Setmelanotide monoacetate (RM-493 monoacetate) is a blood-brain barrier-permeable, selective MC4R agonist with a K_i value of 2.1 nM for hMC4R. Setmelanotide monoacetate activates the CaMKK2/AMPK signaling pathway. Setmelanotide monoacetate mediates body weight homeostasis, feeding regulation and energy expenditure modulation; it reduces food intake, induces weight loss, decreases obesity severity, increases daytime activity and energy expenditure, lowers levels of leptin, triglycerides, fasting insulin and diastolic blood pressure, improves insulin sensitivity, glucose tolerance and fatty liver condition, and reverses respiratory depression. Setmelanotide monoacetate is applicable to research related to obesity, hyperinsulinemia, fatty liver and respiratory depression.

体外実験

Setmelanotide binds to hMC1R, MC3R, MC4R and rat MC4R with high affinity, while it shows weak binding affinity to hMC5R^[1].
Setmelanotide monoacetate (increasing concentrations; treated at 37°C for 40 min) acts as an agonist to stimulate cAMP production in CHO-K1 cells expressing hMC1R, hMC3R, hMC4R, and rat MC4R; it shows weak activity on hMC5R and no activity on mouse MC2R^[1].
Setmelanotide is a potent agonist of hMC4R, with a binding K_i of 2.1 nM and a cAMP EC₅₀ of 0.27 nM in CHO-K1 cells, and exhibits low potency against hMC1R, hMC3R and hMC5R^[4].
Setmelanotide (>1.0×10⁻⁶ M) has no affinity for the μ-opioid receptor, as its IC₅₀ exceeds 1.0×10⁻⁶ M in competitive radioligand binding assays^[5].

体内実験

Setmelanotide monoacetate (300 nmol/kg/day; subcutaneous injection; continuous administration for 14 days) induces weight loss, improves hyperinsulinemia, reduces total cholesterol and leptin levels, and reverses hepatic steatosis in diet-induced obese C57BL/6J mice^[1].
Monoacetate of Setmelanotide (6.4 μmol; intraperitoneal injection; single dose) acutely improves glucose clearance in leptin-deficient obese and glucose-intolerant C57BL/6J mice^[1].
Monoacetate of Setmelanotide (6.4 μmol; intraperitoneal injection; single dose) suppresses refeeding-induced food intake in C57BL/6J mice fed a normal diet, and this effect depends on functional MC4R rather than MC3R^[1].
Monoacetate of Setmelanotide (0.17-0.5 mg/kg/day; administered via a 2-week minipump every two weeks; for 8 weeks or variable duration) reduces peak body weight by 13.5% in diet-induced obese rhesus monkeys, improves insulin sensitivity and cardiovascular function, and does not cause adverse increases in heart rate or blood pressure; whereas lower doses only improve insulin sensitivity with minimal effects on body weight or cardiovascular parameters^[2].
Monoacetate of Setmelanotide (0.05 mg/kg; i.p.; single administration) activates PVN MC4R neurons via the CaMKK2/AMPK signaling pathway, thereby normalizing food intake during short-term refeeding in rats with hypothalamic obesity^[3].
Setmelanotide monoacetate (0.05 mg/kg; i.p.; once daily) activates PVN MC4R neurons via the CaMKK2/AMPK signaling pathway, reduces food intake, body weight, Lee index and perirenal adipose tissue weight, thereby reversing hypothalamic obesity in rats^[3].
Monoacetate of Setmelanotide (6.4 µmole-1.34 mg/kg/day; intraperitoneal injection, subcutaneous injection; single injection, daily administration; for 14 consecutive days) induces MC4R-dependent feeding suppression and body weight loss in diet-induced obese mice^[4].
Monoacetate of Setmelanotide (100-500 nmol/kg; subcutaneous injection; single administration) suppresses food intake in fasted male Sprague-Dawley rats^[4].
Monoacetate of Setmelanotide (1 mg/kg; i.p.; single administration) effectively treats morphine-induced opioid-induced respiratory depression (OIRD) in lean male C57BL/6J mice by increasing respiratory rate and reducing apnea index, without impairing opioid analgesic effects^[5].
Monoacetate of Setmelanotide (1 mg/kg; i.p.; single administration) effectively treats morphine-induced opioid-related respiratory depression in obese male C57BL/6J mice by increasing respiratory rate and reducing the frequency and duration of apnea, without affecting opioid analgesic effects^[5].

Stock Solution Working Solution

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss.
