Abstract

Abstract: A novel class of α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) agonists has been discovered through high-throughput screening. The cis γ-lactam scaffold has been optimized to reveal highly potent and selective α7 nAChR agonists with in vitro activity and selectivity and with good brain penetration in mice.
