Consistent with this concept, it has been reported that thiochrome, a thiamine metabolite, selectively enhances the affinity of ACh for the M4 receptor subtype without affecting ACh binding or function at the other ...

The nicotine injection (1 μg/rat) into the CeA decreased the percentage of open arm time and open arm entries, but not locomotor activity, indicating an anxiogenic-like response. Intra-VTA injection of a dopamine ...

Nicotinic agonist
A nicotinic agonist is a drug that mimics the action of acetylcholine (ACh) at nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs). The nAChR is named for its affinity for nicotine.Examples include nicotine (by definition), acetylcholine (the endogenous agonist of nAChRs), choline, epibatidine, lobeline, varenicline and cytisine.
