Reference sheet · Opioid · CPC catalog code OPIO-012
Reference standards in the Opioid class are typically shipped as lyophilized powder and stored desiccated at −20 °C protected from light. Once reconstituted in bacteriostatic water or the assay-appropriate buffer, aliquot and store at −80 °C to minimize freeze–thaw cycles. Confirm handling requirements against your institutional biosafety and radiation protocols before use.
Gliadorphin-7 sits within the Opioid research class (CPC reference OPIO-012). Opioid peptides bind μ, δ, and κ receptors — Gi/o-coupled GPCRs that inhibit adenylate cyclase, activate GIRK channels, and modulate calcium currents to produce analgesia, tolerance, and reward-circuit effects. Investigators typically incorporate Gliadorphin-7 as a reference standard, tool ligand, or substrate in the assay contexts listed above. GTPγS binding, cAMP HTRF, and β-arrestin PathHunter assays.
Gliadorphin-7 (CPC catalog code OPIO-012) is a synthetic opioid-receptor research peptide in the opioid category. It is provided as a lyophilized ~1 mg vial for in-vitro research use only.
Published and internal research programs use Gliadorphin-7 as a reference standard in opioid workflows — for example, opioid-receptor binding and selectivity profiling and β-arrestin recruitment and biased-agonism studies. Human clinical evidence is not established.
No. Gliadorphin-7 is a research-grade reference peptide and is not approved by the FDA or any national regulator for human or veterinary therapeutic use. It is offered exclusively for in-vitro laboratory research and does not ship to the United States for consumer use.
In a opioid workflow, Gliadorphin-7 is reconstituted in sterile buffer or DMSO (solubility-dependent) and applied in the researcher's chosen assay format. GTPγS binding, cAMP HTRF, and β-arrestin PathHunter assays.
Other reference standards in the same class — commonly cross-referenced during assay design and comparator selection.
