Definition

RAD-140/YK-11 is a two-compound research blend formulated for laboratory and analytical research applications. The formulation combines RAD-140, a selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) studied for androgen receptor signaling, with YK-11, a steroidal SARM-like compound investigated in research for androgen receptor activity and myostatin-related signaling pathways. The blend is supplied as an aliquot solution in an advanced carrier system. RAD-140/YK-11 is not approved for human or veterinary use and is supplied strictly for laboratory and analytical research purposes.

Available Formats

  • RAD-140: 25 mg/mL
  • YK-11: 25 mg/mL

Mechanism of Action

RAD-140/YK-11 is evaluated as a combined formulation rather than a single active compound. Each component contributes to research-relevant biochemical pathways: As a combined formulation, mechanistic attribution generally requires comparator groups using the individual compounds, as overlapping androgen receptor signaling may obscure additive versus redundant biological effects.

  • RAD-140: Studied as a selective androgen receptor modulator in models evaluating androgen receptor binding, transcriptional signaling, and downstream anabolic- and catabolic-gene expression
  • YK-11: Investigated as a steroidal SARM-like compound with androgen receptor activity, commonly explored in studies involving myogenic signaling, differentiation markers, and myostatin-related pathways alongside androgen receptor-mediated effects

Areas of Investigation

RAD-140/YK-11 is commonly studied in

  • Androgen receptor signaling and transcriptional-activity research
  • Myogenic differentiation and muscle-related gene-expression models
  • Myostatin-related signaling pathways and downstream regulators of muscle growth
  • Body-composition proxy models in controlled nonclinical settings where anabolic and catabolic signaling are manipulated
  • Safety-pharmacology and off-target signaling studies involving androgen-pathway modulation

Safety Profile

Reported observations are model- and protocol-dependent and may include

  • Suppression-like findings in endocrine-axis measurements when systemic androgen signaling is altered
  • Changes in lipid markers and liver-enzyme measurements depending on compound selection, exposure level, and study duration
  • Androgen-pathway-related off-target findings that may vary according to tissue type and receptor distribution
  • Confounded interpretation when combined with additional androgen-pathway modulators or substantial changes in training and dietary variables within applied research models

Interaction Notes

RAD-140/YK-11 is often explored alongside interventions that overlap with its primary mechanistic pathways.
