Product Data
Biological target:
MS438 is a potent agonist of the TSH receptor (TSHR).
In vitro activity:
Molecule MS437 had a TSHR-stimulating potency with an EC50 of 13×10(-8) M, and molecule MS438 had an EC50 of 5.3×10(-8) M. The ability of these small molecule agonists to bind to the transmembrane domain of the receptor and initiate signal transduction was suggested by their activation of a chimeric receptor consisting of an LHR ectodomain and a TSHR transmembrane. Molecular modeling demonstrated that these molecules bound to residues S505 and E506 for MS438 and T501 for MS437 in the intrahelical region of transmembrane helix 3.
