MHY 908
- Soluble in 0.1N NaOH(aq) and DMSO
- MF: C17H14ClNO3S
- MW: 347.82
Description
MHY 908 is a dual PPARα/PPARγ agonist with additional anti-melanogenic activity through tyrosinase inhibition. It activates nuclear receptor pathways linked to lipid metabolism and insulin sensitization while reducing melanogenesis in pigment-cell models.
PPARα and PPARγ regulate fatty-acid oxidation, adipocyte differentiation, glucose handling and inflammatory gene expression. MHY 908 is useful for connecting metabolic nuclear receptor pharmacology with melanogenesis, oxidative stress and dermatology-oriented cell biology.
Key Features
- Dual PPARα/PPARγ agonist profile
- Inhibits mushroom tyrosinase activity (IC50: 8.19 µM)
- More potent PPAR activation reported than fenofibrate and rosiglitazone in comparative assays
- Reduces melanogenesis-related signaling in pigment-cell models
Applications
- PPAR nuclear receptor pharmacology
- Metabolic disease and insulin-sensitization research
- Melanogenesis and pigmentation studies
- Anti-inflammatory and dermatology-relevant pathway assays
