Product Data
Biological target:
MHY908 is a potent dual agonist of PPARα and PPARγ.
In vitro activity:
This study investigates the action of 2-[4-(5-chlorobenzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)phenoxy]-2-methylpropanoic acid (MHY908) specifically in the inhibition of melanogenesis, a mushroom tyrosinase activity assay was performed. This study confirmed the inhibitory effect of MHY908 at various melanin concentrations using α-MSH-induced melanoma cells. These results indicate that MHY908 potently inhibited mushroom tyrosinase activity (IC50 = 8.19 μM) in a dose-dependent manner. Reference: Arch Pharm Res. 2015 Apr;38(4):505-11. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25502981/
In vivo activity:
This study evaluated the neuroprotective effects of MHY908 in a 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced mouse model of PD. Pretreatment with MHY908 attenuated MPTP-induced dopaminergic neuronal loss and motor deficit. MPTP-induced glial activations were mitigated by MHY908 in the nigrostriatal pathway, and MHY908 effectively blocked 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+)-induced cell death and ROS production in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells.
