Background
Mecamylamine hydrochloride is a non-selective, non-competitive nAChR antagonist, has oral activity, and has certain therapeutic effects on various neuropsychiatric diseases. It can easily cross the blood-brain barrier[1,2].
At a holding potential of –70 mV, mecamylamine (1-20 μM) reduces the amplitude of the induced end plate current (EPC), the Hill constant is equal to 1.2, IC50 = 7.8 μM] [2].
Mecamylamine (0.5-1 mg/kg; Intraperitoneal injection; C57BL/6J mice) has antidepressant-like effects on both the TST and FST and these effects are dependent on the β2 and α7 subunits[3].[1].
