XCT-790
XCT-790 is a potent and selective inverse agonist ligand of the estrogen-related receptor alpha (ERRα).[1] Independent of its inhibition of ERRα, XCT-790 is a potent mitochondrial electron transport chain uncoupler. [2]

Mitochondrial electron transport chain uncoupling effect
XCT-790 has been shown to uncouple oxygen consumption from ATP production in mitochondria at very low, nanomolar-range doses independently of ERRα expression. Its effects are similar to proton ionophores such as FCCP, which disrupt mitochondrial transmembrane electrochemical gradients. This uncoupling leads to a fast drop in ATP production and, consequently, a prompt activation of AMPK.[2]
gollark: There was that mess where the one they had was faulty somehow, and I think regulations prevented their use on most people also.
gollark: If copies of it stick in your body forever, you'll have immunity forever! Nothing* can** go wrong!
gollark: There are vaccines against it but people don't get those nowadays as far as I know.
gollark: I mean, you could just use smallpox and cause lots of temporary chaos.
gollark: Most useful stuff is quite long though.
