Contrasting properties of α7-selective orthosteric and allosteric agonists examined on native nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.
Subtype-selective ligands are important tools for the pharmacological characterisation of neurotransmitter receptors. This is particularly the case for nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), given the heterogeneity of their subunit composition. In addition to agonists and antagonists that inter...
