High-affinity, potent and selective melanocortin receptor 4 (MC-4R, MC4-R, MC4R) agonist with in vivo efficacy in a chronic rat food intake and body weight model.
LY2112688 is a beta-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (β-MSH)-derived peptide that acts as a high-affinity, potent and selective melanocortin receptor 4 (MC-4, MC-4R, MC4-R, MC4R) agonist (human/rat MC-4 Ki = 0.55/0.39 nM; human MC-1/3/5 Ki = 16.78/56.79/>500 nM). LY2112688 selectively induces MC-4-mediated cAMP release (MC-4/3 EC50 = 0.25 nM/1.61 nM, MC-4/3 Emax = 94.5%/84.1% of NDP-α-MSH Emax using HEK293 expressing respective human receptors) and exhibits in vivo efficacy in reducing daily food intake and promoting weight loss among diet-induced obese rats (75 & 299 nmol/kg/day s.c.).

Weight gain and weight loss are associated with changes in blood pressure through unknown mechanisms. Central melanocortinergic signaling is implicated in the control of energy balance and blood pressure in rodents, but there is no information regarding such an association

The melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) is well recognized as an important mediator of body weight homeostasis. Activation of MC4R causes dramatic weight loss in rodent models, and mutations in human are associated with obesity. This makes MC4R a logical target for

Genetic defects underlying the melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) signaling pathway lead to severe obesity. Three severely obese LEPR-deficient individuals were administered the MC4R agonist setmelanotide, resulting in substantial and durable reductions in hyperphagia and body weight over an observation period of

The melanocortin receptors (MCRs) belong to the G-protein coupled receptors (family A). So far, 5 different subtypes have been described (MC1R-MC5R) and of these MC2R and MC5R have been proposed to act directly in adipocytes and regulate lipolysis in rodents.

A series of novel, disulfide-constrained human beta-melanocyte stimulating hormone (beta-MSH)-derived peptides were optimized for in vitro melanocortin-4 receptor (MC-4R) binding affinity, agonist efficacy, and selectivity. The most promising of these, analogue 18, was further studied in vivo using chronic rat
