ALS-I-41

ALS-I-41 is a novel, potent and selective oxytocin receptor antagonist with the potential to modulate biological activities related to social behavior and mental disorders. ALS-I-41 is being evaluated for behavioral pharmacology experiments in non-human primates and can be administered via intranasal or intramuscular injection. The central nervous system penetration and metabolic rate of ALS-I-41 were studied by mass spectrometry analysis in cerebrospinal fluid and plasma of macaque monkeys.
