Explanation |
CTOP is a peptide that acts as a μ-opioid receptor antagonist.

Solubility |
Soluble to 1 mg/ml in water
|
BiologicalActivity |
Potent and selective μ opioid receptor antagonist (Ki values are 0.96 and >10,000 nM for μ and δ receptors respectively). Causes behavioral effects on central administration in vivo. Also increases K+ currents in rat locus ceruleus neurons in vitro via a μ receptor independent mechanism.
