Originally identified as a substrate (ChA or choline)-noncompetitive, slowly reversible choline acetyltransferase inhibitor (human ChAT/BuChE/AChE IC50 = 88 nM/33.3 μM/48.6 μM; does not affect mAChRs, AChE, ChE, CrAT, ganglionic or skeletal muscular nAChRs), α-NETA is a fluorescent molecule (Ex 255 & 297 nm; Em 427 nm) also known for its trace amine-associated receptor 5 (TAAR5 EC50 = 150 nM) agonist and chemokine-like receptor-1 antagonist (IC50 = 375 nM; 7 nM chemerin-induced CMKLR1 β-ARR2 recruitment) potencies both in cultures and in animal disease models in vivo (3-20 mg/kg via ip. or sc. in rats & mice).
Potent ChAT inhibitor, TAAR5 agonist, CMKLR1 (ChemR23) antagonist with in vivo efficacies in animal disease models.
Small molecules that disrupt leukocyte trafficking have proven effective in treating patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). We previously reported that chemerin receptor chemokine-like receptor 1 (CMKLR1) is required for maximal clinical and histological experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE); and identified CMKLR1
Therapies that target leukocyte trafficking pathways can reduce disease activity and improve clinical outcomes in multiple sclerosis (MS). Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is a widely studied animal model that shares many clinical and histological features with MS. Chemokine-like receptor-1 (CMKLR1)

Neural agrin plays a pleiotropic role in skeletal muscle innervation and maturation, but its specific effects on the contractile function of aneural engineered muscle remain unknown. In this study, neonatal rat skeletal myoblasts cultured within 3-dimensional engineered muscle tissue constructs
It is known that trace amine-associated receptor 5 (TAAR5) is expressed in various regions of the central nervous system. However, very limited information is available on the behavioral effects of TAAR5 activation and the TAAR5 functional role, in general. We
Mismatch negativity (MMN) is a well-defined component of human event-related potentials that reflects the pre-attentive, stimulus-discrimination process and is associated with involuntary switching of attention. MMN-like responses detected in animal models provide an opportunity to investigate the neural mechanisms of
