Monepantel (AAD1566) is an organic anthelmintic and nicotinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist from roundworms and esophagostomies that is widely used for de-worming in agriculture and livestock.

SIB-1553A hydrochloride is an orally available, selective nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist and a selective neuronal nAChR ligand.SIB-1553A hydrochloride enhances cognition and may be useful in the study of Alzheimer's disease and cognitive impairment.

CV-6209 is a potent antagonist of the platelet-activating factor (PAF) receptor.

JNJ-39393406 is an α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor positive allosteric modulator for the study of tobacco dependence and Alzheimer's disease.

Lecozotan HCl (SRA-333) is a potent and selective 5-HT antagonist that significantly enhances KCl-stimulated glutamate and acetylcholine release from the hippocampal dentate gyrus and has cognitive enhancing properties. Chronic administration of Lecozotan HCl did not induce 5-HT(1A) receptor tolerance or desensitization in a behavioral model demonstrating 5-HT(1A) receptor function.

SCH 57790 is a novel and selective muscarinic M(2) receptor antagonist that releases acetylcholine and enhances cognition in experimental animals for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

AZD 3043 (THRX 918661) is a variant modulator of the γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptor, a novel sedative-hypnotic and a potential short-acting anesthetic that produces hypnosis and EEG suppression in rats.AZD 3043 potentiates the γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptor and inhibits neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.

Simpinicline (OC-02) (OC-02) is a highly selective nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) agonist that activates the trigeminal parasympathetic pathway and can be used to treat dry eye.

Metapramine (19560 RP) is a novel psychostimulant, an N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDA) antagonist with antidepressant and anti-injury perception activity that promotes increased levels of acetylcholine in the striatum.

TC-2216 is a partial agonist at the neural nicotinic acetylcholine receptor and is used to treat anxiety and depression.

Adiphenine hydrochloride (Patrovina), a nicotinic receptor inhibitor, can be used as an antispasmodic drug.

Ipratropium bromide monohydrate (Ipratropium bromide hydrate) is a muscarinic antagonist structurally related to ATROPINE but often considered safer and more effective for inhalation use. It is used for various bronchial disorders, in rhinitis, and as an antiarrhythmic.

Tolterodine tartrate (PNU-200583E) is a potent antagonist for muscarinic receptor. It show selectivity for the urinary bladder and salivary glands in vivo.

Carbachol (Carbamoylcholine chloride), an analog of acetylcholine, serves as a valuable tool in the investigation of various physiological responses mediated by nicotinic (nAChR) and muscarinic (mAChR) acetylcholine receptors. These responses include smooth muscle contraction, gut motility, and neuronal signaling. Known for its agonistic properties, Carbachol activates both nAChR and mAChR, with reported Ki values ranging from 10 to 10,000 nM for different receptor types and experimental preparations.

Solifenacin succinate (YM905) is a quinuclidine and tetrahydroisoquinoline derivative and selective M3 MUSCARINIC ANTAGONIST. It is used as a UROLOGIC AGENT in the treatment of URINARY INCONTINENCE.

Pancuronium dibromide (Pavulon), a competitive AChR antagonist (IC50 = 5.5 nM), acts as a skeletal muscle relaxant. Pancuronium dibromide(Pancuronium bromide) blocking neuromuscular transmission is achieved by competing with acetylcholine for receptor sites on the motor end-plate.

Brompheniramine maleate (Dimotane) is an antagonist against histamine H1 receptors.

Methscopolamine (Hyoscine methyl bromide) (Pamine), as a natural plant alkaloid, is a muscarinic acetylcholine receptor blocker.

Aniracetam (Ro 13-5057)(Ro 13-5057), a nootropic and neuroprotective drug, selectively modulates the AMPA receptor and nAChR.

Homatropine Methylbromide is the methyl bromide salt of homatropine, a synthetic tertiary amine alkaloid with antimuscarinic properties.

Clozapine (HF 1854) is a tricylic dibenzodiazepine, classified as an atypical antipsychotic agent. It binds several types of central nervous system receptors, and displays a unique pharmacological profile. Clozapine is a serotonin antagonist, with strong binding to 5-HT 2A/2C receptor subtype. It also displays strong affinity to several dopaminergic receptors, but shows only weak antagonism at the dopamine D2 receptor, a receptor commonly thought to modulate neuroleptic activity.

Diphenmanil methylsulfate (Diphemanil mesylate), a quaternary ammonium anticholinergic, binds muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and thus decreases secretory excretion of stomach acids, sweat, and saliva.
