ML-290 is the first potent, selective, and metabolically stable small-molecule biased allosteric agonist of the relaxin receptor RXFP1, with an EC50 value of 94nM[1,2]. ML-290 is metabolically stable and commonly used in research on fibrosis and inflammation-related diseases, such as chronic kidney disease and liver fibrosis[2,3].
In vitro, treatment of human cardiac fibroblasts (HCF) with ML-290 (1μM) for 72h promoted MMP-2 expression and inhibited TGF-β1-induced phosphorylation of Smad2 and Smad3[1]. In human hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), ML-290 (5μM) treatment for 72h reduced COL1A1 gene expression while increasing the expression of MMP1 and PPARGC1A[4]. In LX-2 cells, a 24h treatment with ML-290 (100μM) downregulated RXFP1 mRNA expression by 9.8 ± 6.4-fold[5]. In HEK293T cells transiently transfected with two rabbit RXFP1 receptor variants (R1-RXFP1 and R2-RXFP2), ML-290 (5μM) treatment for 60min effectively stimulated cAMP production, though with lower potency compared to its effect on human RXFP1[6].
In vivo, a single intraperitoneal injection of ML-290 (37mg/kg) concurrently with CCl4 in humanized hRXFP1/hRXFP1 mice significantly suppressed the upregulation of pro-fibrotic genes (Acta2, Col1a1, and Tgfb1) in the liver at 20h post-treatment[4]. Intravenous administration of ML-290 (100μg/25 g body weight) in humanized hRXFP1/hRXFP1 female mice significantly increased heart rate within 26-40min after injection[7]. In a unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) model, intraperitoneal injection of ML-290 (30mg/kg; once daily) for 5 days in humanized hRXFP1/hRXFP1 mice significantly reduced renal apoptosis and inhibited Erk1/2 activity[8].

| Cell experiment [1]: | |
|
Cell lines |
HCFs (fibrosis in human cardiac fibroblasts) |
|
Preparation Method |
HCFs were treated with ML-290 (1μM) for 72h and analysed for MMP-2 expression. The optical density (OD) of MMP-2 was measured using a GS710 Calibrated Imaging Densitomer. HCFs were plated into 24-well plates (0.7 × 105 cells/well) and grown overnight to achieve a confluent monolayer. Cells were treated with ML-290 (1μM) in combination with TGF-β1 (2ng/ml final concentration) for 72h. Cells were serum-starved in M199 medium for 24h prior sample collection. Levels of p-Smad2 and p-Smad3 were detected using Sure-fire kits. |
|
Reaction Conditions |
1μM; 72h |
|
Applications |
ML-290 (1μM) increased MMP-2 expression in HCFs by 40%. Cells treated with TGF-β1 (2ng/ml) showed a 2.21 ± 0.17-fold increase in p-Smad2 and 1.41 ± 0.07-fold increase in p-Smad3. 1μM ML-290 (p-Smad2: 1.58 ± 0.34-fold/basal, p < 0.05; p-Smad3: 1.15 ± 0.05-fold/basal, p < 0.01) significantly inhibited the TGF-β1-induced increase in p-Smad2 and p-Smad3 in HCFs. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
|
Animal models |
C57BL/6 (humanized hRXFP1/hRXFP1 female mice) |
|
Preparation Method |
Heart rate (HR) was measured by tail cuff using a Non-Invasive Blood Pressure System. Basal measurements were recorded each minute for the first 10min. ML-290 (100μg/25g body weight) was administered via intravenous injection in the tail vein after which HR was recorded for 40min. |
|
Dosage form |
100μg/25g body weight; i.v. |
|
Applications |
IV injection of ML-290 (100μg/25g body weight) increased HR in unconscious hRXFP1 females but not wild-type (Wt) females. |
