Chemistry:AB0124

From HandWiki

AB0124 is a serotonin 5-HT2A receptor positive allosteric modulator.[1][2][3] It is highly selective for potentiation of the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor, with no potentiation of the serotonin 5-HT2B and 5-HT2C receptors.[1][2] In addition, it showed no orthosteric agonistic activity at any of the serotonin 5-HT2 receptors.[1] AB0124 has been studied in combination with the serotonin 5-HT2 receptor agonist (R)-DOI in animal models of cocaine use disorder.[2][1] The chemical synthesis of AB0124 has been described.[3] The drug was patented in 2022[3] and was first described in the scientific literature by 2024.[2][1]
