Biological Activity
EC50: 116 nM (GPR88 receptor, HEK293 cells)[1]
2-PCCA inhibits GPR88-mediated cAMP production through a Gαi-coupled pathway, with an EC50 of 116 nM in HEK293 cells stably expressing the human GPR88 receptor and the GloSensor-22F cAMP construct[2].

Protocol
Rats[1]
For the locomotor activity tests, rats are only used once. The test is conducted in an adjacent room from the animal colony room with similar environmental conditions (light, temperature and humidity). Before tests begin, rats are exposed to at least three days of handling by the experimenter. When only 2-PCCA (1.0 and 3.2 mg/kg) is studied, the drug is (i.p.) injected immediately before the rats are put into the test chambers and the locomotor activity is simultaneously recorded for 60 min. When 2-PCCA is studied in combination with methamphetamine, the locomotor activity is recorded for 20 min and then both drugs are simultaneously injected and the locomotor activity is recorded for 120 more min[1].
