nAChR Control

(+)-Coclaurine ((+)-(R)-Coclaurine) hydrochloride, benzyltetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloid isolated from a variety of plant sources. (+)-Coclaurine hydrochloride has anti-aging activity.

(R)-Monepantel (AAD2224) is the optical R-enantiomer of monepantel. (R)-Monepantel has no nematocidal effect, is inactive.

α-Nicotine is the α-isomer of Nicotine. Nicotine is a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) agonist. Nicotine is promising for research of neuropsychiatric disorders (e.g., schizophrenia, ADHD).

TTFB (N-(4-tert-butyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)-3-fluorobenzamide) is a selective, non-competitive zinc-activated channel (ZAC) antagonist. TTFB inhibits Zn²⁺- and H⁺-induced ZAC currents with IC₅₀ values of 3 μM and 8.5 μM, respectively, and has an IC₅₀ of 4.7 μM against spontaneous activity. TTFB shows no significant agonistic, antagonistic or modulatory activity towards representative classical Cys-loop receptors including m5-HT3AR, hα3β4 nAChR, hα1β2γ2S GABAAR and hα1 GlyR. TTFB can be used to investigate the physiological and pathological functions of ZAC.

(E/Z)-Rivanicline ((E/Z)-RJR-2403, (E/Z)-Metanicotine) is the E/Z mixture of Rivanicline (HY-13225A). Rivanicline is a neuronal nicotinic receptor (neuronal nicotinic receptor) agonist that is highly selective for the α4β2 subtype, K_i is 26 nM, which is more than 1000 times more inhibitory than α7 receptor.
