Ordering Information

Biological Activity

GW7647 is a potent peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) agonist that selectively activates human PPARα over PPARγ and PPARδ. Activation of PPARα by GW7647 regulates gene transcription involved in lipid metabolism and fatty acid oxidation. In cell-based assays, GW7647 stimulates PPARα-mediated transcriptional activity, modulating metabolic signaling pathways and cellular lipid homeostasis.

FAQ
Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
  • Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
  • Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
  • For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
  • Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
