Description

AA92593 is a potent and selective small molecule antagonist of melanopsin-mediated photo-transduction (IC50~160 nM). It inhibits melanopsin (opsinamides) by competing with retinal binding to melanopsin, and inhibits its function without affecting rod- and cone-mediated responses. In vivo administration of AA92593 to mice specifically and reversibly modified melanopsin-dependent light responses, including the pupillary light reflex and light aversion. Melanopsin, expressed in a subset of retinal ganglion cells, mediates behavioral adaptation to ambient light and other non-image-forming photic responses. The discovery of AA92593 raises the prospect of therapeutic control of the melanopsin photo-transduction system to regulate light-dependent behavior and remediate pathological conditions.
