JWX-A0108 is a selective human alpha7 nAChR positive allosteric modulator with an EC50 of 4.35 µM. JWX-A0108 potentiates alpha7 nAChR currents only in the presence of acetylcholine, with no direct activating effect or alteration of desensitization. JWX-A0108 enhances hippocampal GABAergic synaptic transmission by increasing spontaneous inhibitory postsynaptic currents. JWX-A0108 reduces the brain expression levels of IL-1beta, TNF-alpha, and IL-6 by blocking the NF-kappaB signaling pathway, and reduces microglial activation by downregulating Iba1. JWX-A0108 effectively improves cognitive deficits, neuroinflammation, and hippocampal neuronal damage in mouse models of schizophrenia and Alzheimers disease. JWX-A0108 can be used for research related to schizophrenia and Alzheimers disease[1][2][3].
