MR2034 is a kappa-Opioid receptor agonist, stimulating hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.
Uses
MR2034 ((R)-UM-1071) is a κ-opioid receptor agonist with activity that stimulates the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. MR2034 has shown the potential to promote mood and inhibit addictive behaviors in animal models and can be used to study inhibitory approaches related to mood and addictive disorders. MR2034 is selective for κ-opioid receptors and can effectively modulate biological processes related to stress and mood[1].
