COR659 is a GABAB positive allosteric modulator (PAM) . COR659 suppresses alcohol and chocolate self-administration in rats[1]. COR659 apparently exerts its effects via a composite mechanism, including positive allosteric modulation of the GABAB receptor and an action at the cannabinoid CB1 receptor[3]. COR659 (0, 2.5, 5 and 10 mg/kg) treatment is completely ineffective on lever-responding (FR10) for regular food pellets in food-deprived Wistar rats[1].COR659 is able to suppress lever-responding for a sucrose solution in sP rats and a chocolate solution in Wistar rats[2]. Animal Model: Male sP and Wistar rats[1]. [1]. Paola Maccioni, et al.
