NS-136 is a selective muscarinic acetylcholine M 4 receptor positive allosteric modulator which is under development for the treatment of schizophrenia and Alzheimer's disease. [1] [3] [2] It has been found to possess pro-cognitive effects in rodents. [2] The drug is under development by NeuShen Therapeutics.
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) are acetylcholine receptors that form G protein-coupled receptor complexes in the cell membranes of certain neurons [1] and other cells. They play several roles, including acting as the main end-receptor stimulated by acetylcholine released from postganglionic fibers .

Along with the earlier drugs PD-0298029 and PD-102,807, NBI-1076968 is among the only selective M 4 receptor antagonists to have been developed to date. [3] However, in contrast to NBI-1076968, the earlier selective antagonists have not had optimal drug-like properties for development as pharmaceutical drugs.
Xanomeline is an agonist that primarily targets the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor family of five muscarinic receptor subtypes, which are designated M 1-M 5. [2] While it binds with near identical affinity to all five of the muscarinic receptor subtypes as measured by displacement of a muscarinic radioligand, the preponderance of evidence suggests that xanomeline acts preferentially in the ...
A muscarinic acetylcholine receptor agonist, also simply known as a muscarinic agonist or as a muscarinic agent, is an agent that activates the activity of the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor. [1] The muscarinic receptor has different subtypes, labelled M1-M5, allowing for further differentiation.
[1] [2] As of August 2024, it is in phase 2 clinical trials. [1] [3] Emraclidine is a positive allosteric modulator that selectively targets the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M4 subtype. The M4 receptor subtype is expressed in the striatum of the brain, which plays a key role in regulating acetylcholine and dopamine levels. An imbalance of ...
