Application

GW7647 has been used as a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPAR α) ligand: in defatting medium to treat primary human hepatocytes to test its effect on the glycolytic function in cardiomyocytes to test its effect on infant mouse heart in breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells to activate PPARs

Biochem/physiol Actions

Potent human PPARα agonist. Use to study the biology of PPARα receptor in human cells.

GW7647 reduces serum triglyceride levels and enhances hepatic expression of genes associated with β-oxidation. Usage of GW7647 along with metformin in conditions of liver steatosis or injury improves the enzymatic levels of aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) in serum.
