AA92593 is a selective and competitive OPN4 (melanopsin) antagonist^[1][2].

AA92593 is a competitive melanopsin antagonist, its presence in the retinal-binding pocket of melanopsin leads to the displacement of retinal, which could trigger a downstream signaling that would ultimately result in Per1 increased expression^[1].
AA92593 is shown to be specific because it competes with retinaldehyde for the melanopsin retinal binding site which is very distinct from other opsins^[1].
Inhibition of melanopsin activity with AA92593 increases a-MSH expression and induces melanin dispersion in the melanophores, which darkens the embryo^[3].
AA92593 exhibits an IC₅₀ of 665 nM in CHO^Opn4 cells^[4].

AA92593 is able to decrease IOP in rabbits living under normal light condition^[2].
AA92593 produces an increment in melatonin levels resulting in a drop of IOP^[2].
