CO23 is a selective thyroid hormone receptor (TR) α agonist and used for growth and development regulation. CO23 was able to be transported through the blood-brain barrier[1].

TRα[1]

CO23 (ip; 0.04-5.0 nmol/g) has ≈50% cholesterol reduction with 0.8 nmol/g dose and higher doses are equally effective. CO23 has no effect at the lowest dose of 0.04 nmol/g and increases Dio1 mRNA 5-, 10-, and 15-fold at the doses of 0.8, 2.5, and 5 nmol/g, respectively[1]. Animal Model: Hypothyroid Wistar rats[1] Dosage: 0.04, 0.8, 2.5, and 5.0 nmol/g Administration: Ip Result: Had ≈50% cholesterol reduction with 0.8 nmol/g dose and higher doses were equally effective.
