Product Data
Biological target:
MJ15 is a potent and selective CB1 receptor antagonist with a Ki of 27.2 pM and an IC50 of 118.9 pM for rat CB1 receptors.
In vitro activity:
In addition, MJ15 dose-dependently blocked Win55212-2 mediated increase of intracellular Ca(2+) levels in hippocampal cells and reversed the inhibitory effects of cannabinoid CB(1) receptor agonist on forskolin-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity in CHO cells expressing the human cannabinoid CB(1) receptor. Reference: Eur J Pharmacol. 2010 Jul 10;637(1-3):178-85. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20380831/
In vivo activity:
In animal experiments, MJ15 demonstrated remarkable effects from 20 to 40 mg/kg, including promoted the small intestine peristalsis in ICR mice and inhibited food intake and body weight increase in diet-induced obesity (DIO) rat and mouse. 40 mg/kg MJ15 significantly reduced food intake at initial 2 weeks of treatment, prevented the increase of body weight and adipose by 46% and 28% respectively in DIO rats, and reduced body weight and adipose gain by 70% and 23% respectively in early onset obesity DIO mice after 4 weeks treatment.
