nAChR agonist CMPI hydrochloride
nAChR agonist CMPI hydrochloride is a potent and selective positive allosteric modulator (PAM) of nAChR containing a α4:α4 subunit interface. nAChR agonist CMPI hydrochloride enhances the response of (α4)3(β2)2 nAChR to ACh (10 µM) with an EC50 of 0.26 µM. nAChR agonist CMPI hydrochloride has potential for the research of nicotine dependence and many neuropsychiatric conditions associated with decreased brain cholinergic activity.

Biological Activity
nAChR[1]
CMPI (0.01-10 µM) potentiates (α4)3(β2)2 (low ACh sensitivity) but not (α4)2(β2)3 (high ACh sensitivity) nAChRs in Xenopus laevis oocytes[1].
CMPI (0.01-10 µM) inhibits (α4)2(β2)3, human muscle and Torpedo nAChRs with IC50s of 0.6, 0.7 and 0.2 µM, respectively in Xenopus oocytes[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
