B7-33 is a single-chain peptide analog of human relaxin-2 engineered to retain relaxin anti-fibrotic activity in a simpler, more synthesizable molecule. It is a preclinical research reagent studied in models of cardiac, lung, and kidney fibrosis, with no human trials and no approved use.
Mechanism under study
A single-chain analog of relaxin-2 that acts as a biased agonist at the RXFP1 receptor, favoring pERK signaling associated with reduced collagen deposition and anti-fibrotic effects in organ-injury models.
Research-reported dosing
No approved or established human dosing; it has been studied only in animal fibrosis and injury models by injection. Reported context only.
Research lyophilate. A 5 mg vial reconstituted with 2 mL bacteriostatic water yields 2,500 mcg/mL (2.5 mg/mL); on a U-100 syringe 1 unit (0.01 mL) is about 25 mcg. Research use only.

Recombinant peptide hormone (relaxin-2)
Serelaxin is recombinant human relaxin-2 (RLX030) studied mainly as a short intravenous infusion in acute heart failure. After early promise, the large RELAX-AHF-2 trial did not meet its primary endpoints, and the compound remains investigational and unapproved. Human data therefore exist but are ultimately negative for its lead indication.
