Description
(±) -Nornicotine is a major metabolite of Nicotine. (±) -Nornicotine is a partial nAChRs agonist, specifically activating receptor subtypes containing α7 and α6 subunits. (±) -Nornicotine disrupts β-catenin and ZO-1, and induces F-actin depolymerization. (±) -Nornicotine supports self-administration behavior. (±) -Nornicotine can be used in the research of atherosclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, and schizophrenia[1][2][3][4].
