GW0742, also known as GW610742, is a potent and highly selective PPARβ/δ agonist, with IC50 of 1 nM, with 1000-fold selectivity over hPPARα and hPPARγ. GW0742 treatment has a prominent anti-inflammatory effect in 5XFAD mice and suggests that PPARδ agonists may have therapeutic utility in treating AD. GW0742 has the ability to improve glucose homeostasis in diabetic rats through activation of PPAR-δ. Therefore, PPAR-δ is a good target for the development of antidiabetic drugs in the future.

Route of Administration: Oral

In Vitro Use Guide

GW0742 (0.2 uM and 1 uM) treatment results in significant increases in reporter activity of PPARβ/δ in N/TERT-1 keratinocytes. GW0742 (1 uM) results in significant inhibition in the average number of N/TERT-1 keratinocytes. GW0742 (1 uM) results in an increase in the number of cells in the G1 phase and a decrease in the number of cells in the S phase.
