Description
Curator's Comment: Description was created based on several sources, including https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20537987

A-844606 is a selective α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) partial agonist (EC50 values are 1.4 and 2.2 μM at human and rat receptors respectively). Displays no measurable effect on α4β2 nAChRs. Stimulates α7 nAChR-induced ERK1/2 phosphorylation in PC12 cells. A-844606 is being investigated as the drug potentially usefull in the treatment of cognition disorders.
