AT-121 is a dual μ-opioid and neuropeptide receptor partial agonist (Kis 16.49 and 3.67 nM, respectively). It stimulates [35S]GTPγS binding to cell membranes expressing either μ-opioid receptors or neuropeptide receptors (EC50s of 19.6 and 34.7 nM, respectively.) AT-121 (0.003-0.03 mg/kg) reduced capsaicin-induced thermal anisocoria in a dose-dependent manner, but did not increase scratching activity in rhesus monkeys. In rhesus monkey drug self-administration tests, AT-121 at doses of 0.3 to 10 μg/kg per injection lacked reinforcing effects (a potential marker of abuse) and did not reduce the reinforcing effects of food pellets.AT-121 (0.01 or 0.03 mg/kg) did not induce hyperalgesia, a marker of tolerance, in rhesus monkeys.AT-121 is a safe non-addictive pain reliever with anti-injury and analgesic effects.

COR659 is a GABAB positive allosteric modulator (PAM) . COR659 suppresses alcohol and chocolate self-administration in rats[1]. COR659 apparently exerts its effects via a composite mechanism, including positive allosteric modulation of the GABAB receptor and an action at the cannabinoid CB1 receptor[3]. COR659 (0, 2.5, 5 and 10 mg/kg) treatment is completely ineffective on lever-responding (FR10) for regular food pellets in food-deprived Wistar rats[1].COR659 is able to suppress lever-responding for a sucrose solution in sP rats and a chocolate solution in Wistar rats[2].

Pal-KTTKS is a lipidated pentapeptide consisting of a fragment of the type I collagen C-terminal propeptide conjugated to palmitic acid .1 It increases collagen production in human corneal and dermal fibroblasts when used at concentrations of 0.002, 0.004, and 0.008 wt%.2 Following topical administration, pal-KTTKS (50 μg/cm2) is found in the stratum corneum, epidermis, and dermis of isolated hairless mouse skin.1 It can self-assemble into flat tapes and extended fibrillar structures.3 Pal-KTTKS has been detected in anti-wrinkle creams.4 |1.

AZD-8418 is an mGlu2 receptor positive allosteric modulators that attenuates nicotine-taking and nicotine-seeking behavior. Acute treatment with AZD8418 (0.37, 1.12, 3.73, 7.46, and 14.92 mg/kg) and AZD8529 (1.75, 5.83, 17.5, and 58.3 mg/kg) deceased nicotine self-administration and had no effect on food-maintained responding. Chronic treatment with AZD8418 attenuated nicotine self-administration, but tolerance to this effect developed quickly. The inhibition of nicotine self-administration by chronic AZD8529 administration persisted throughout the 14 days of treatment. Chronic treatment with either PAMs inhibited food self-administration. AZD8418 (acute) and AZD8529 (acute and subchronic) blocked cue-induced reinstatement of nicotine- and food-seeking behavior.

Dopamine D3 receptor agonist 13a selectively targets the dopamine D3 receptor over dopamine D1, D2, and D4 receptors, with affinities (Ki values) of 0.14, 4,600, 2.85, and 756 nM, respectively. It also interacts with serotonin (5-HT) receptor subtypes 5-HT1A, 5-HT2A, 5-HT2B, and 5-HT2C, with Ki values of 6, 54, 1.47, and 252 nM, respectively. While acting as a partial agonist at dopamine D2 receptors (EC50 = 2.26 nM in a G protein recruitment assay), it serves as an antagonist at dopamine D3 receptors (IC50 = 4.62 nM). Additionally, Dopamine D3 receptor agonist 13a, at a dose of 3 mg/kg, has been shown to reduce cocaine self-administration in rats.
