Pharmacological agent List
Name/Description
1
Acetyl Choline 
 The chemical compound acetylcholine (often abbreviated ACh) is a neurotransmitter.
2
AF267B 
 M1 muscarinic agonist
3
alpha7 nicotinic receptor antagonists 
 E.g. methyllycaconitine
4
Atropine 
 Atropine is a tropane alkaloid extracted from the deadly nightshade (Atropa belladonna) and other plants of the family Solanaceae. It is a competitive antagonist for the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor. It is classified as an anticholinergic drug.
5
brefeldin A 
 blocks protein expression
6
Calcicludine 
 Calcicludine (CaC) is a protein toxin from the venom of the green mamba that inhibits high-voltage-activated calcium channels, especially L-type calcium channels.
7
Calcium (extracellular) 
 
8
Calpain Inhibitor I 
 
9
Carbachol 
 A muscarinic Ach receptor agonist
10
Choline 
 Choline is an organic compound, classified as a water-soluble essential nutrient[1][2][3] and usually grouped within the Vitamin B complex. This natural amine is found in the lipids that make up cell membranes and in the neurotransmitter acetylcholine.
11
CL316243 
 A beta(3) adrenergic agonist
12
Clonidine 
 A synthetic drug, C9H9Cl2N3. A central alpha-adrenergic agonist.
13
Clozapine 
 
14
cycloheximide 
 Blocks protein expression
15
Dihydro-beta-erythroidine (DHbetaE) 
 A nicotinic acetyl choline receptor antagonist
16
Donepezil 
 Cholinesterase inhibitor
17
Epibatidine 
 Epibatidine is an alkaloid that originally is found in the skin of a neotropical poisonous frog, Epipedobates tricolor, found in modern Ecuador. It binds to nicotinic ACh receptors.
18
Galantamine 
 
19
Gingkolides 
 Gingkolides A and B, derived from Gingko biloba
20
Histidine-associating Compounds 
 Ni(2+), imidazole, histidine and other histidine-related compounds. these cause histidines in peptide segments to associate.
21
Huperzine 
 
22
Mecamylamine 
 Mecamylamine is a nicotinic antagonist that is well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and crosses the blood-brain barrier. Mecamylamine has been used as a ganglionic blocker in treating hypertension
23
Memantine 
 
24
Nicotine 
 Agonist for a class of acetylcholine receptors.
25
Nifedipine 
 Selective antagonist of L-type calcium channels
26
Nimodipine 
 
27
NMDA receptor blockers 
 
28
Okadaic Acid 
 
29
P35 Antisense Oligonucleotides 
 
30
PD98059 
 Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Kinase Inhibitor
31
Pirenzepine 
 Pirenzepine is a 'selective' antimuscarinic agent used in the treatment of peptic ulcers.
32
Rivastigmine 
 
33
Rolipram 
 Rolipram, an selective inhibitor of cyclic AMP - cAMP (type 4 cyclic adenosine monophosphate) phosphodiesterase (PDE4)
34
Sulpiride 
 Sulpiride is an anti-psychotic drug used mainly in the treatment of psychosis (e.g. schizophrenia) and depression. It is a substituted benzamide.
35
Tacrine 
 
36
THA 
 tetrahydroaminoacridine, a cholinesterase inhibitor
37
Thiorphan 
 The drug Racecadotril is rapidly metabolized to its active metabolite thiorphan, is a neutral endopeptidase (NEP) inhibitor
38

 Verapamil (brand names: Isoptin, Verelan, Calan, Bosoptin) is an L-type calcium channel blocker.
40
Zn2+ (Zinc) 
 Abeta channel blocker
41
ZSET1446 
 A novel anti-amnestic agent
