Biological Activity
AM841, a high-affinity electrophilic ligand, covalently interacts with a cysteine residue in helix six, thus activating the CB1 cannabinoid receptor. It diminishes forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation and slows gastrointestinal motility (1) (2).
Target(s): Cannabinoid Receptor
Signaling pathway(s): GPCR/G Protein
Safety & Regulatory
For Research Use Only (RUO). Not for therapeutic, diagnostic, or clinical use. Wear appropriate PPE and consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) prior to handling.
Yes — TargetMol inhibitors can be used in cell-based and in vitro experiments. Prepare a DMSO stock, then dilute into cell culture medium to the desired working concentration, keeping DMSO ≤ 0.1% (v/v) to avoid solvent toxicity. Note that not all compounds have published data for every cell line or assay system; in such cases, perform a dose-response experiment with appropriate positive and vehicle controls to validate efficacy in your specific model.
After the stock solution is prepared, it is typically stored at -80°C and can be kept for over 1 year. It is recommended to aliquot to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. For frequent use, it can be stored at 4°C for over a week.
Need this compound in a format that drops straight into your assay? We can tailor formulation, chemistry, and documentation so your results stay consistent across runs and re-orders.
- Format options: solid or pre-dissolved solution (choose solvent), target concentration, aliquots, light/moisture-protected packaging
- Chemistry options: free base/acid vs salt forms, hydrate/solvate preference, stereoisomer control (single enantiomer or racemate), close analogs
- Add-on labels & handles: D/¹³C/¹⁵N isotopes (LC-MS/internal standards), azide/alkyne or other functional handles for conjugation
- QC & documentation: standard COA or enhanced analytical pack (HPLC/LC-MS/NMR), chiral purity, residual solvents, water content (KF), method-specific specs
- Scale & continuity: mg to gram scale, bulk pricing, lot reservation, repeat-order continuity
To quote quickly, tell us: compound name + CAS/structure (SMILES or mol file), intended assay context, solvent preference, salt/stereochemistry requirements, purity/QC level, and the amount (mg–g).
