  2. Cannabinoid Receptor
  3. AM6545

AM6545 is a highly selective, brain-free (peripherally active) CB1 receptor antagonist (Ki=1.7 nM). AM6545 inhibits endocannabinoid signaling by competitively antagonizing CB1 receptors, inhibiting CB1-mediated appetite stimulation and inflammatory responses without affecting cAMP levels. AM6545 significantly reduces food intake and body weight in mice, while improving metabolic syndrome-related renal impairment (such as proteinuria, fibrosis) and insulin resistance. AM6545 can be used in the study of obesity and its complications.

Description

AM6545 is a highly selective, brain-free (peripherally active) CB1 receptor antagonist (Ki=1.7 nM). AM6545 inhibits endocannabinoid signaling by competitively antagonizing CB1 receptors, inhibiting CB1-mediated appetite stimulation and inflammatory responses without affecting cAMP levels. AM6545 significantly reduces food intake and body weight in mice, while improving metabolic syndrome-related renal impairment (such as proteinuria, fibrosis) and insulin resistance. AM6545 can be used in the study of obesity and its complications[1][2][3].

In Vitro

AM6545 (3 μM; cAMP assay) does not affect forskolin (HY-15371)-induced cAMP levels in HEK293 cells, exhibiting neutral antagonist properties[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Cell Viability Assay[1]

Cell Line: HEK293 (hCB1/hCB2-transfected)
Concentration: 1.7 nM (CB1 binding), 3 mM (cAMP assay)
Incubation Time:
Result: Showed high CB1 affinity (Ki=1.7 nM) and no effect on forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation in hCB1-expressing cells, acting as a neutral antagonist.
In Vivo

AM6545 (5-20 mg/kg; i.p.; once daily; 7 days or single dose) reduces food intake and sustaines body weight in Sprague Dawley rats at 10 and 20 mg/kg when treated chronically or acutely[1].
AM6545 (10 mg/kg; ip; single dose) treatment of C57BL/6 J mice specifically induces PKA signaling activation in adipose tissue and upregulated Akt-mTOR and ERK phosphorylation levels[2].
AM6545 (10 mg/kg; i.p.; once daily; 4 weeks) significantly improves renal function, inhibited proteinuria, uric acid excretion and renal fibrosis in a rat model of metabolic syndrome[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: Sprague Dawley rats (male, 250-275 g; normal/high-fat diet models)[1]
Dosage: 5 mg/kg, 10 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg (4% DMSO, 1% Tween 80 in saline)
Administration: Intraperitoneal injection, daily for 7 days or single dose.
Result: Reduced food intake (30% inhibition at 3 h) and body weight gain (days 4-7) at 10 mg/kg dose, without inducing conditioned taste avoidance or gaping.
Animal Model: Metabolic syndrome rats (male, Wistar; high-fructose/high-salt diet-induced)[3]
Dosage: 10 mg/kg (0.5% carboxymethylcellulose)
Administration: Intraperitoneal injection, daily for 4 weeks
Result: Reduced proteinuria (50%) and urinary uric acid (attenuated 10-fold increase), alleviated glomerular hypertrophy, tubular injury, and collagen deposition, and suppressed renal TGFβ1 expression.
Animal Model: C57BL/6 mice (male, 18.5-21.0 g; normal diet)[2]
Dosage: 10 mg/kg (4% DMSO, 10% Tween 80, 80-95% saline)
Administration: Intraperitoneal injection, single.
Result: Significantly modified p-PKA substrates in adipose and liver tissue, but the responsive substrates are tissue-specific and remain to be determined
Upregulated ERK1 phosphorylation at Thr202 in WAT, liver, TA.
Upregulated p-Akt(Ser473) and p-mTOR(Ser2448) in liver.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
