Description:

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

RO-5166017 is a potent and selective agonist for the trace amine-associated receptor 1, with no significant activity at other targets. This is important for the study of the TAAR1 receptor, as while numerous other compounds are known which act as TAAR1 agonists, such as methamphetamine, MDMA and 3-iodothyronamine, all previously known TAAR1 agonists are either weak and rapidly metabolized (endogenous ligands), or have strong pharmacological activity at other targets (amphetamines, thyronamines), making it very difficult to assess which effects are due to TAAR1 activation.

More Info
Biological target:
RO5166017 binds to TAAR1 (Kis = 31, 24, 1.9, and 2.7 nM in HEK293 cells expressing the recombinant human, cynomolgus monkey, mouse, or rat receptor, respectively). RO5166017 induces cAMP production in HEK293 cells expressing the recombinant human, cynomolgus monkey, mouse, or rat TAAR1 (EC50s = 55, 97, 3.3, and 14 nM, respectively). RO5166017 reduces the frequency of neuronal firing in mouse ventral tegmental area and dorsal raphe nucleus slices (IC50s = 1.73 and 2.99 nM, respectively). RO5166017 (0.3 mg/kg) inhibits stress-induced hyperthermia and reduces cocaine-induced hyperlocomotion in mice.
In vitro activity:
To be determined
In vivo activity:
Microinjection of RO5166017 into the VTA and prelimbic cortex decreased both cue- and drug priming-induced cocaine-seeking. Microinjection of RO5166017 into the NAc core and shell inhibited cue- and drug-induced cocaine-seeking, respectively.
