Abstract:
As an extension of previous molecular modeling studies on nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) ligands,[1] we now adopted the LIR (Linear Interaction Response) approach to reach a realistic compromise between accuracy and calculation rate, during the delta(G)bind value estimation of a training set of known agonists for the alpha7 nAChR subtype.
The same strategy was applied to a text set of potential alpha7 nAChR agonists, which allowed identification of general structures A and B as the most promising ligands in the series. Thus, some of these derivatives were synthesized along with procedures previously utilized by us,[2] and were then assayed for binding affinity at alpha7 and alpha4beta2 nAChR subtypes.
