In vitro profile of the MCH1 receptor antagonist on human and murine MCH receptors

Binding assaya

MCH1 antagonist 2.8 ± 0.4 3.8 ± 0.6 >9700 ± 100 26.5 ± 0.9
MCH 0.03 ± 0.01 0.05 ± 0.01 1.6 ± 0.6

Ki values for MCH1 and MCH2 receptors were determined using [125I] MCH and [Phe13, [125I] Tyr19]-MCH respectively. The values are means ± standard error (n= 3).

IC50, half maximal inhibitory concentration; MCH, melanin-concentrating hormone.
