SLU-PP-332 — Pan-ERR Agonist (Exercise-Mimetic Tool Compound)
SLU-PP-332 is a small-molecule agonist of the estrogen-related receptors (ERRα/β/γ), with greatest potency at ERRα (EC50 ≈ 98 nM). It is widely used to probe mitochondrial biogenesis, oxidative metabolism, and “exercise-mimetic” programs in preclinical models.
Identifiers
- Other name: 4-Hydroxy-N-[(Z)-naphthalen-2-ylmethylideneamino]benzamide
- CAS: 303760-60-3 • PubChem CID: 5404083
- Formula: C18H14N2O2 • Core class: ERR agonist (pan), strongest at ERRα
How It Works (Plain English)
- Activates nuclear receptors ERRα/β/γ, partnering with co-activators like PGC-1α to up-regulate genes for mitochondrial biogenesis, OXPHOS, and fat oxidation.
- Functionally mimics endurance-training signals (↑ energy expenditure, ↑ oxidative capacity) in animal and cell models.
Why Researchers Use It
- To map exercise-responsive transcription and mitochondrial programs in muscle/adipose models.
- To study metabolic syndrome/obesity pathways and insulin sensitivity in diet-induced models.
- To explore aging kidney/cardiac mitochondrial dysfunction and inflammation.
Key Studies — What Was Tested, What Changed, Why It Matters
Exercise-mimetic effects (preclinical)
- What was tested: ERR agonist activity of SLU-PP-332 and downstream endurance-like adaptations in mice.
- What changed: ↑ energy expenditure; improved fat metabolism; enhanced running/endurance capacity without increasing food intake.
- Why it matters: Useful tool for dissecting exercise-responsive metabolic programs without confounding activity changes.
Metabolic syndrome/obesity models
- What was tested: ERR pan-agonism in diet-induced obesity/metabolic syndrome models.
- What changed: ↓ adiposity, improved glucose tolerance/insulin sensitivity, better lipid handling. [oa
- Why it matters: Positions ERR activation as a tractable node for obesity/metabolic disease research.
Aging kidney & mitochondrial inflammation
- What was tested: SLU-PP-332 in aging-kidney models with mitophagy/Inflammation endpoints.
- What changed: Reversed mitochondrial dysfunction and reduced inflammatory signaling in aged mice.
- Why it matters: Extends ERR agonism beyond adipose/muscle to organ aging biology.
Potential Research Applications
Mitochondria & Bioenergetics
- TFAM/NRF1/NRF2, OXPHOS panels; mitochondrial copy-number & respiration assays
Metabolic Disease Models
- Diet-induced obesity, fatty-acid oxidation, glucose tolerance & insulin sensitivity
Healthy Aging / Organ Function
- Kidney/cardiac mitochondrial dysfunction; inflammatory signaling resolution
Synergistic / Comparator Agents
MOTS-c
- Why pair: Mitochondrial peptide; combine with ERR agonism to study bioenergetics + metabolic resilience.
AICAR or AMPK Activators (comparator)
- Why compare: Distinguish AMPK-first signaling from nuclear-receptor-first (ERR) programs.
GLP-1 / Cagrilintide (comparator)
- Why compare: Appetite-centric vs exercise-mimetic mechanisms in weight-loss research.
Known Concerns (Context)
- Tool compound status: Evidence is preclinical; human safety/PK not established. Design studies conservatively.
- Nuclear receptor breadth: Pan-ERR agonism may yield off-target transcriptional programs; include broad transcriptomics where possible.
- General: For laboratory research use only; not for human consumption or therapeutic use.
Specifications & Handling
- Form: Small-molecule research compound (solid)
- Purity: Research-grade (HPLC/MS)
- Storage: Cool, dry; protect from light/moisture; verify lot-specific guidance
- In solution: Typically soluble in DMSO; record solvent %, pH, and time-to-assay; minimize freeze–thaw
- Labeling: Tamper-evident; “research use only”; CAS and lot on label
