Objective To characterize the function of a new xanomeline-derived M 1 agonist, 3-[3-（3-florophenyl-2-propyn- 1- ylthio）-1,2,5-thiadiazol-4-yl]-1,2,5,6- tetrahydro-1-methylpyridine Oxalate （EUK1001）, the acute tox...Objective To characterize the function of a new xanomeline-derived M 1 agonist, 3-[3-（3-florophenyl-2-propyn- 1- ylthio）-1,2,5-thiadiazol-4-yl]-1,2,5,6- tetrahydro-1-methylpyridine Oxalate （EUK1001）, the acute toxicity and the effects on synaptic plasticity and cognition of EUK1001 were evaluated. Methods To examine the median lethal dose （LD50） of EUK1001, a wide dose range of EUK1001 was administered by p.o. and i.p. in aged mice. Furthermore, novel object recognition task and in vitro electrophysiological technique were utilized to investigate the effects of EUK1001 on recognition memory and hippocampal synaptic plasticity in aged mice. Results EUK1001 exhibited lower toxicity than xanomeline, and improved the performance of aged mice in the novel object recognition test. In addition, bath application of 1 μmol/L EUK1001 directly induced long-term potentiation in the hippocampus slices. Conclusion We conclude that EUK1001 can improve the agerelated cognitive deficits.展开更多
