  • Psilocin was profiled in 11 -point titration curves in duplicate in two independent test occasions including 5-HT as reference compound in each test, following a standardized protocol. Briefly, after seeding and medium removal, 5-HT2A and 5-HT2B-CHO cells were loaded for 30 min and 5-HT2C-CHO cells for Ih at 37°C with 30 pL/well of a loading solution IX (assay buffer containing 5 pM Cal-520 AM), 2.5 mM probenecid and 0.01 % Pluronic F- 127).
  • Psilocin displayed a peculiar pharmacodynamic profile on 5-HT2 receptors, behaving as partial agonist at 5-HT2A and 5-HT2C receptors with pEC50 of 7.95 and 7.38, respectively (Fig. 1), and as an antagonist at 5-HT2B with potency of 7.62 (Fig. 2).
  • Example 2 In Vitro combination treatment of GLP-1 receptor agonist and psilocin [0120] Psilocybin is endogenously metabolized to psilocin. The effects of psilocin in combination with the GLP-1 receptor agonist semaglutide were investigated. Lipid accumulation in the hepatic cell line HepG2 were induced by incubating the cells with a 0.1 mM 1: 1 mixture of palmitic acid (PA) and oleic acid (OA) according to literature methods 15 . Subsequently, the cells were treated with combinations of semaglutide, psilocin, and metformin, and the percent lipid positive area measured.

  • mice treated with the combination of the two drugs show a signficant reduction of the area under the blood glucose- vs-time in the intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test (Fig. 7A and 7C), indicating a dramatic amelioration of insulin resistance.
  • the muscle strength of these mice was evaluated by the grid test. The results of this experiment indicated that only the groups treated with psilocybin or the combination of psilocybin and semaglutide had a significant delay in the decay of their motor performance, which was quickly achieved by the untreated MASLD mice and by those treated only with semaglutide (Fig. 8, see Table 2).
  • Example 4 In Vivo effect of psilocybin on the activation of the hypothalamus, a brain region that regulates feeding and energy expenditure. [0130] It was investigated whether psilocybin (0.05 mg/kg daily, by intraperitoneal injection for 30 days) could affect the activity of the hypothalamus by determining c-Fos activation, which is an indicator of neuronal activity. This helps in understanding which neurons in the hypothalamus are active in response to specific stimuli, such as food intake or satiety signals. Treatment with psilocybin significantly reduced the neuronal activation in the right and left dorsomedial hypothalamus but did not affect the neuronal activation in the right and left ventromedial hypothalamus (Fig. 14).
  • Fig. 1 1 A tendency for a reduction of neuronal activation by psilocybin in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus was observed (Fig. 1 1 ).
  • the dorsomedial hypothalamus plays a crucial role in regulating metabolism and feeding behavior, impacting on hunger and satiety signals. Indeed, activation of the dorsomedial hypothalamus can influence energy expenditure, food intake, and body weight by modulating the autonomic nervous system and interacting with other hypothalamic nuclei.
  • patients can be administered psilocybin in combination with metformin, a PPARy-agonist, a sulfonylurea-based compound, a DPP-IV inhibitor, acarbose, or pramlintide or one or more amino acids, one or more vitamins, or one or more hormones.
