| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
AM251 is a cannabinoid 1 (CB1) receptor 1 antagonist. It binds to CB1 receptors in rat forebrain membrane preparations (Ki = 7.5 nM) and is selective over CB2 receptors in mouse spleen preparations (Ki = 2,290 nM) in radioligand binding assays. AM251 inhibits GTPγS binding induced by the CB receptor agonist CP 55,940 in HEK293 cells expressing human CB1 receptors (EC50 = 8 nM). AM251 (10 mg/kg) decreases immobility time in the forced swim test in wild-type but not CB1 receptor-deficient mice. It reduces fasting-induced food intake and body weight gain in mice when administered at a dose of 30 mg/kg. AM251 also induces GTPγS binding in HEK293 cells expressing the orphan receptor GPR55 (EC50 = 39 nM) and potentiates GABA-induced GABAA receptor currents (EC50 = 0.4 μM). It prevents TGF-β1-induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), inhibits SMAD2/3 and p38 MAPK activation, and reduces the expression of EMT-related transcription factors in HK-2 renal tubule epithelial cells. AM251 induces cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase and apoptosis in A375 human melanoma cells. | [Chemical Properties]
White to Off-White Solid | [Uses]
Inhibitor of CB1 receptors. AM 251is a biarylpyrazole compound which has been considered for many years as the prototypical cannabinoid (CB) receptor antagonist | [Definition]
ChEBI: AM-251 is a carbohydrazide obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of 1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-5-(4-iodophenyl)-4-methyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid with the amino group of 1-aminopiperidine. An antagonist at the CB1 cannabinoid receptor. It has a role as a CB1 receptor antagonist, an apoptosis inducer, an antidepressant and an antineoplastic agent. It is a member of pyrazoles, a dichlorobenzene, an organoiodine compound, an amidopiperidine and a carbohydrazide. | [Biological Activity]
Potent CB 1 receptor antagonist (IC 50 = 8 nM, K i = 7.49 nM) that displays 306-fold selectivity over CB 2 receptors. Also potent GPR55 agonist (EC 50 = 39 nM). Also available as part of the Cannabinoid CB 1 Receptor Tocriset™ . | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
AM251 is a CB1 cannabinoid receptor antagonist. | [Enzyme inhibitor]
This CB1 inverse agonist (FW = 555.24 g/mol; CAS 183232-66-8;
Solubility: 100 mM in DMSO; Fluorescent Derivative: Tocrifluor T1117),
also named 1- (2,4-dichlorophenyl) -5- (4-iodophenyl) -4-methyl-N- (1-
piperidyl) pyrazole-3-carboxamide, binds to the cannabinoid-1 receptor,
potently blocking (Ki = 7.5 nM; IC50 = 8 nM) the action of
endocannabinoids (See Anandamide). AM251 potentiates the forskolin-
stimulated accumulation of cAMP, and it reduces the basal levels of
inositol phosphate production in cells expressing the CB2 receptors. Such
findings demonstrate that AM251 acts as inverse agonists at the human
CB2 receptor acting via pathways coupled to members of the Ga family of
GPCRs. | [storage]
