Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.

Mechanism of Action

In vitro

Mavacamten (MYK-461) primarily reduces the steady-state ATPase activity by inhibiting the rate of phosphate release of β-cardiac myosin-S1. This compound modulates multiple steps of the myosin chemomechanical cycle. In addition to decreasing the rate-limiting step of the cycle (phosphate release), it reduces the number of myosin-S1 heads that can interact with the actin thin filament during transition from the weakly to the strongly bound state without affecting the intrinsic rate. It also decreases the rate of myosin binding to actin in the ADP-bound state and the ADP-release rate from myosin-S1 alone.

In vivo

In mice harboring heterozygous human mutations in the myosin heavy chain, early, chronic administration of Mavacamten (MYK-461) suppresses the development of ventricular hypertrophy, cardiomyocyte disarray, and myocardial fibrosis and attenuates hypertrophic and profibrotic gene expression.
