Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Ulotaront, also known as SEP-363856, and SEP-856, is a TAAR1/5-HT1A agonist. Ulotaront interacts with a small, common set of conserved residues within the TAAR1 and 5HT1A ligand-binding domain. Ulotaront is a compound of high solubility, high permeability, and low binding to plasma proteins. Ulotaront metabolism is mediated via both NADPH-dependent and NADPH-independent pathways, with CYP2D6 as the major metabolizing enzyme. Ulotaront is a promising agent for the treatment of schizophrenia with an apparent benign safety profile, which might provide a much-needed new and different treatment option for various domains of schizophrenia.

Product Data
Biological target:
Ulotaront HCl is a CNS active psychotropic agent with a unique, non-D2/5-HT2A mechanism of action and exerts antipsychotic-like effects.
In vitro activity:
This study compared ulotaront and ralmitaront at TAAR1, 5-HT1AR, and dopamine D2 using luciferase complementation-based G protein recruitment, cAMP accumulation, and G protein-coupled inward rectifier potassium channel activation assays. Compared to ralmitaront, ulotaront showed higher efficacy and faster kinetics at TAAR1 and had better efficacy at 5-HT1AR. Reference: Int J Neuropsychopharmacol. 2023 Sep 25;26(9):599-606. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37549917/
In vivo activity:
Ulotaront may have under-studied effects on sleep quality. Both 25 mg and 50 mg doses of ulotaront acutely reduced nighttime REM sleep compared to placebo. Ulotaront at both doses also decreased the mean number of short-onset REM periods during the daytime multiple sleep latency test. Ulotaront did influence REM sleep, but it did not show a significant improvement in symptoms, such as cataplexy events or sleepiness when compared to a placebo.
