the control group, but it does not change appreciably at 100 mg/kg[3].
Cell Assay
HepG2 cells are grown in 225 cm2 culture flasks, and incubated for 18 h in medium A containing 10% human lipoprotein deficient serum and 1 μM L-654,969 to increase their squalene epoxidase activity. The HepG2 cells are washed and harvested by trypsin treatment. After centrifugation (1000×g, 5 min at 4°C), the supernatant fraction is removed by aspiration. The cell pellet is frozen and kept at -80 °C until use. On the day of the experiment, the stocked cell pellet is thawed, ruptured by sonication (5 s at 4°C) in 0.1 M Tris-HCl, pH 7.5 containing 1 mM EDTA, mixed with one-fourth volume of 2% Triton X-100, stood at 4°C for 30 min, and assayed for squalene epoxidase activity with some modifications. Aliquots of the mixture are incubated for 90 min at 37 °C with or without test compound (FR194738; 0.01 nM, 0.1 nM, 1 nM, 10 nM, 100 nM, 1 μM, and 10 μM) dissolved in DMSO (final 1%) in a final volume of 0.3 mL containing 0.1 M Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 1 mM EDTA, 1 mM NADPH, 0.1 mM FAD, 0.3 mM AMO1618, an inhibitor of 2,3-oxidosqualene cyclase, 0.17% Triton X-100, and 8 μM [3H]squalene (3.7 kBq) dispersed in 0.075% Tween 80. The reaction is stopped by the addition of 0.3 mL of 10% ethanolic KOH. After incubation for 90 min at 75°C, non-saponifiable materials are extracted with 2 mL of petroleum ether. The extracts are evaporated under a nitrogen stream. The residue is taken up in a small volume of diethylether, spotted on a silica gel thin layer chromatography (TLC) plate and developed in benzene/ethyl acetate (99.5:0.5, v/v)[1].
Animal Protocol
Hamsters[3] Six-week-old male golden Syrian hamsters (70-110 g) are used. Drugs are administered as a diet mixture for 10 d. Blood samples are collected via heart puncture under ether anesthesia and serum is prepared by centrifugation. The dose of 0.32% in diet corresponds to 127 and 116 mg/kg/d for FR194738 and Pravastatin, respectively, calculated from body weight and food intake.

*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
