Applications

Activates chaperone mediated autophagy

Functions

Atypical retinoid that acts as an RARα antagonist and activates chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) via an RAR-dependent pathway. Downstream signaling results in an increase of LAMP-2A expression. Cells pretreated with AR7 had markedly improved viability in a paraquat-induced oxidative stress model. AR7 stimulated CMA and attenuated accumulation of SNCA oligomers in prolonged cultures of mutant cortical neurons2 indicating that CMA activation may be a viable disease-modifying strategy in Parkinson’s disease. A targetome analysis of AR7-induced CMA in cancer cells has been performed.

Application Procedures

First dissolved in DMSO (30 mg/ml), then diluted to aqueous buffer. Solutions in DMSO may be stored at -20°C for up to 1 month.
