A-582941 is a selective α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) agonist that effectively crosses the blood-brain barrier. With Ki values of 10.8 nM in rat brain and 17 nM in human frontal cortex, it demonstrates significant biological activity by promoting ERK1/2 and CREB phosphorylation, inhibiting GSK-3β through Ser-9 phosphorylation, and enhancing acetylcholine release. Additionally, A-582941 induces the expression of activity-regulated cytoskeleton-associated protein (Arc) and c-Fos while activating brain regions linked to working memory and attention. This compound is valuable for investigating mechanisms involved in Alzheimer's disease and schizophrenia.
