CTAP is a potent, highly selective, and BBB penetrant μ opioid receptor antagonist, with an IC50 of 3.5 nM. CTAP displays over 1200-fold selectivity over δ opioid (IC50=4500 nM) and somatostatin receptors. CTAP can be used for the study of L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia (LID) and opiate overdose or addiction.

Description

CTAP is a potent, highly selective, and BBB penetrant μ opioid receptor antagonist, with an IC50 of 3.5 nM. CTAP displays over 1200-fold selectivity over δ opioid (IC50=4500 nM) and somatostatin receptors. CTAP can be used for the study of L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia (LID) and opiate overdose or addiction[1][2].

IC50 & Target

μ Opioid Receptor/MOR

3.5 nM (IC50)

δ Opioid Receptor/DOR

4500 nM (IC50)

In Vivo

CTAP (0-1 mg/kg, IP, single) blocks morphine’s antinociceptive effect[1].
CTAP (10 mg/kg; IP, single) has no effect on L-DOPA-induced limb, axial, orolingual, or locomotor abnormal involuntary movements[1].
CTAP is stable in the blood and serum of rats (T1/2 > 500 min), showing that the structure of this peptide offers enzymatic resistance[2].
CTAP is extensively protein-bound to albumin in the perfusion medium (68.2%) and to proteins in rat serum (84.2%)[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
