Biochem/physiol Actions

Originally identified as a substrate (ChA or choline)-noncompetitive, slowly reversible choline acetyltransferase inhibitor (human ChAT/BuChE/AChE IC50 = 88 nM/33.3 μM/48.6 μM; does not affect mAChRs, AChE, ChE, CrAT, ganglionic or skeletal muscular nAChRs), α-NETA is a fluorescent molecule (Ex 255 & 297 nm; Em 427 nm) also known for its trace amine-associated receptor 5 (TAAR5 EC50 = 150 nM) agonist and chemokine-like receptor-1 antagonist (IC50 = 375 nM; 7 nM chemerin-induced CMKLR1 β-ARR2 recruitment) potencies both in cultures and in animal disease models in vivo (3-20 mg/kg via ip. or sc. in rats & mice).

Small molecules that disrupt leukocyte trafficking have proven effective in treating patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). We previously reported that chemerin receptor chemokine-like receptor 1 (CMKLR1) is required for maximal clinical and histological experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE); and identified CMKLR1

Therapies that target leukocyte trafficking pathways can reduce disease activity and improve clinical outcomes in multiple sclerosis (MS). Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is a widely studied animal model that shares many clinical and histological features with MS. Chemokine-like receptor-1 (CMKLR1)

The activities of 2-(alpha-naphthoyl)ethyltrimethylammonium (alpha-NETA) and its beta-isomer (beta-NETA) were studied at various sites of the cholinergic system using isolated enzyme and organ systems. They were selective inhibitors (I50: alpha-NETA, 9 microM; beta-NETA, 76 microM) of choline acetyltransferase (ChA). The
