Application
GTS-21 has been used:
- as an α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) partial agonist to elucidate its anti-inflammatory effects in mouse macrophages
- to test its protective effect on the renal injury induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS)
- to test its effect on microvascular inflammation in endotoxemia induced by LPS
Biochem/physiol Actions
GTS-2, a derivative of anisine is an immunomodulatory drug. It is used for treating pancreatitis and septicemia. GTS-2 inhibits the pro-inflammatory cytokines especially the interleukin-6 (IL6) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) in sepsis and endotoxemia.
GTS-21 is a selective agonist at α-7 nicotinic receptors with anti-inflammatory and cognition enhancing activities. GTS-21 has also been investigated for the treatment of schizophrenia.
GTS-21 is a selective agonist at α-7 nicotinic receptors.
