Product Data
Biological target:
NS 1738 (NSC 213859) is a novel positive allosteric modulator of the α7 nAChR.
In vitro activity:
This strategy revealed that the extracellular N-terminal domain of alpha7 plays a critical role in allosteric modulation by NS-1738. In addition, alpha7-5HT(3) chimeras harboring the M2-M3 segment showed that spontaneous activity in response to NS-1738, which confirmed the critical contribution of this small extracellular segment in the receptor gating. In contrast to NS-1738, positive allosteric modulation by PNU-120596 could not be restored in the alpha7-5HT(3) chimeras but was selectively observed in the reverse 5HT(3)-alpha7 chimera.

In vivo activity:
NS1738 was modestly brain-penetrant, and it was demonstrated to counteract a (-)-scopolamine-induced deficit in acquisition of a water-maze learning task in rats. Moreover, NS1738 improved performance in the rat social recognition test to the same extent as (-)-nicotine, demonstrating that NS1738 is capable of producing cognitive enhancement in vivo.
