GSK4112 is a rev-erbα, (orphan nuclear receptor NR1D1) agonist, the first agent able to reset the circadian clock in a phase-dependent manner. Rev-erbα impacts the precision of the circadian clock by repressing target gene activities with the help of a nuclear receptor co-repressor complex (NCoR) and HDAC3. GSK4112 competes with heme (rev-erb′s natural ligand) and enhances co-repressor complex recruitment and thus, repression of transcription. suggests that pharmacological modulation through Rev-erb may provide new routes to treat metabolic diseases, especially disorders of adipogenesis regulated by rev-erba.

The orphan nuclear receptors REV-ERBα and REV-ERBβ (REV-ERBs) are crucial in the regulation of inflammatory-related gene transcription in astroglioma cells, but their role in nociceptive transduction has yet to be elaborated. Spinal dorsal horn astrocytes contribute to the maintenance of
REV-ERBα, the NR1D1 (nuclear receptor subfamily 1, group D, member 1) gene product, is a dominant transcriptional silencer that represses the expression of genes involved in numerous physiological functions, including circadian rhythm, inflammation, and metabolism, and plays a crucial role

Proliferation and apoptosis are important physiological processes of preadipocytes. Rev-erbα is a circadian clock gene, and its activity contributes to several physiological processes in various cells. Previous studies demonstrated that Rev-erbα promotes preadipocyte differentiation, but a role of Rev-erbα on
