Likewise, the affinity of M-II for MT2 receptors is approximately 5- and 1.5-fold lower than that of ramelteon and melatonin, respectively. Ramelteon metabolite M-II exhibits no affinity for quinone reductase 2 at concentrations up to 10 μM. Moreover, the selectivity of Ramelteon metabolite M-II for melatonin receptors relative to 215 targets including other receptors, transporters, ion channels and enzymes is investigated. Ramelteon metabolite M-II shows no significant affinities and activities for the other targets, except for the 5-HT2B receptor, for which the Ki value was 1.75±0.23 μM. The potency of Ramelteon metabolite M-II for MT1 receptors is approximately 17- and 4.3-fold lower than that of ramelteon and melatonin, respectively. Similarly, the potency of Ramelteon metabolite M-II for MT2 receptors is approximately 28- and 1.6-fold lower than that of ramelteon and melatonin, respectively.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn Vivo:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"padding-left:1em;\"\u003eRamelteon metabolite M-II (1 mg\/kg) significantly increases NREM sleep (F1,7=96.3, p\u0026lt;0.01) and significantly decreases wakefulness (F1,7=56.7, p\u0026lt;0.01). Moreover, a lower dose of M-II (0.1 mg\/kg) yield similar results (NREM, F1,7=121.9, p\u0026lt;0.01; wakefulness, F1,7=87.0, p\u0026lt;0.01), and decreased wakefulness is sustained for 6 h after the administration of either dose. After the administration of 0.01 mg\/kg Ramelteon metabolite M-II, only NREM sleep is significantly increased (F1,7=10.5, p\u0026lt; 0.05). No significant differences in REM sleep are observed after the administration of M-II at any of the doses tested in this study.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducts are for research use only.
