| Description | SSR411298 is a reversible, orally active compound that selectively inhibits fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH). Its potential lies in the field of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) research. |
| In vitro | SSR411298 (0.1, 1, 10, 100, 1000, 10000 nM) inhibits mouse brain FAAH in a concentration-dependent manner[1]. SSR411298 produces maximal inhibition of FAAH between 0.3 and 30 mg/kg in the ex-vivo experiment[1]. |
| In vivo | SSR411298 (0.3, 1, 3 mg/kg; p.o.; twice a day during 2 days; 60 minutes before pretest, immediately after, and 60 minutes before the second session of testing) produces robust antidepressant-like activity in the rat forced-swimming test and in the mouse chronic mild stress model, restoring notably the development of inadequate coping responses to chronic stress in male Wistar rats weighing 235-290 g[1]. SSR411298 (0.3, 1, 3, 10 mg/kg; po; single dose; two hours prior to sacrifice) produces a significant global increase of tissular AEA, PEA and OEA levels in the hippocampus, but not of 2-AG levels[1]. |
