[D-Trp8]-gamma-MSH (trifluoroacetate salt)

[D-Trp8]-gamma-MSH is a melanocortin receptor 3 (MC3R) agonist and an analog of gamma-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (gamma-MSH). It selectively induces cAMP accumulation in cells expressing MC3R over cells expressing MC4R or MC5R (EC50s = 0.33, 100, and 82 nM, respectively, for the human receptors). In vivo, [D-Trp8]-gamma-MSH (162 nmol/kg, i.v.) reduces the incidence of ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, and death in a rat model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. It also inhibits urate-induced chemokine (C-X-C) motif ligand 1 (CXCL1) release and peritoneal polymorphonuclear leukocyte accumulation in recessive yellow (e/e) mice with a non-functional MC1R.Formal Name: L-tyrosyl-L-valyl-L-methionylglycyl-L-histidyl-L-phenylalanyl-L-arginyl-D-tryptophyl-L-alpha-aspartyl-L-arginyl-L-phenylalanyl-glycine, trifluoroacetate salt.
