MedKoo Cat#: 527608 | Name: 18-Methoxycoronaridine

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

18-Methoxycoronaridine, also known as 18-MC, is a nicotinic α3β4 antagonist potentially for the treatment of cocaine abuse. 18-Methoxycoronaridine slows the rate of induction of behavioral sensitization to nicotine. The primary mechanism of action of 18-MC is believed to be the inhibition of α3β4 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors which are densely expressed in the medial habenula and interpeduncular nucleus. 18-Methoxycoronaridine has also been shown to attenuate sucrose reward, decrease sucrose intake and prevent the development of sucrose-induced obesity.
