DESCRIPTION Encenicline (EVP-6124) is a selective ??7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChRs) agonist being developed to treat cognitive impairment in schizophrenia and Alzheimer's disease.
DESCRIPTION EVP-6124 is a novel partial agonist of α7 neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs). It shows selectivity for α7 nAChRs and did not activate or inhibit heteromeric α4β2 nAChRs and improves memory performance by potentiating the acetylcholine response of α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. (BOC Sciences Bioactive Compounds)
DESCRIPTION EVP-6124, its alpha-7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist, possesses a novel mechanism not previously seen in the scientific community: it acts as a co-agonist with Acetylcholine (ACh) to enhance cognition. By acting as a co-agonist and sensitizing the alpha-7 receptor, EVP-6124 makes it possible for smaller amounts of naturally occurring ACh, typically found in individuals with memory disorders such as Alzheimer's, to be required to activate the receptor. In this scenario, research demonstrated that memory deficits can be minimized or entirely reversed by controlling the neuronal channel with EVP-6124 alone or in combination with other Alzheimer's drugs.
