    Product Description

    GSK4112 is a synthetic agonist for REV-ERBα (EC50 = 0.4 μM) that was designed to mimic the action of heme.1,2 At 10 μM, GSK4112 can reset the circadian rhythm in a phasic manner by inhibiting expression of the circadian target gene bmal1 and reduce glucose output by 30% in mouse primary hepatocytes by repressing the expression of several gluconeogenic genes.1 GSK4112 has been used to investigate the function of REV-ERBα in the coordination of circadian rhythm and metabolism in rat ovaries.3

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
