Uses
L755507 is a novel, potent, and selective β3 adrenergic receptor (β3-AR) that can enhance CRISPR genome editing in pluripotent stem cells. It may also serve as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of type II diabetes and obesity.

General Description
L755507 is a derivative of 4-acylaminobenzenesulfonamide.
Biological Activity
Subnanomolar potent β 3 -adrenergic receptor partial agonist that is > 1000-fold selective over β 1 - and β 2 -adrenoceptors (EC 50 values are 0.43, 580 and > 10000 nM for activation of cloned human β 3 -, β 1 - and β 2 -adrenoceptors respectively). In vitro, stimulates lipolysis in rhesus adipocytes with an EC 50 of 3.9 nM.
Biochem/physiol Actions
L755507 is a potent β3-adrenergic receptor partial agonist with an EC50 value of 0.43 nM for β3 receptors with over 440-fold selectivity for β3 compared to β1 and β2-adrenergic receptor binding. L755507 has been shown to enhance CRISPR-mediated homology-directed repair (HDR) efficiency in human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), increasing the efficiency of GFP insertion by 3-fold compared to control cells.
in vitro
l-755,507 displays an excellent activity profile as an extremely potent human β3 adrenergic receptor agonist (β3 ec50 0.43 nm), with >440-fold selectivity over β1 and β2 binding [1]. l-755,507 is also a potent and selective b3 partial agonist in rhesus monkeys as assessed by its affinity for the cloned b adrenergic receptors, and stimulates lipolysis in rhesus adipocytes with an ec50 = 3.9 nm [2].
in vivo
dose rhesus monkeys with l-755,507 elicits lipolysis and metabolic rate elevation. the ed50 for glycerolemia was 0.03 mg/kg and the ed50 for tachycardia was 2.5 mg/kg, and stimulates metabolic rate by ~ 30% after acute bolus intravenous administration of 0.1 mg/kg [2].
IC 50
13 nm (binding at the human β3 adrenergic receptor) [1]
