| Bioactivity | AC 187 TFA is a potent and orally active amylin receptor antagonist with an IC50 of 0.48 nM and a Ki of 0.275 nM. AC 187 TFA shows more selective for amylin receptor than calcitonin and CGRP receptors. AC 187 TFA has neuroprotective effects[1][2]. | ||||||
| Invitro | AC 187 blocks amyloidβ protein (Aβ)-induced neurotoxicity. Treatment of cultures with AC 187 before exposure to Aβ results in significantly improved neuronal survival[1].AC187 attenuates the activation of initiator and effector caspases that mediate Aβ-induced apoptotic cell death[1]. | ||||||
