Biochem/physiol Actions

AR-R17779 is a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor alpha7 full agonist that targets α7 nAChR with high affinity (Ki = 92 nM/rat α7 against 5 nM α-BTX vs.16 μM/rat α4β2 against 3 nM (-)-nicotine) and selectivity (EC50 = 6.2/10/12.7 μM using human/rat/monkey α7 nAChR-Xenopus oocyte by whole cell voltage clamp, no antagonistic activity against acetylcholine using human α4β2-, α3β4-, α3β2-, α3β2α5-expressing oocytes or antagonistic activity against 5-HT using rat 5HT3a-exxpressing oocytes). AR-R17779 exhibits cognition-improving efficacy in rats (1-20 mg/kg s.c) and mice (1-20 mg/kg i.p.) in vivo and is widely employed for studying other α7 nAChR-dependent physiological functions.

Nicotinic acetylcholine systems have been found to be important for learning and memory function. The prototypic nicotinic agonist nicotine has been shown in a variety of studies to improve aspects of cognitive function. The specific involvement of nicotinic receptor subtypes

Activation of the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway (CAP) has been shown to reduce inflammation in animal models, while abrogation of the pathway increases inflammation. We investigated whether modulation of CAP influences inflammation in the non-obese diabetic (NOD) mouse model for Sjögren's

An alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor sequence was cloned from Rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta). This clone differs from the mature human alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor in only four amino acids, two of which are in the extracellular domain. The monkey alpha7

Maternal cigarette smoke is the major risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). A depressed ventilatory response to hypoxia (HVR) and hypercapnia (HCVR) is thought to be responsible for the pathogenesis of SIDS and the carotid body is critically involved

Neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors are members of the ligand-gated ion channel receptor superfamily and may play important roles in modulating neurotransmission, cognition, sensory gating, and anxiety. Because of its distribution and abundance in the CNS, the alpha 7 nicotinic receptor
