BMS-779788 is a LXR partial agonist with IC 50 values of 68 nM for LXR α and 14 nM for LXR β .
In Vitro
The LXR selective partial agonist BMS-779788 is identified with potent induction of ATP binding transporters ABCA1 and ABCG1 in human whole blood (EC 50 =1.2 μM, 55% efficacy). MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
In Vivo
BMS-779788 induces LXR target genes in blood in vivo with an EC 50 =610 nM, a value similar to its in vitro blood gene induction potency. BMS-779788 is 29- and 12-fold less potent than the full agonist T0901317 in elevating plasma triglyceride and LDL cholesterol, respectively, with similar results for plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein and apolipoprotein B . In mice BMS-779788 displays peripheral induction of ABCA1 at 3 and 10 mpk doses with no significant elevation of plasma or hepatic triglycerides at these doses, showing an improved profile compared to a full pan-agonist. MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
This compound belongs to the class of organic compounds known as biphenyls and derivatives. These are organic compounds containing to benzene rings linked together by a C-C bond.
