GAT-211 (GAT211) is a selective cannabinoid 1 receptor (CB1R) positive allosteric modulator with pKb of 7.26, Arrestin2 EC50 of 775 nM.
GAT-211 engages CB1R allosteric site(s), enhances the binding of the orthosteric full agonist [3H]CP55,490, and reduces the binding of the orthosteric antagonist/inverse agonist [3H]SR141716A.
GAT-211 displayed both PAM and agonist activity in HEK293A and Neuro2a cells expressing human recombinant CB1R (hCB1R) and in mouse-brain membranes rich in native CB1R.
