Small molecule · Modulator of glucocorticoid receptor (NR3C1) and mineralocorticoid receptor (NR3C2) · developed by Corcept Therapeutics
Miricorilant is an orally bioavailable small molecule that acts as a selective glucocorticoid receptor mixed agonist/antagonist and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist. It modulates cortisol-mediated pathways to improve lipid metabolism, reduce liver fat and inflammation, and enhance insulin sensitivity. It is studied in antipsychotic-induced weight gain, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis.
