GW-4064 is a synthetic small molecule selective agonist of the orphan nuclear receptor FXR developed by GlaxoSmithKline. GW-4064-mediated FXR activation ameliorates diet-induced obesity, suppresses hepatic lipid accumulation, and maintains glucose and lipid homeostasis in C57BL/6 mice. GW-4064-treated tumors exhibited decreased levels of leptin-regulated proteins along with a strong staining intensity for SOCS3. Thus, FXR ligand GW-4064 might represent an emerging potential anti-cancer therapy able to block the tumor supportive role of activated fibroblasts within the breast microenvironment.

Sample Use Guides

Mice: Fifteen week-old C57BL/6 mice fed with high-fat diet (HFD) or high-fat, high-cholesterol diet were treated by twice weekly injection of GW-4064 (50 mg/kg) intraperitoneally or DMSO (carrier solution) for 6 weeks. Activation of FXR by GW-4064 suppressed weight gain in C57BL/6 mice fed with either HFD or high-fat and high-cholesterol diet.
Route of Administration: Intraperitoneal
In Vitro Use Guide
Curator's Comment: GW-4064 (5 umol/L; 24 h), a specific FXR agonist, induced nuclear translocation of the receptor in T84 cells and attenuated Cl(-) secretory responses to both Ca(2+) and cAMP-dependent agonists. GW-4064 also prevented agonist-induced inhibition of NHE3 in Caco-2 cells. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23916961
GW-4064 is a full agonist with EC50 values of 80 and 90 nM, respectively, in CV-1 cells transfected with mouse and human FXR expression vectors and an established reporter gene. There is no activity of GW-4064 on other nuclear receptors, including the retinoic acid receptor, at concentrations up to 1 uM.
