Use of Azemiopsin

Azemiopsin is a potent nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) inhibitor with IC50s of 0.18 μM and 22 μM against T. californica nAChR and human α7 nAChR, respectively. Azemiopsin blocks acetylcholine-induced currents in Xenopus oocytes heterologously expressing human muscle-type nAChR[1].
