RM2 

RM2 is a GRPr antagonist. RM2 selectively binds to GRPr, blocks agonist-induced receptor internalization, and inhibits agonist-triggered intracellular calcium mobilization. RM2 can be used in studies related to prostate cancer^[1].

RM2 binds the GRP receptor on human prostate carcinoma cryostat sections with high affinity, exhibiting an IC₅₀ of 7.7nmol/L^[1].
RM2 is a selective ligand for the GRP receptor on human tissue sections, with an IC₅₀ of 9.3 nmol/L and no measurable affinity for NMBr or BB3r subtypes^[1].
RM2 (1000 nmol/L; 30 min) acts as a GRP receptor antagonist in HEK-GRPr cells, failing to trigger receptor internalization at 1000 nmol/L but completely inhibiting Bombesin (HY-P0195)-induced receptor internalization at the same concentration^[1].
RM2 (1-10 μmol/L; 60 s) acts as a GRP receptor antagonist in PC-3 cells, showing no intrinsic activity on intracellular Ca²⁺ mobilization at 1 or 10 μmol/L, but inhibiting Bombesin (HY-P0195)-induced Ca²⁺ mobilization at 10 μmol/L^[1].

¹¹¹In-RM2 (10 pmol; intravenous tail vein injection) achieves high, sustained, GRPr-specific uptake in PC-3 prostate cancer xenografts, with tumour to blood ratios reaching 4070 at 72 hours post-injection^[1].
⁶⁸Ga-RM2 (80 pmol; intravenous injection) exhibits high, GRPr-specific uptake in PC-3 prostate cancer xenografts, with tumour to kidney ratios reaching 6.1 at 80 minutes post-injection^[1].
⁶⁸Ga-RM2 (80 pmol; intravenous injection) achieves specific, GRPr-mediated uptake in androgen-dependent LNCaP prostate cancer xenografts, with tumour to blood ratios reaching 23.4 at 120 minutes post-injection^[1].
