3D-QSAR Analysis and Molecular Docking Studies of Novel a7 nAChR Antagonists
The neuronal a7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) was proposed as a potential therapeutic target for a broad range of neurodegenerative and psychiatric diseases. Although extensive efforts have been taken to identify selective a7 nAChR agonists, the development of a7 selective antagonists was still relatively limited. Recently, two distinct families of small molecules were discovered as novel a7 nAChR antagonists based on pharmacophore virtual screening and exhibited good selectivity for the neuronal a7 subtype nAChRs and brain penetration ability.
