Biochem/physiol Actions

BMS-986122 is a positive allosteric modulator (PAM of the m-opioid receptor). BMS986122 displays little or no agonist activity alone, but dose dependently increases endomorphin-I induced b-arrestin recruitment, and inhibition of forskolin-induced adenyl cyclase activity. The compound also potentiates DAMGO-stimulated GTPgS receptor binding.

BMS-986122 may exhibit an antinociception effect in vivo by increasing the efficiency of Met-enkephalin (met-Enk) to inhibit γ aminobutyric acid (GABA) release in the periaqueductal gray region of the brain.
