3-Amino-N-(4-methoxybenzyl)-4,6-dimethylthieno[2,3-b]pyridinecarboxamide

Uses

VU 152100 is a positive allosteric modulator of muscarinic choline receptor M4.

Biological Activity

vu0152100 is a selective and positive allosteric modulators of m4 receptor with the ec50 value of 380±93nm[1].vu0152100 has shown a potent positive allosteric modulators that increase the response of the m4 receptor to the endogenous agonist ach in in vitro study. in addition, vu0152100 has been reported to dese-dependently potentiate the response to the agonist (ach) with the ec50 value of 1.9±0.2μm, and increase the maximal response to ach to approximately 130%. furthermore, vu0152100 has been revealed to enhance receptor activation by increasing the affinity of m4 for acetylcholine. apart from these, vu0152100 has been found to induce a 20 to 25-fold leftward shift in the potency of ach to displace [3h]nms binding to m4 receptor with the ki value from 252±19.7nm to 12.2±0.49nm [1].
