Application

SR-12813 was used as control in pregnane X receptor (PXR) binding assay performed in HepG2 liver carcinoma cells and PXR-activation assay mediated by dehydroepiandrosterone in human hepatocytes.

Biochem/physiol Actions

SR-12813 is a 1,1-bisphosphonate ester that exhibits hypocholesterolemic activity. It decreases the biosynthesis of cholesterol by enhancing the degradation of HMG-CoA reductase.
SR 12813 is a pregnane X receptor (PXR, NR 112) agonist; cholesterol lowering drug; HMGCoA reductase inhibitor.

SR-12813 (tetra-ethyl 2-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)ethenyl-1, 1-bisphosphonate) lowers plasma cholesterol in five species. In this paper we investigate the underlying mechanism using Hep G2 cells. SR-12813 inhibited incorporation of tritiated water into cholesterol with an IC50 of 1.2 microM but had no effect

Insig-1 and Insig-2 are membrane proteins of the endoplasmic reticulum that regulate lipid metabolism by the following two actions: 1) sterol-induced binding to 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase, an action that leads to ubiquitination and degradation of the enzyme; and 2) sterol-induced

The human pregnane X receptor (hPXR) regulates the expression of critical drug metabolism enzymes. One of such enzymes, cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4), plays critical roles in drug metabolism in hepatocytes that are either quiescent or passing through the cell cycle.
