Description
[D-Trp8]-γ-MSH TFA is a potent and selective agonist of melanocortin 3 (MC3) receptor, with IC50s of 6.7 nM, 600 nM and 340 nM for hMC3, hMC4 and hMC5, respectively in CHO cells. [D-Trp8]-γ-MSH TFA could provide protection against multiple inflammatory disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis and colitis[1][2].—COVID-19-immunoregulation–C74H99N21O16S.xC2HF3O2—-[1]Grieco P, et, al.
