TrkB

ANA-12 binds directly and selectively to TrkB and inhibits processes downstream of TrkB without altering TrkA and TrkC functions. In nnr5 PC12-TrkB cells, ANA-12 prevents brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)-induced neurite outgrowth at concentrations as low as 10 nM. In DRG neurons, ANA-12 eliminates the effect of BDNF on increasing inward current.

In adult C57BL6/129SveV F1s mice, ANA-12 (0.5 mg/kg, i.p.) decreases TrKB activity in the brain and reduces the anxiety- and depression-related behaviors without affecting the neuron survival. In male C57BL/6 mice, ANA-12 (0.5 mg/kg, i.p.) shows antidepressant-like effects on lipopolysaccharide-induced depression-like behavior. In male Sprague-Dawley rats, ANA-12 (3 μg/dose) blocks the effect of medial nucleus tractus solitarius (mNTS) BDNF on reducing food intake. In male wild-type mice, ANA-12 reverses ethanol intake and induces D3 receptor downregulation, but is ineffective in D3R-/- mice. In male CocSired rats, ANA-12 (0.5 mg/kg, i.p.) reverses the diminished self-administration of cocaine.
