AVL-3288 (UCI-4083; UCI4083; CCMI; XY-4083; Anvylic-3288; AVL3288) is an orally bioavailable and selective allosteric modulator of the α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7 nAChR) with neuroprotective effects. AVL-3288 showed preclinical efficacy in rat paradigms of attention and memory, including models of cognitive dysfunction1-3. AVL-3288 evokes positive modulation of acetylcholine (ACh)-induced EC5 currents (EC50 = 0.7 μM). AVL-3288 exhibits cognitive-enhancing properties in rodent models; displays no cytotoxic effects in PC12 cells or rat primary cortical neurons.

Biological Activity
| ln Vitro | CCMI (Compound 6) is a strong and specific positive allosteric modulator of α7 nAChR. It significantly increases the positive modulation of α7 nAChR agonist-induced currents without binding to or activating α7 nAChR through the orthosite [1]. |

Solubility Data
| Solubility (In Vitro) | DMSO : ~100 mg/mL (~257.57 mM) |
| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (5.36 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (5.36 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
