Description: Potent GPR55 agonist
Chemical Name: 5-Methyl-4-[(1R,6R)-3-methyl-6-(1-methylethenyl)-2-cyclohexen-1-yl]-1,3-benzenediol
Purity: ≥97% (HPLC)
Biological Activity for O-1602
O-1602 is an analog of cannabidiol that is a potent agonist at the GPR55 cannabinoid receptor (EC50 values are 13, > 30000 and > 30000 nM for GPR55, CB1 and CB2 receptors respectively). Induces activation of RhoA, cdc42 and rac1. Increases proliferation of neural stem cells NSCs in vitro and in vivo. Also promotes neurogenesis in vivo.

O-1602 was used to study impact of GPR-55 on prostaglandin E2 release from hippocampal microglial cells. We found that O-1602 causes a clear, albeit not very mighty effect decreasing PGE2 release; concentrations higher than 50 microM did not display a significant difference from effect generated by 50 microM of O-1602.
When supplier's aliquot is added to work solution, product must be obviously sonicated for proper mixture.
