Biological Activity
AGN-201781 (compound 11) acts as a potent α-2B-preferring adrenergic agonist with no detectable activity at α-2A receptors, weak activity at α-2C receptors, minimal activity at α-1A receptors, and no activity at α-1B or α-1D receptors[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
AGN-201781 (1 mg/kg; i.p.; single dose; 0.5 mg/kg; i.v.; single dose; 3 mg/kg; p.o.; single dose) does not produce significant sedative or cardiovascular side effects at doses higher than those required for peak neuropathic pain relief in rats[1].

Animal Model:Sprague-Dawley (male, 100-120 grams for acute dosing; neuropathic pain Chung model via partial ligation of left spinal nerves L-5 and L-6)[1]
-
Dosage:30-1000 μg/kg (acute oral); 0.1 mg/kg/hour (extended subcutaneous)
-
Administration:p.o.; single dose (acute); subcutaneous osmotic minipump; continuous; 5 days (extended)
-
Result:Produced no significant allodynia reversal at 30 μg/kg.
Produced 60-90% peak allodynia reversal at 100 μg/kg and 300 μg/kg, with effects diminishing by 140 minutes post-dose.
Produced lower peak allodynia reversal at 1000 μg/kg, with effects diminishing over time.
Achieved ~80% allodynia reversal during 5-day continuous dosing, with analgesic effect maintained at the same level for 30 days post-dosing.
