    Product Description

    Salvinorin A propionate is a selective partial agonist at κ1-opioid receptors (KOR) with a Ki value of 32.6 nM.1 It inhibits adenylate cyclase (EC50 = 4.7 nM) in HEK293 cells transfected with human KOR.2 It is selective for KORs over µ, δ, and ORL-1 opioid receptors and has no effect at serotonin, dopamine, muscarinic, or adrenergic receptors. In mice, salvinorin A propionate (13 µg, i.c.v.) reduces nociceptive responses in a radiant heat tail-flick assay, though not as potently as salvinorin A (Item No. 11487).1

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
