SR9009

What Is SR9009 ?

SR9009 is a compound that enhances REV-ERB activity (known as agonists) and has good bioavailability .

Because of the many positive effects seen in animals, SR9009 found its way online and is being sold and used as a supplement, mainly within the bodybuilding community. It has been referred to as "exercise in a bottle." However, there are still a lot of things we don't know about this drug, including its side effects.

SR9009 Potential Benefits

1) Weight Loss

Mice injected with SR9009 for 7 days lost weight due to a decrease in fat mass. Food intake was not affected .


Similarly, diet-induced obese mice injected with SR9009 for 30 days lost 60% more weight than control animals. Blood levels of triglycerides, total cholesterol, free fatty acids, and insulin levels also decreased .

In genetically obese mice, SR9009 stopped weight gain after 12 days without affecting glucose levels or insulin tolerance .

2) Blood Cholesterol

SR9009 given for 7 to 10 days reduced blood levels of triglycerides and total cholesterol in mice .

Genetically modified mice undergoing a high cholesterol diet to obtain a fat profile similar to humans were given SR9009 for 8 weeks. Total cholesterol and triglycerides were similarly lowered, while LDL cholesterol was lowered but HDL cholesterol was unaffected .

3) Endurance

Mice treated with SR9009 for 30 days showed increased endurance. They ran for a longer time and covered more distance than controls .

SR9009 increased the number of total and active mitochondria in muscle cells (by repressing autophagy genes) .

4) Decreasing Inflammation

SR9009 diminished lung inflammation in rats (by reducing the production of TNF-alpha) .

It also reduced the production of inflammatory molecules (CCL2, MMP-9) in rat nerve cells .

5) Heart Disease

Genetically modified mice susceptible to hardening of the arteries were treated with SR9009 for 7 weeks. The size of the blood vessel lesions was reduced, while food intake, body weight, and blood fat levels were not affected .

In both normal and genetically modified old mice, SR9009 injected for 28 days improved heart function .


In mice with surgically induced heart growth (hypertrophy), SR9009 given for 2 weeks reduced heart size and weight, with no effect on blood pressure .

6) Wakefulness

As an activator of REV-ERB, S9009 changes sleep/wake patterns in mice. However, its effects are short-term and last only 12 hours .

Mice injected with SR9009 during daytime (this is when the mice are supposed to be asleep) were more active during the day and had less deep sleep (less REM and slow-wave sleep). However, when SR9009 was injected during the night (when mice are active), it had no effect .

SR9009 may potentially help in maintaining wakefulness when the drive for sleep is significant including shift work, jet lag, and some sleep-related disorders.

7) Anxiety

SR9009 injected twice a day for 3 to 10 days, decreased anxiety-like behavior in mice and was as effective as a benzodiazepine .

8) Tissue Damage (Fibrosis)

SR9009 decreased tissue damage in mice with induced liver scarring when treated with SR9009 for 2 weeks .
