  1. Reduction in [18F]Nifene Binding, a PET imaging Probe for α4β2* Nicotinic acetylcholinergic receptors in Hippocampus-Subiculum of postmortem human Alzheimer's disease brain

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 45 out of 100. Brain research 2025-03-26 Drug development

    Nicotinic acetylcholinergic receptors (nAChRs), including the α4β2* subtype are involved in cognition, learning and memory and may be adversely affected in Alzheimer's disease (AD).

  2. The nicotinic allosteric potentiating ligand galantamine facilitates synaptic transmission in the mammalian central nervous system

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Molecular pharmacology 2002-05-01 Treatments

    In this study, the patch-clamp technique was used to determine the effects of galantamine, a cholinesterase inhibitor and a nicotinic allosteric potentiating ligand (APL) used for treatment of Alzheimer's disease, on synaptic transmission in brain slices.
