RJR 2429 dihydrochloride is a potent AChR agonist that displays selectivity for alpha4beta2 (Ki = 1 nM) and alpha1betagammadelta subtypes (EC50 values are 297 and 55 nM, respectively). It induces dopamine release from striatal neurons (EC50 = 2 nM) and inhibits ion flux in thalamic neurons (IC50 = 154 nM). RJR 2429 dihydrochloride is also a putative alpha3beta4 agonist that potentiates catecholamine release.
