Background:

Arecoline hydrobromide is a nicotinic acids-based alkaloid and partial agonist of muscarinic acetylchiline M1, M2, M3 and M4 receptors. The LD50 of subcutaneous injection value is 100?mg/kg in mouse [1].

Arecoline hydrobromide has been suggested to have electrophysiological effects on ventricular myocytes. Arecoline hydrobromide has shown the significant inhibitory effect on hERG current with the IC50 value of 9.55μmol/L. Furthermore, Arecoline hydrobromide has demonstrated the concentration- , time- and voltage-dependent characteristics of IhERG inhibition in the patch clamp experiments. Apart from these, Arecoline hydrobromide has been exhibited to significant change in the amount of steady-state blockade at stimulation frequencies. It has been shown frequency-dependent characteristics inhibition of IhERG by Arecoline hydrobromide [1].
