Beschreibung (Description)

CERC-501 (Aticaprant) is a potent and centrally-penetrant kappa opioid(KOR) receptor antagonist with a Ki of 0.807nM[1]. KOR is an inhibitory G protein coupled receptor that mediates stress, negative affect, and negative reinforcement in addiction-related behaviors[2]. CERC-501 is primarily used for research into depression, substance-use disorders, and reward mechanisms[3][4][5].

In vivo, CERC-501 (10mg/kg; p.o.; 60min) reversed chronic-nicotine-withdrawal-induced hyperalgesia and anxiety-like behavior in male ICR mice[6]. CERC-501 (10mg/kg/day; i.p.; 11 days) reversed unpredictable chronic mild stress-induced anhedonia, restored sucrose preference and increased nest building scores in male C57BL/6J mice[7].

Protokoll (Protocol)

Animal experiment [1]:

Animal models

male ICR mice

Preparation Method

Naïve male 8-10 week-old ICR mice were housed five per cage in a 21°C humidity controlled facility with ad libitum access to food and water. To assess the effects of acute CERC-501 administration on spontaneous withdrawal from nicotine, mice were infused with nicotine or saline for 14 days. On day 14, mice were anesthetized under isoflurane anesthesia and minipumps were removed in the evening. No analgesic was given after mini pump removal, as this would interfere with hyperalgesia testing. Mice were habituated to the gavage procedure for oral drug administration for 3 days prior to mini pump removal. On day 15, 18-24h after mini pump removal, these mice were pretreated orally (p.o.) 60min prior to testing with either vehicle or CERC-501 (10mg/kg; p.o.). Immediately following the 60min pre-treatment, mice were observed for physical and affective nicotine withdrawal signs.

Dosage form

10mg/kg; p.o.; 60min

Applications

CERC-501 reversed chronic-nicotine-withdrawal-induced hyperalgesia and anxiety-like behavior in male ICR mice.
