Nicotinic receptor agonist

Nicotine is a naturally produced alkaloid in the nightshade family of plants (most predominantly in tobacco and Duboisia hopwoodii) and is widely used recreationally as a stimulant and anxiolytic. As a pharmaceutical drug, it is used for smoking cessation to relieve withdrawal symptoms. Nicotine acts as a receptor agonist at most nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), except at two nicotinic receptor subunits (nAChRα9 and nAChRα10) where it acts as a receptor antagonist.

(2'S)-Nicotine-1-oxide, a nicotine metabolite, arises from the liver's metabolism of nicotine via the cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoform CYP2A6. It has been identified in human sperm and semen.

N-Nitrosonornicotine, a tobacco-specific nitrosamine, exhibits carcinogenic and mutagenic properties, and is capable of inducing micronuclei in C3A cells. Additionally, N-Nitrosonornicotine can form DNA adducts.

N'-Nitrosonornicotine is a tobacco-specific N-nitrosamine and carcinogen that has been found in unburned tobacco and cigarette smoke.1It induces the formation of DNA adducts in isolated rat nasal mucosa and esophagus. N'-Nitrosonornicotine induces tumor formation in rat esophagus and nasal cavity, mouse lung, forestomach, and trachea, and hamster trachea and forebrain. Urinary levels of N'-nitrosonornicotine are positively correlated with the risk of esophageal cancer in smokers.2 1.Hecht, S.S.Biochemistry, biology, and carcinogenicity of tobacco-specific N-nitrosaminesChem.

Metanicotine is a selective nicotinic agonist with antinociceptive properties.

(±)-Nornicotine-d4 (pyridine-d4) is a deuterated compound of (±)-Nornicotine. (±)-Nornicotine has a CAS number of 5746-86-1.

N′-Nitrosonornicotine N-glucuronide is a biochemical reagent utilized in glycobiology research. This field examines the structure, synthesis, biology, and evolution of sugars, encompassing carbohydrate chemistry, glycoconjugate formation and degradation enzymology, protein-glycan recognition, and the roles of glycans in biological systems. It is intimately connected with fundamental research, biomedicine, and biotechnology.

NNK is a nicotinic nitrosylated derivative. It activates ERK1 2 and PKCα, and activates Bcl2 phosphorylation at Ser70, as well as c-Myc at Thr58 and Ser62.It can be used to construct mouse models of lung cancer, as well as to induce proliferation and survival of human lung cancer cells.

UB 165 fumarate is an agonist of the nAChR, a partial agonist of the α4β2 subtype, and a full agonist of the α3β2 subtype, with a Ki value of 0.27 nM for binding to [3H]-nicotine measured in rat brain.

Arecoline is a natural alkaloid derived from areca nut in the palm family and is a potent nicotine and partial agonist of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. Arecoline has anti-anxiety and anti-parasitic activity, can induce oxidative stress and can be used to study Alzheimer's disease and Alzheimer's disease.

BPTU (BMS-646786) is an allosteric antagonist of P2Y1 (EC50 = 0.06-0.3 μM). Non-nucleotide ligand. Binds receptor outside of the helical bundle. Blocks inhibition of spontaneous contraction of rat and mouse colon induced by electrical field stimulation, nicotine and P2Y agonists. Antithrombotic; reduces platelet aggregation.

AZD-8529 mesylate is a highly selective, and orally bioavailable positive allosteric modulator of mGluR2 (EC50: 285 nM). It shows no positive allosteric modulator responses at 20-25 M on the mGluR1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 subtypes.

3-Pyridylacetic acid hydrochloride (3-PAA-HCl) is a high homologue of niacin. It is a decomposition product of nicotine (and other tobacco alkaloids). It can also react with amines, alcohols and carboxylic acids, and can also act as an acid in the reaction. catalyst.

Rivanicline hemioxalate, also known as RJR-2403 hemioxalate or (E)-Metanicotine hemioxalate, is a chemical compound acting as a neuronal nicotinic receptor agonist with pronounced selectivity for the α4β2 receptor subtype, showing over 1,000-fold greater selectivity for this subtype (Ki=26 nM) compared to α7 receptors (Ki=3.6 μM). Its in vitro studies demonstrate no significant activation of nAChRs in PC12 cells, muscle type nAChRs, or muscarinic receptors at concentrations up to 1 mM. Furthermore, Rivanicline displayed less than one-tenth the potency of nicotine in inducing ileum contraction, with substantially lower efficacy, and failed to antagonize nicotine-induced stimulation of muscle or ganglionic nAChR functions, with an IC50 value greater than 1 mM. Chronic exposure to Rivanicline at 10 microM led to up-regulation of high-affinity nAChRs in M10 cells, mimicking effects observed with nicotine. In vivo studies revealed that Rivanicline significantly reversed scopolamine-induced amnesia and improved working and reference memory in a rat model, while being 15 to 30 times less potent than nicotine in affecting body temperature, respiration, and other physiological responses. Metanicitone's potency was approximately five times lower than nicotine in tail-flick tests following subcutaneous administration, yet slightly more potent upon central administration.
