Biochem/physiol Actions

Macimorelin (AEZS-130; ARD-07; EP1572; UMV1843; Aib-DTrp-DgTrp-CHO) is an orally active peptido-mimetic growth hormone (GH) secretagogue (GHS) that targets human and animal GHS-receptor (IC50 in nM = 10.2/ghrelin, 12.3/hexaghrelin, 15.6/macimorelin against ghrelin binding to human GHS-R) with potent and selective GH-releasing activity in vivo (GH level = 158.8 μg/L 15 min post 300 μg/kg s.c. in neonatal rats; 11.3 μg/L without treatment).

EP1572 UMV1843 [Aib-DTrp-DgTrp-CHO]) is a new peptido-mimetic GH secretagogue (GHS) showing binding potency to the GHS-receptor in animal and human tissues similar to that of ghrelin and peptidyl GHS. EP1572 induces marked GH increase after s.c. administration in neonatal rats.

Recent research suggests a role for ghrelin in the modulation of inflammatory disorders. However, the type of ghrelin receptor (GHS-R) involved in both the anti-inflammatory and anti-hyperalgesic actions of ghrelin remains to be characterized. In this study, we examined whether

Current drugs for epilepsy affect seizures, but no antiepileptogenic or disease-modifying drugs are available that prevent or slow down epileptogenesis, which is characterized by neuronal cell loss, inflammation and aberrant network formation.

Ghrelin and agonists of its receptor GHS-R1a are potential substances for the treatment of cachexia. In the present study, we investigated the acute and long term effects of the GHS R1a agonist JMV 1843 (H Aib-DTrp-D-gTrp-CHO) on food intake, body
