在自由进食大鼠中，腹腔注射RO27-3225（0.01-1 mg/kg）剂量依赖性减少摄食量（1 mg/kg时4小时内减少90%），且不诱导条件性味觉厌恶。该效应在MC4R基因敲除小鼠中消失。 [1]
在大鼠失血性休克模型中，静脉注射RO27-3225（90 μg/kg）使平均动脉压（MAP）在15分钟内从30±5 mmHg恢复至85±10 mmHg，改善器官灌注，并使血浆TNF-α和IL-6水平降低>50%。 [2]
在大脑中动脉闭塞（MCAO）小鼠中，每日腹腔注射RO27-3225（0.5 mg/kg，持续14天）使神经发生增加2.5倍（BrdU⁺/DCX⁺细胞），增强PDGFRβ⁺周细胞募集，并减少小胶质细胞活化（Iba1⁺细胞降低40%）。 [3]

Food intake study: Rats/mice received RO27-3225 (0.01, 0.1, 1 mg/kg) or vehicle via intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection. Food consumption was measured 1-4h post-dosing. Taste aversion assessed by sucrose preference after drug pairing. [1]
Hemorrhagic shock model: Rats subjected to 45% blood loss received RO27-3225 (90 μg/kg) or vehicle intravenously at 60 min post-shock. Hemodynamics monitored for 6h; organs harvested for histology/cytokine analysis. [2]
Stroke recovery model: MCAO mice treated with RO27-3225 (0.5 mg/kg i.p. daily for 14 days) starting 24h post-surgery. Brains analyzed by immunohistochemistry and ELISA at day 15. [3]

RO27-3225 (1 mg/kg intraperitoneal injection) did not induce conditioned taste aversion, nor did it impair motor coordination in the rotarod test. [1]
In rats with hemorrhagic shock, no acute toxicity was observed at 90 μg/kg intravenous injection. [2]
In MCAO mice, no behavioral abnormalities or deaths were reported after 14 days of intraperitoneal treatment at 0.5 mg/kg. [3]

Background and Objectives: Melanocortin plays a life-saving role in circulatory shock, possibly mediated by the MC4 receptor. To directly understand the role of the melanocortin MC4 receptor in hemorrhagic shock, we investigated the effects of two novel selective MC4 receptor agonists. Methods: Severe hemorrhagic shock was induced in rats under general anesthesia. Rats were then treated with either the non-selective agonist [Nle4, D-Phe7]-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (NDP-MSH) or the selective MC4 agonists RO27-3225 and PG-931. Cardiovascular and respiratory function were continuously monitored for 2 hours; 24-hour survival was recorded. Free radicals in the blood were measured using electron spin resonance spectroscopy; histological evaluation was performed at 25 minutes or 24 hours post-treatment. Main Results: All rats receiving saline treatment died within 30–35 minutes. NDP-MSH, RO27-3225 and PG-931 treatments can restore cardiovascular and respiratory function and improve survival in a dose-dependent manner (13-108 nmol kg-1 intravenous injection). These three melanocortin agonists also significantly reduced circulating free radical levels compared with saline-treated shock rats. Intraperitoneal injection of the selective MC4 receptor antagonist HS024 blocked all of these effects. In addition, RO27-3225 treatment prevented morphological and immunocytochemical changes in the heart, lungs, liver and kidneys in the early (25 min) and late (24 h) stages. Conclusion and significance: Stimulation of MC4 receptors can reverse hemorrhagic shock, reduce multi-organ damage and improve survival. Our results suggest that selective MC4 receptor agonists may have a protective effect against multi-organ failure following circulatory shock. [2] Cerebral infarction has a high incidence and high mortality rate, which imposes a serious social and economic burden on patients, and the existing treatment methods are limited. RO27-3225 is a highly selective melanocortin receptor 4 agonist that can alleviate damage from various neurological diseases, such as cerebral hemorrhage, traumatic brain injury, and chronic neurodegenerative diseases. However, the effect of RO27-3225 on cerebral infarction remains unclear. In this study, we used a mouse model of transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) and administered RO27-3225 or saline via intraperitoneal injection. RO27-3225 increased the number of Nestin+/BrdU+ cells and dicortin (DCX)+/BrdU+ cells in the subventricular zone (SVZ) and increased the number of DCX+/BrdU+ cells in the periinfarct area on day 7 after tMCAO. In addition, RO27-3225 reduced the number of activated microglia (Iba1+ cells with a specific morphology) and the expression levels of Iba1, TNFα, IL6 and iNOS proteins, and increased the number of PDGFRβ+ cells in the peri-infarct area on day 3 after tMCAO. Finally, mice treated with RO27-3225 showed a significant reduction in infarct volume, brain water content and neurological deficits after cerebral infarction. Therefore, RO27-3225 can partially improve the prognosis after cerebral infarction by modulating neurogenesis in the subventricular zone (SVZ), PDGFRβ+ cell survival and neuroinflammation in the peri-infarct area. Our study suggests that RO27-3225 is a potential new therapy for cerebral infarction. [3]
