GSK-J4 free base | CAS#1373423-53-0 | Histone demethylase Inhibitor

MedKoo Cat#: 555282 | Name: GSK-J4 free base

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

GSK-J4 is a cell permeable, potent and selective histone demethylase. GSK-J4 is a prodrug of GSK J1, which is the first selective inhibitor of the H3K27 histone demethylase JMJD3 and UTX with IC50 of 60 nM in a cell-free assay and inactive against a panel of demethylases of the JMJ family. GSK-J4 is used to probe the consequences of demethylation of H3K27me3. GSK-J4 inhibits the lipopolysaccharide-induced production of cytokines, including pro-inflammatory tumour necrosis factor (TNF).

Biological target:

GSK-J4 is a potent dual inhibitor of H3K27me3/me2-demethylases JMJD3/KDM6B and UTX/KDM6A with IC50s of 8.6 and 6.6 μM, respectively. GSK-J4 inhibits LPS-induced TNF-α production in human primary macrophages with an IC50 of 9 μM.

In vitro activity:

Hence, this study analyzed the LDH level in the culture medium of AC16 cell (Figure 1F) and neonatal rat cardiomyocyte (NRCM) (Figure 1G) and found that PA (palmitic acid) could stimulate LDH release, while GSK-J4 significantly reduced its releasement. Reference: Front Cardiovasc Med. 2022 Jun 2;9:907747. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35722096/

In vivo activity:

There was a significant increase in the amount of α-SMA, fibronectin, and fibronectin as well as collagen IV protein accumulations (Figure 4), whereas in STZ (streptozotocin)-induced diabetic mice that were treated with GSK-J4, the staining areas of fibronectin and collagen IV fibrosis-related proteins were reduced relative to those that were not treated with GSK-J4 (Figure 3). In addition, the accumulation of α-SMA, fibronectin, and collagen IV proteins in the kidneys of the diabetic mice that were given GSK-J4 was also significantly lower than in those that were not given GSK-J4 (Figure 4).

Note: There can be variations in solubility for the same chemical from different vendors or different batches from the same vendor. The following factors can affect the solubility of the same chemical: solvent used for crystallization, residual solvent content, polymorphism, salt versus free form, degree of hydration, solvent temperature. Please use the solubility data as a reference only. Warming and sonication will facilitate dissolving. Still have questions? Please contact our Technical Support scientists.
