25CN-NBOH is a brain-penetrant, highly potent and selective 5-HT2A receptor agonist (human 2A/rat 2C Ki = 1.3/132 nM; human 2A/2C PI turnover EC50 = 2.1/190 nM) with much reduced efficacy toward human 2B & 2C subtypes (Ki ratio: 2C/2A = 52-81 & 2B/2A = 37; Ca2+ mobilization Δlog(Rmax/EC50 ratio: 2C/2A = 30-180 & 2B/2A = 54; 2C/2A PI turnover EC50 ratio = 81-146) and other receptors/transporters/kinases. When administered in mice in vivo (1, 3, 6 mg/kg s.c.), 25CN-NBOH produces hallucinogen-like effects blockable by 5-HT2A antagonist M100907, but not 5-HT2C antagonist RS102221.
Brain-penetrant, highly potent and selective 5-HT2A receptor agonist with good in vitro & in vivo efficacy.
There is evidence that mGlu2/3 receptors regulate 5-HT2A signaling, interactions that have been theorized to play a role in the antipsychotic-like effects of mGlu2/3 agonists as well as the hallucinogenic effects of 5-HT2A agonists. One approach to unraveling this interaction
Timing deficits are observed in patients with schizophrenia. Serotonergic hallucinogens can also alter the subjective experience of time. Characterizing the mechanism through which the serotonergic system regulates timing will increase our understanding of the linkage between serotonin (5-HT) and schizophrenia
2-([2-(4-cyano-2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)ethylamino]methyl)phenol (25CN-NBOH) is structurally similar to N-benzyl substituted phenethylamine hallucinogens currently emerging as drugs of abuse. 25CN-NBOH exhibits dramatic selectivity for 5-HT2A receptors in vitro, but has not been behaviorally characterized. 25CN-NBOH was compared to the traditional phenethylamine hallucinogen R(-)-2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodoamphetamine
5-Hydroxytryptamine 2A receptor (5-HT2AR) agonist psychedelics are increasingly recognized as potentially useful treatments of psychiatric disorders, such as obsessive-compulsive disorder, depression, anxiety, and drug dependence. There is limited understanding of the way they exert their therapeutic action, but inhibition of

Serotonin 2A receptors, the molecular target of psychedelics, are expressed by neuronal and vascular cells, both of which might contribute to brain haemodynamic characteristics for the psychedelic state. Aiming for a systemic understanding of psychedelic vasoactivity, here we investigated the
