Description
WYE 672 is a tissue-selective liver X receptor (LXR) agonist with reported IC50 activity of 53 nM for LXRβ and substantially weaker binding to LXRα. It provides pharmacological preference for LXRβ-associated signaling.
LXR receptors regulate cholesterol efflux, lipid metabolism, inflammatory gene expression and macrophage biology. WYE 672 is useful for studying LXRβ-selective nuclear receptor modulation in metabolic and inflammatory models.
Key Features
- LXRβ-preferring agonist
- Reported IC50: 53 nM for LXRβ
- Tissue-selective LXR pharmacology
- Relevant to cholesterol and lipid homeostasis research
Applications
- LXR reporter assays
- Cholesterol efflux studies
- Macrophage lipid metabolism research
- Nuclear receptor modulator profiling
