| Targets |
A-867744 targets the alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7 nAChR) as a type II positive allosteric modulator. The α7 nAChR is a ligand-gated ion channel involved in cognitive function, sensory gating, and neuroprotection. Unlike orthosteric agonists that bind to the acetylcholine binding site, positive allosteric modulators like A-867744 bind to a separate site on the receptor and enhance the receptor's response to endogenous acetylcholine. A-867744 has also been reported to target the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M5 (CHRM5) and neuronal acetylcholine receptor beta-2 (CHRNB2).

| ln Vitro |
A-867744 potentiates acetylcholine (ACh)-evoked currents at α7 nAChRs with an EC50 of approximately 1.0 μM. In Xenopus laevis oocytes expressing human or rat α7 receptors, A-867744 potentiates ACh-evoked currents with IC50 values of 0.98 μM and 1.12 μM for human and rat α7 receptors, respectively. The compound has been reported to have high purity (>99.7%) and is commonly provided as a 10 mM solution in DMSO for biochemical assays. It is a type II PAM with good potency and selectivity.
|
| ln Vivo |
A-867744 has demonstrated acceptable pharmacokinetic properties across multiple species and achieves sufficient levels in the brain to modulate α7 nAChRs. In rodent models of sensory gating, A-867744 has shown efficacy in modulating α7 nAChR-mediated responses. The compound's in vivo activity supports its utility as a research tool for studying the role of α7 nAChRs in cognitive function and neuropsychiatric disorders. Detailed in vivo efficacy data from specific animal models are limited in publicly available sources.

| Enzyme Assay |
In non-cell-based receptor binding and functional assays, A-867744's activity at the α7 nAChR is evaluated using radioligand binding and electrophysiological techniques. For binding studies, membrane preparations from cells expressing α7 nAChRs are incubated with a radiolabeled α7-selective ligand and varying concentrations of A-867744 to determine its affinity. For functional characterization, the compound's ability to potentiate ACh-evoked currents is measured in Xenopus laevis oocytes injected with α7 nAChR cRNA using two-electrode voltage clamp electrophysiology. These assays have established A-867744's EC50 of approximately 1 μM.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cellular assays for A-867744 involve measuring its effects on α7 nAChR-mediated calcium flux or electrophysiological responses in cultured cells. Cell lines expressing recombinant α7 nAChRs are treated with A-867744 in the presence of a sub-maximal concentration of acetylcholine, and receptor activation is assessed by measuring changes in intracellular calcium using fluorescence-based plate readers (FLIPR assays). The compound's ability to potentiate ACh-evoked responses is quantified to determine its PAM activity and potency. These functional assays have confirmed A-867744's EC50 of approximately 1.0 μM.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies for A-867744 have been conducted in rodent models to assess its effects on sensory gating and cognitive function. In sensory gating rodent models, A-867744 has been shown to modulate α7 nAChR-mediated responses. The compound is typically administered via oral or intraperitoneal routes, and its brain penetration has been confirmed. Behavioral assays such as prepulse inhibition of startle are used to evaluate sensory gating, while novel object recognition or Morris water maze tests are used to assess cognitive function.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
