OC000459 inhibited chemotaxis (IC50 = 0.028 μM) of human Th2 lymphocytes and cytokine production (IC50 = 0.019 μM) by human Th2 lymphocytes.

Arecoline Hydrobromide is a muscarinic acetylcholine receptor agonist. Target: mAChRArecoline is an alkaloid found in the areca nut. Arecoline. a drug obtained from the Areca Catechu L., induced a dose-dependent antinociception (0.3-1 mg kg(-1) i.p.) which was prevented by the muscarinic antagonists pirenzepine (0.1 microg per mouse i.c.v.) and S-(-)-ET-126 (0.01 microg per mouse i.c.v.) [1]. Arecoline exerts its excitatory actions by binding to M2-muscarinic receptors on the cell membrane of neurons of the locus coeruleus [2]. Arecoline (1 nM - 1 microM) produced a concentration-dependent contraction in both the longitudinal and the circular smooth muscle of rabbit colon. Atropine (10 microM) abolished the arecoline (80 nM)--induced contraction. M3 receptor antagonist, 4 - DAMP (0.4 microM), abolished the arecoline (80 nM)--related response, whereas M2 receptor antagonist, gallamine (0.4 microM), did not affect the effect of arecoline. These results suggest that arecoline excites the colonic motility via M3 receptor in rabbits [3].
Methscopolamine (Pamine) is a muscarinic acetylcholine receptor blocker. Target: mAChRMethylscopolamine is an oral medication used along with other medications to treat peptic ulcers by reducing stomach acid secretion. With the advent of proton pump inhibitors and antihistamine medications it is rarely used for this. It can also be used for stomach or intestinal spasms, to reduce salivation, and to treat motion sickness. From Wikipedia.Methscopolamine (Pamine), an anti-acetylcholine drug, prevented ulcer formation, reduced further volume and acid output but produced a 3-4 fold increase in hexosamine concentration. Tissue (corpus and antrum) hexosamine was moderately reduced by restraint. In the corpus, this was counteracted by methscopolamine but antrum hexosamine was not influenced by this drug. The anti-ulcer property of methscopolamine may be due not only to its effect on acid secretion but also to the rise in gastric mucus concentration that it produced [1].
