Biological Data Biological description Salvinorin B (SALB) is a pharmacologically inert ligand that potently and selectively activates the KORD (the κ-opioid designer receptor (DREADD)) (EC50 = 11.8 nM).
Salvinorin B (SALB) is ~100-fold selective for the KORD DREADD over human κ opioid receptor and other targets and shows good CNS penetrability.
Activation of KORD by Salvinorin B (SALB) induces neuronal inhibition and modifies behaviour in vivo.
Salvinorin B (SALB) can be used in mice also expressing Clozapine N-Oxide (CNO) responsive DREADDS, to allow bi-directional manipulation of neural circuits.
CNO dihydrochloride (water soluble), Clozapine N-oxide (CNO) freebase, Compound 21 Â and perlapine freebase also available.
