Apexbio Technology LLC Ramelteon(Synonyms: Rozerem, TAK-375, Ramelteon, Melatonin receptor agonist, MT1/MT2 agonist), 5mg, CAS: 196597-26-9.
Ramelteon (CAS 196597-26-9) is a potent orally active agonist selective for MT1 and MT2 melatonin receptors Structurally characterized by its S-enantiomer and ether functional group ramelteon exhibits high binding affinity toward MT1 and MT2 receptors with reported Ki values of 14 pM and 112 pM respectively whereas affinity for the MT3 receptor is considerably lower (Ki 2650 nM) By activating MT1 and MT2 receptors ramelteon suppresses cAMP production in human cells expressing these receptors with IC50 values of 21 2 pM/L (MT1) and 53 4 pM/L (MT2) Given its receptor selectivity and minimal side-effect profile ramelteon is frequently utilized in research investigating circadian rhythms and sleep disorders
