Title:

NHRI technology, “DBPR211: a peripheral CB1 receptor antagonist” (abbreviated as “The Technology”) available for industry-academia collaboration or technology licensing.

Description:

Cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1) is expressed in several peripheral tissues related to metabolic control and its dysregulation contributes to metabolic disorders. DBPR211 is a highly selective antagonist of peripheral CB1 receptors. It exhibits beneficial effects in treating insulin resistance​, obesity and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. This unique mechanism may potentially render DBPR211 as a highly competitive first-in-class drug candidate for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, obesity and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
