Rivanicline
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Rivanicline (RJR-2403) is a neuronal nicotinic receptor agonist. Rivanicline is highly selective for the rat brain cortex nAChRs (Ki = 26 nM, EC50 of 732 nM) and α4β2 subtype (Ki = 26 nM, EC50 = 16 μM). Rivanicline can significantly restore the learning impairment and cognitive dysfunction. Rivanicline can be used for the study of neurodegenerative diseases (such as schizophrenia or Alzheimer's disease).

Rivanicline (75-125 µmol/kg, s.c., single dose) can cause a decrease in body temperature, respiratory rate, Y-maze activity and auditory startle response, but its potency is significantly lower than that of nicotine in mice physiological test battery model[2].
Rivanicline (2 mg/kg, i.p., single dose) restores the learning ability of mice in impairment of eyeblink conditioning model[4].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
