IC50: 0.58 nM (melanocortin 4 receptor) IC50: 2.4 nM (melanocortin 5 receptor) IC50: 55 nM (melanocortin 3 receptor)[1]
MC4 (melanocortin 4) receptor. PG-931 is a potent and selective agonist at this receptor. |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
PG-931 is a potent MC4 receptor agonist with an IC50 of 0.58 nM at the human MC4 receptor. It is more selective for MC4 compared to hMC3R (IC50 = 55 nM) and hMC5R (IC50 = 2.4 nM). The key structural features include a cyclic lactam bridge and specific amino acids crucial for receptor binding and selectivity.
|
| ln Vivo |
In Wistar rats suffering from hemorrhagic shock, PG-931 (intravenous injection; 13-108 nmol/kg; single dosage) improves survival and restores circulatory and respiratory functions in a dose-dependent manner[2].
In vivo, PG-931 has been shown to reverse haemorrhagic shock and prevent multiple organ damage. This effect is attributed to its potent agonist activity at the MC4 receptor, which plays a role in the regulation of cardiovascular function and the inflammatory response to shock. |
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro receptor binding assays are performed to determine the affinity of PG-931 for MC4, MC3, and MC5 receptors. Radioligand binding studies using membrane preparations from cells expressing the receptors are conducted. The compound's ability to displace a specific radiolabeled ligand from each receptor is measured to calculate its IC50 values.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell-based assays are conducted using cells expressing recombinant MC4 receptors. The cells are treated with PG-931, and receptor activation is measured by assessing downstream signaling events such as cAMP accumulation. The potency of the compound at MC4 is determined from these functional assays.

| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Wistar rats[2]
Doses: 13-108 nmol/kg Route of Administration: intravenous (iv) injection; single dose Experimental Results: demonstrated an anti-shock effect occurred at nanomolar doses. In vivo studies are conducted in animal models to evaluate the effects of PG-931 on haemorrhagic shock and organ damage. The compound is administered via various routes, and its effects on hemodynamic parameters, inflammatory markers, and organ function are assessed. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
No detailed pharmacokinetic data are publicly available for PG-931. As a peptide, its pharmacokinetic properties would be characterized by limited oral bioavailability and rapid clearance. Its ADME properties would be studied in preclinical models to guide in vivo experiments.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No specific toxicity data are publicly available for PG-931. As a peptide agonist, its toxicity profile is expected to be related to its mechanism of action. Standard safety assessments would be required for any therapeutic development.
