AR-R 17779 Hydrochloride is a selective α7 nicotinic receptor agonist. | [Biological Activity]
ar-r 17779 is a selective agonist of α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7-nachr) [1] with an ec50 of 21 μm to rat α7-nachrs expressed in xenopus oocytes [2].nicotine enhances cognitive functions, e.g. learning, attention, retention and memory in both humans and animals, via activation of brain nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nachrs). these receptors are homo- or heteropentameric ligand-gated ion channels. the most common nicotinic receptors found in the brain are the α4β2-nachr and the α7-nachr [3].the expression of cd38, cd138, and bcl-6, was sensitive to regulation via nachrs. daudi cells exposed to ar-r 17779 ± methyllycaconitine (mla) resulted in only moderate changes in the gene expression of cd38, cd138 and bcl-6, but ar-r 17779 alone significantly (p< 0.05) increased protein levels of cd38 and cd138. that means the effect of ar-r 17779 was abolished by mla [4].cholesterol is necessary for the homeostasis of acetylcholine receptor (achr) levels for ion translocation and at the plasmalemma [5]. in apoe-deficient mice, ar-r 17779 significantly reduced atherosclerotic plaque area in the thoracic aorta, and lowered heart rate, blood pressure, serum triglyceride level and serum total cholesterol level compared with which in ang ii + hfd mice. treatment with ar-r 17779 in mice did not result in any sickness behavior or apparent abnormalities. at the end of the experiment, the serum concentration of ar-r 17779 was 1.18 ± 0.17 μm. in apoe-deficient mice, treatment with ar-r 17779 resulted in significantly reduced aortic diameter comparable to control mice (0.81 ± 0.11 mm, p< 0.0001 vs. ang ii + hfd) [1]. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
AR-R17779 is a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor alpha7 full agonist that targets α7 nAChR with high affinity (Ki = 92 nM/rat α7 against 5 nM α-BTX vs.16 μM/rat α4β2 against 3 nM (-)-nicotine) and selectivity (EC50 = 6.2/10/12.7 μM using human/rat/monkey α7 nAChR-Xenopus oocyte by whole cell voltage clamp, no antagonistic activity against acetylcholine using human α4β2-, α3β4-, α3β2-, α3β2α5-expressing oocytes or antagonistic activity against 5-HT using rat 5HT3a-exxpressing oocytes). AR-R17779 exhibits cognition-improving efficacy in rats (1-20 mg/kg s.c) and mice (1-20 mg/kg i.p.) in vivo and is widely employed for studying other α7 nAChR-dependent physiological functions. | [References]
