LY2112688 (Ac-(d-Arg)-CEH-(d-Phe)-RWC-NH2) is a synthetic peptide selective melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) agonist with a Ki of 0.13 nM for human MC4R and Ki values of 165, 74, and 1713 nM for human MC1R, MC3R, and MC5R, respectively. LY2112688 activates MC4R-mediated cAMP signaling and promotes PYY and GLP-1 release by activating peripheral MC4R in enteroendocrine L cells; Kir7.1 signaling in MC4R neurons is involved in its sustained suppression of food intake. LY2112688 inhibits food intake in vivo and can elevate heart rate and blood pressure. LY2112688 is useful for research on obesity, energy homeostasis, and MC4R signaling [2] .
