Abstract
M1 selective agonists from the AF series (e.g. AF102B, AF150(S)), via m1 muscarinic receptors, activate distinct signal transductions, enhance amyloid precursors proteins secretion from transfected cells and primary cell cultures, show neurotrophic effects and are beneficial in a variety of animal models for Alzheimer's disease. Such m1 agonists may be effective in the treatment and therapy of Alzheimer's disease.
