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.

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

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 vagal nerve suppresses inflammatory responses through activation of α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAchR). We sought to determine whether AR-R17779, a selective agonist of α7nAchR, affects the development of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). AAA was induced by topical application

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
