Abstract :
A series of azaaromatic quaternary ammonium analogs has been discovered as potent and selective alpha9alpha10 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) antagonists. The preliminary structure-activity relationships of these analogs suggest that increased rigidity in the linker units results in higher potency in inhibition of alpha9alpha10 nAChRs and greater selectivity over alpha7 nAChRs. These analogs represent a new class of analgesic for the treatment of neuropathic and tonic inflammatory pain. |
