Application

CGP 52608 has been used as a RAR related orphan receptor α (RORα) synthetic agonist in THP-1 macrophages,[1] in human monocyte cells THP1[2] and somatic testicular cells.[3]

Biochem/physiol Actions

CGP 52608 is a specific activator of retinoic acid receptor-related orphan receptor α (RORA).
CGP 52608 is a thiazolidine derivative[4] and an antiarthritic compound.[5] It possesses immunostimulatory functionality[4] and elicits antiproliferative effect in colon tumors.[6] It is cytotoxic towards neural cell lines.[5] CGP 52608 induces apoptosis in tumor[6] and also favors G0-G1 cell cycle phase accumulation in neural cell lines.[5]

Deficits in N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR)-mediated neurotransmission may underlie dopaminergic hyperactivity in schizophrenia. Dysregulation of the GABAergic system has also been implicated. In this study we investigated a role for GABA(B) receptors as an intermediate step in the pathway leading from
