(±)-Anatoxin A Fumarate is a synthetic analog of anatoxin-a, a neurotoxin originally found in certain species of cyanobacteria. As a research chemical, it is primarily used to study the cholinergic nervous system due to its agonistic activity on nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. This activity enables researchers to investigate the effects of overstimulation of these receptors, which is valuable for understanding the neurophysiological basis of conditions associated with cholinergic dysfunction. The compound′s action mimics the effects of acetylcholine, allowing for the study of synaptic transmission and the role of neurotransmitters in muscle contraction. Its fumarate salt form is favored in research applications for its stability and solubility properties.
