Biological Activity
| ln Vitro | It appears that COR659 works through a combination of mechanisms, including as activation at the cannabinoid CB1 receptor and positive allosteric regulation of the GABAB receptor[3]. |
| ln Vivo | In food-deprived Wistar rats, the COR659 (0, 2.5, 5 and 10 mg/kg) therapy has no effect at all on lever-responding (FR10) for ordinary food pellets[1]. Lever-responding for a chocolate solution in Wistar rats and a sucrose solution in sP rats can be suppressed by COR659[2]. |
| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Male sP and Wistar rats[1]. Doses: 0, 2.5, 5 and 10 mg/kg. Route of Administration: intraperitoneally (ip) (administered 30 min before the start of the self-administration, reinstatement, and locomotor activity sessions.). Experimental Results: The magnitude of the reducing effect of the compound on number of lever-responses for alcohol averaged approximately 30, 55, and 70%, in comparison to the vehicle-treated rat group, in the rat groups treated with 2.5, 5, and 10 mg/kg COR659, respectively. The magnitude of the reducing effect of COR659 on number of lever-responses for alcohol averaged approximately 20, 40, and 80%, in comparison to the vehicle treated rat group, in the rat groups treated with 2.5, 5, and 10 mg/kg COR659, respectively. |

Solubility Data
| Solubility (In Vitro) | DMSO: 25 mg/mL (74.00 mM) |
| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.40 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: 2.5 mg/mL (7.40 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with ultrasonication. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 3: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.40 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
