Encenicline (EVP-6124; MT-4666) is a novel partial agonist of α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. EVP-6124 enhances dopamine, acetylcholine, and glutamate efflux in rat cortex and nucleus accumbens. EVP-6124 improves memory performance by potentiating the acetylcholine response of α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.
ln Vitro |
Encenicline (EVP-6124) has been substituted for [3H]-MLA (methylaconitine) (Ki=9.98 nM, pIC50=7.65±0.06, n=3) and [125I]-α-bungarotoxin (Ki=4.33 nM, pIC50=8.07±0.04), n=3). By using a [3H]-MLA binding test, encenicline (EVP-6124) was found to be around 300 times more powerful than the natural agonist ACh (Ki=3 μM). At 10 nM, the lowest studied concentration, encenicline inhibits 5-HT3 receptors by 51%. An assessment of human 5-HT2B receptors produced in CHO cells revealed only antagonist action in the rat fundus assay, with an IC50 of 16 μM, and displacement of [3H]-mesoergot (Ki=14 nM). Encenicline exhibited selectivity for α7 nAChR in binding and functional tests, but it did neither inhibit or activate heteromeric α4β2 nAChR[1].

ln Vivo |
Encenicline (EVP-6124) exhibits adequate exposure duration and strong brain penetration. In rats treated with scopolamine (0.1 mg/kg, ip), encenicline (EVP-6124) (0.3 mg/kg, po) dramatically improved memory performance during the object recognition test (ORT). On this task, oral donepezil (0.1 mg/kg) or encenicline (0.03 mg/kg) did not improve memory; however, coadministration of these ineffective doses totally restored memory. During a 24-hour retention period, encenicline at 0.3 mg/kg, po, enhanced memory in the spontaneous forgetting test (ORT). Methylated aconitine (0.3 mg/kg, ip or 10 μg, icv), a specific α7 nAChR antagonist, prevented this improvement. With a mean fu of 0.11±0.01 (mean±SD), or 11%, encenicline (EVP-6124) was shown to be moderately bound to rat plasma proteins. Proportionate dose escalation is seen with encenicline (EVP-6124) over the 0.1–30 mg/kg oral dosing range. Tmax was 4 hours for plasma and 2 hours for the brain; however, the concentrations in the brain did not change between 2 and 8 hours. The B:P ratio is 1.7–5.1 during the first eight hours[1]. According to pharmacokinetic research, encenicline (EVP-6124) (0.4 mg/kg, intraperitoneal injection) achieves maximum brain concentrations two hours after injection and keeps these quantities useful for a minimum of four hours. Without producing extended wakefulness or increased locomotor activity, encenicline (EVP-6124) given to WT mice at ZT0 (0.4 mg/kg ip single dose) dramatically raised the saturation index of NMDAR in slices retrieved 4 hours later [ 2].

Additional Infomation |
Encenicline has been investigated for the treatment of Cognition, Schizophrenia, Alzheimer's Disease, Cardiac Repolarization, and Central Nervous System Diseases.
Mechanism of Action Encenicline, a selective, orally active, alpha 7 Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor agonist (alpha 7 NAchR agonist). Encenicline may have a similar mechanism of action to GTS-21. Auditory sensory gating, a biological measurement of the ability to suppress the evoked response to the second of two auditory stimuli, is diminished in people with schizophrenia. Deficits in sensory gating are associated with attentional impairment, and may contribute to cognitive symptoms and perceptual disturbances. This inhibitory process, which involves the alpha(7) nicotinic receptor mediated release of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) by hippocampal interneurons, represents a potential new target for therapeutic intervention in schizophrenia. |
