NOTA-FAPI-4 is an analogue of FAPI-4 and a fibroblast activation protein (FAP) inhibitor. NOTA-FAPI-4 is useful in the diagnosis or treatment of a disease characterized by overexpression of fibroblast activation protein (FAP). NOTA-FAPI-4 can be used as a PET tracer for detection of diseases or disorders related to fibroblast activation protein.
Hexamethonium monotartrate is a non-depolarizing NMJ blocker and nAChR antagonist. It has previously been used to treat hypertension. It inhibits sympathetic nervous system activity and acts as a skeletal muscle relaxant.
Melanotan II acetate is an agonist of melanocortin receptor 1 (MC1R), MC3R, MC4R, and MC5R. It has been shown to improve recovery of sciatic nerve function after mechanical injury and increase cisplatin-induced decreases in sensory nerve conduction velocity. Melanotan II acetate increases oxygen consumption and protein levels of uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) in brown adipose tissue homogenates and decreases food intake, body weight, and serum levels of leptin, glucose, insulin, and cholesterol.
