VU6005806 is a potent positive allosteric modulator (PAM) of muscarinic acetylcholine receptor subtype 4 (M4) (EC50s: 94 nM, 28 nM, 87 nM, and 68 nM for human, rat, dog, and cyno M4, respectively), and used in the study of neuropsychiatric disorders.
PCS1055 dihydrochloride is an effective, selective, and competitive muscarinic M4receptor antagonist (IC50: 18.1 nM and a Kd: 5.72 nM). PCS1055 dihydrochloride is also a potent AChE inhibitor (IC50 s: 22 nM and 120 nM for electric eel and human AChE, res
VU0467485 is a potent and selective muscarinic acetylcholine receptor 4 positive allosteric modulator. VU0467485 potentiates the activity of ACh at M4 (EC50s: 26.6 nM and 78.8 nM at the rat and humanM4receptors, respectively). VU0467485 displays selecti
Arecaidine propargyl ester is an agonist of M2muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs).1It selectively binds to M2over M1, M3, M4, and M5mAChRs in CHO cells expressing the humanreceptors (Kis = 0.0871, 1.23, 0.851, 0.977, and 0.933 μM, respectively). Arecaidine propargyl ester induces contractions in isolated guinea pig atrium (pD2= 8.67). It induces apoptosis and the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in U87 and U251 glioblastoma cells when used at a concentration of 100 μM.2Arecaidine propargyl ester decreases mean arterial blood pressure in normotensive cats (ED25= 1.9 nmol kg).3It is toxic to house flies (Musca) when administered at a dose of 75 μg fly.4 1.Scapecchi, S., Matucci, R., Bellucci, C., et al.Highly chiral muscarinic ligands: the discovery of (2S,2’R,3’S,5’R)-1-methyl-2-(2-methyl-1,3-oxathiolan-5-yl)pyrrolidine 3-sulfoxide methyl iodide, a potent, functionally selective, M2 partial agonistJ.
