Irofulven Usage And Synthesis

Uses

Setmelanotide (RM-493) is a selective melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) agonist with EC50s of 0.27 nM and 0.28 nM for human and rat MC4R, respectively[1].

in vivo

Inhibition of refeeding after an overnight fast by Setmelanotide is dependent on functional MC4R, and does not require MC3R. BIM-22493 acutely improves glucose homeostasis. Lepob/Lepob mice treated with BIM-22493 exhibits significantly improved glucose clearance when compared to controls. Chronic BIM-22493 treatment was associated with significantly lower levels of serum glucose and HOMA-IR values[1].
Treatment with setmelanotide results in transient decreases in food intake (35%), with persistent weight loss over 8 weeks of treatment (13.5%) in a diet-induced obese nonhuman primate model[2].
