Description：MR 409 is a selected growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) agonist. MR 409 has remarkable neuroprotective effects through enhancing endogenous neurogenesis in cerebral ischemic mice. MR 409 also inhibits the in vivo growth of lung cancer.

In Vitro：One week post-myocardial infarction (MI), MR 409 (MR-409) significantly reduces plasma levels of IL-2, IL-6, IL-10 and TNF-α compared to placebo[1]. MR 409 (MR-409; 1 μM) suppresses p53 expression in bovine pulmonary arterial endothelial cells (BPAECs)[2]. MR 409 (1 μM) induces the activation of JAK2, STAT3 and ERK1/2[2]. MR 409 (MR-409; 1 and 5 μM) decreases LPS-induced PGE2 and 8-iso-PGF2α levels, in a dose-dependent manner[3]. MR 409 (1 and 5μM) decreases LPS-induced lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity and nitrite production, without showing a dose-dependent effect[3]. MR 409 (1 and 5 μM) decreases LPS-induced gene expression of COX-2, NF-κB and iNOS in colon specimens, without a dose-dependent effect[3]. MR 409 (MR-409) can stimulate endogenous neurogenesis and improve the tMCAO-induced loss of neuroplasticity. MR 409 also enhances the proliferation and inhibits apoptosis of neural stem cells treated with oxygen and glucose deprivation-reperfusion[4].

In Vivo：MR 409 (MR-409) inhibits the in vivo growth of lung cancer xenografted into nude mice[3]. MR 409 (5 μg; s.c. treated daily for 4 weeks) reduces nociceptive response in mice[3].
