Application

SR8278 has been used as a nuclear receptor subfamily 1, group D, member 1 (NR1D1) antagonist to study its effects on starvation-induced macrophages.
SR8278 was used as rev-erb alpha antagonist to study the regulation of glucagon secretion in mouse pancreatic alpha cells1 and beta cells.2

Biochem/physiol Actions

SR8278 is a Nuclear Heme Receptor REV-ERB antagonist. REV-ERBα plays a critical role in regulation of the circadian rhythm by repressing target gene activities. Additionally, REV-ERBα has been shown to regulate metabolic processes including lipid and glucose metabolism. SR8278 blocks the ability of the synthetic agonist GSK4112 to enhance REV-ERBα-dependent repression and stimulates the expression of REV-ERBα target genes involved in gluconeogenesis.

Progressive lung injury and pulmonary inflammation can be induced by an intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) is a key pro-inflammatory cytokine that can further exaggerate inflammation, which is cleaved and activated by the NALP3 inflammasome. Although the nuclear

Disruption of pancreatic clock genes impairs pancreatic beta-cell function, leading to the onset of diabetes. Despite the importance of pancreatic alpha-cells in the regulation of glucose homeostasis and in diabetes pathophysiology, nothing is known about the role of clock genes
