PHA-543613 is a potent, orally active, brain-penetrant and selective α7 nAChR agonist with a Ki of 8.8 nM. PHA-543613 displays selectivity for α7-nAChR over α3β4, α1β1γδ, α4β2 and 5-HT3 receptors[1]. PHA-543613 can be used for the cognitive deficits of Alzheimer’s disease and schizophrenia research[2].
PHA-543613 (0.3 mg/kg) successfully reverses Scopolamine-induced short-term memory deficits in rats[2].
PHA-543613 (4 and 12 mg/kg; i.p. once) reduces behavioral deficits and brain edema is dependent on the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway[3].
