Product Description
GAT211 is a cannabinoid 1 receptor (CB1R) positive allosteric modulator (PAM) with a pKb of 7.26. The EC50 of GAT211 for cAMP and β-arrestin2 are 260 nM and 650 nM respectively. GAT211 may be utilized in study/research of neuropathic and/or inflammatory pain.
GAT211 is a selective cannabinoid 1 receptor (CB1R) positive allosteric modulator (PAM). It is a racemic mixture of GAT228 and GAT229, which have enantiomer-specific activities. GAT211 has a pKb of 7.26 and an Arrestin2 EC50 of 775 nM. It is valuable for studying CB1-mediated neurological processes, including pain modulation, appetite control, and neuroprotection. Its unique mechanism makes it a promising tool in cannabinoid research and the development of targeted therapies with fewer psychoactive side effects. GAT211 amplifies the therapeutic effect of endocannabinoids without the negative side effects of psychoactivity or tolerance. It can be used for neuropathic and/or inflammatory pain research. By positively modulating CB1R, GAT211 enhances the activity of endogenous cannabinoids (endocannabinoids) at the receptor, leading to increased downstream signaling. This approach may offer therapeutic benefits in pain, inflammation, and neurological disorders while avoiding the psychoactive effects associated with direct CB1R agonists.

ln Vivo
GAT211 (0.3 mg/kg, 1 mg/kg, 3 mg/kg; 5 ml/kg; intraperitoneally; 2 doses 5 minutes apart) dose-like reductions in auditory startle reactions and locomotor activity. GAT211 was administered with a volume of 5 mL/kg after being dissolved in ethanol, kolliphor, and saline at a ratio of 1:1:6[3].
In vivo efficacy of GAT211 has been demonstrated in animal models of neuropathic and inflammatory pain. As a CB1R PAM, GAT211 enhances the effects of endocannabinoids, leading to pain relief without producing tolerance or dependence. The compound's unique mechanism allows for the amplification of endocannabinoid signaling with fewer psychoactive side effects compared to direct CB1R agonists. Specific dosing regimens and detailed efficacy data are available in the primary literature.
Enzyme Assay
CB1R positive allosteric modulation is assessed using in vitro cell-based assays. Cells expressing CB1R are treated with a CB1R agonist (e.g., CP55,940) in the presence or absence of GAT211 at various concentrations (typically 0.001-100 µM). Receptor signaling is measured by assessing downstream pathways such as cAMP inhibition (Gαi signaling) or β-arrestin recruitment. The pKb value is calculated from the potentiation of the agonist response. Arrestin2 EC50 is determined from β-arrestin recruitment assays.
Cell Assay
Cellular activity is evaluated in cells expressing CB1R. Cells are treated with GAT211 at various concentrations (typically 0.001-100 µM) and CB1R agonist-induced signaling is measured. Gαi-mediated inhibition of cAMP accumulation is measured by ELISA or HTRF-based assays. β-arrestin recruitment is measured using PathHunter or Tango assays. The potentiation of agonist-induced signaling by GAT211 is assessed to determine its PAM activity. Selectivity is evaluated by testing against other cannabinoid receptors (CB2R) and other GPCRs.
Animal Protocol
In vivo efficacy is studied in animal models of neuropathic and inflammatory pain. GAT211 is administered via various routes (oral, intraperitoneal, subcutaneous) at doses determined from pharmacokinetic and tolerability studies. Pain responses are assessed using behavioral tests such as von Frey filaments (mechanical allodynia), hot plate (thermal hyperalgesia), and formalin-induced paw licking. Tolerance development is assessed by repeated dosing. Locomotor activity and other behavioral parameters are monitored to assess potential psychoactive effects.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
GAT211 has a molecular formula of C22H18N2O2 and a molecular weight of 342.39 g/mol. CAS Number: 102704-40-5. Appearance: Solid. Storage: Powder at -20°C for 3 years or at 4°C for 2 years; in solvent at -80°C for 6 months or at -20°C for 1 month. The compound is a racemic mixture of GAT228 and GAT229. It is soluble in DMSO.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Safety data for GAT211 indicate it is a research compound for laboratory use only. As a CB1R PAM, it may have central nervous system effects. However, its allosteric mechanism is designed to minimize the psychoactive side effects associated with direct CB1R agonists. Specific toxicological profiles including acute toxicity, organ toxicity, genotoxicity, and reproductive toxicity are not extensively published. Standard laboratory safety practices should be followed during handling, including the use of personal protective equipment and adequate ventilation.

Additional Infomation
GAT211 is a research tool compound for studying CB1R biology and cannabinoid signaling. It is not approved for clinical use. The compound is a positive allosteric modulator (PAM) of CB1R, which enhances the activity of endogenous cannabinoids at the receptor. This unique mechanism makes GAT211 a valuable tool for investigating the therapeutic potential of CB1R modulation in pain, inflammation, and neurological disorders while avoiding the psychoactive effects and tolerance associated with direct CB1R agonists. GAT211 has been shown to suppress pathological pain without producing tolerance or dependence.
