AM-630とは 意味・読み方・使い方

AM-630 (6-Iodopravadoline) is a drug which acts as a potent and selective inverse agonist for the cannabinoid receptor CB2, with a Ki of 32.1nM at CB₂ and 165x selectivity over CB1, at which it acted as a weak partial agonist. It is used in the study of CB₂ mediated responses and has been used to investigate the possible role of CB₂ receptors in the brain. AM-630 is significant as one of the first indole derived cannabinoid ligands substituted on the 6-position of the indole ring, a position which has subsequently been found to be important in determining affinity and efficacy at both the CB₁ and CB₂ receptors, and has led to the development of a large number of related derivatives.
