CTOP TFA
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
CTOP TFA is a potent and highly selective μ-opioid receptor antagonist. CTOP TFA antagonizes the acute analgesic effect and hypermotility. CTOP TFA enhances extracellular dopamine levels in the nucleus accumbens. CTOP TFA dose-dependently enhances locomotor activity.

Biological Activity
|
μ Opioid Receptor/MOR |
CTOP TFA (0-2 nmol, ICV, once) causes withdrawal hypothermia and a loss of body weight in animals[1].
CTOP TFA (0-1.5 nmol per side, Intra-VTA injection) enhances extracellular dopamine levels in the nucleus accumbens and dose-dependently enhances locomotor activity[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
-
Animal Model:Male CFLP mice (25-30 g)[1]
-
Dosage:0, 0.001, 0.05, 0.075, 0.1, and 0.5 nmol (made up in artificial cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and kept in plastic tubes at -25℃ until use)
-
Administration:Intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) administration, once
-
Result:Antagonized the analgesic effect in a dose-dependent manner, antagonized the induced hypermotility in a dose-dependent manner.
-
Animal Model:Male CFLP mice (25-30 g, Acute dependence to morphine was induced by a single dependence-inducing (100 mg/kg) dose of morphine-HC1)[1]
-
Dosage:0, 0.001, 0.05, 0.2, and 2 nmol
-
Administration:Intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) administration, once
-
Result:Decreased the body temperature in a dose-dependent manner, and caused withdrawal hypothermia and a loss of body weight in animals.
-
Animal Model:Long-Evans hooded rats (12, male, 350-450 g)[2]
-
Dosage:0, 0.015, 0.15, and 1.5 nmol per side
-
Administration:Intra-VTA (ventral tegmental area) injection
