E1145(±)-Epibatidine dihydrochloride hydrate ≥98% (HPLC), powder The activity of epibatidine at neuronal and neuromuscular nicotinic acetylcholine receptors was compared with the activity of nicotine and suxamethonium. Activation of ganglionic nicotinic receptors by epibatidine was shown in the guinea-pig ileum (contraction mediated by the cholinergic neurons of the ileum) and in pithed and atropinized rats (rise in blood pressure). Epibatidine also activated nicotinic receptors at the peripheral terminals of afferent C-fibres (rabbit ear) and in the brain (antidiuresis in rats). The agonistic effects of epibatidine were followed by long-lasting receptor desensitization. No antinociceptive effect of epibatidine was seen in rats at a dose free of motor impairment. On muscle end plate nicotinic receptors of the rat diaphragm (not responding to depolarizing agents by contraction), epibatidine was equipotent with suxamethonium in causing neuromuscular inhibition. On an extraocular muscle of the rabbit (responding to depolarizing agents by contraction) epibatidine in vitro and in situ caused a contraction at a 100-fold lower dose than suxamethonium. The Straub tail reaction in mice to epibatidine could be attributed to the sustained stimulation of motor end plate receptors of the "slow contracting" type of muscle fibres by epibatidine. Epibatidine was the most potent agonist on all neuronal and neuromuscular nicotinic receptors examined.

E0280(+)-Epibatidine dihydrochloride ≥98% (HPLC), solid (+)-Epibatidine is a non-opioid analgesic alkaloid isolated from skin of Ecuadoran tree frog, Epipedobates tricolor; naturally-occurring isomer of the most potent nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist known. Discoveries in the nAChR field have stimulated interest in nAChR-targeted compounds as potential analgesic agents. Epibatidine has full efficacy relative to opioids in preclinical pain models. Although epibatidine is toxic, these observations demonstrated that modest efficacy is not a general limitation of nAChR agonists. Moreover, exploration of the molecular biology of nAChRs revealed evidence of receptor diversity, suggesting that nAChR subtype-selective agents are less toxic than nicotine; and early medicinal chemistry efforts have resulted in compounds with improved safety profiles.

T5576TMPH hydrochloride solid, (Product is pure based on CHN, NMR and MS results) 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-4-yl heptanoate (TMPH) is a potent inhibitor of neuronal nicotinic receptors. Evaluation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) subunits expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes indicated that TMPH can produce a potent and long-lasting inhibition of neuronal nAChR formed by the pairwise combination of the most abundant neuronal alpha (i.e., alpha3 and alpha4) and beta subunits (beta2 and beta4), with relatively little effect, because of rapid reversibility of inhibition, on muscle-type (alpha1beta1gammadelta) or alpha7 receptors. However, the inhibition of neuronal beta subunit-containing receptors was also decreased if any of the nonessential subunits alpha5, alpha6, or beta3 were coexpressed. This decrease in inhibition is shown to be associated with a single amino acid present in the second transmembrane domain of these subunits. TMPH abilitty to relate the diverse central nervous system effects to specific nAChR subtypes makes it a useful tool for studying the functional roles of nAChR.
