KNT-127 is an opioid drug selective for the delta opioid receptors. [1] It might be used as an analgesic and anxiolytic.

Contents

Potential uses

KNT-127 can be used as an analgesic. In mice, it was able to reverse inflammatory hyperalgesia. [2]

Multiple tests have shown KNT-127 to be able to reduce anxiety, [3] in a similar way to muscimol, [4] a GABAA agonist.

Tolerance

Chronic administration of KNT-127 created cross-tolerance to the analgesic effects of SNC-80, another opioid.
