Fipamezole is a potent alpha2 adrenergic receptor antagonist that may be useful for studying autonomic dysfunction in Parkinson's disease.

Nociceptin (1-13), amide is a potent ORL1 (OP4) receptor agonist with a pEC50 of 7.9 for mouse vas deferens and a Ki of 0.75 nM for binding to rat forebrain membranes.

Urocortin II, mouse, is a selective and potent endogenous peptide agonist for the type-2 corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF2) receptor, displaying K_i values of 0.66 nM for CRFR2 and >100 nM for CRFR1, signifying its high specificity. It engages CRF2 receptors through mechanisms dependent on cAMP/PKA and Ca2+/CaMKII. Additionally, Urocortin II, mouse is localized in specific regions of the central nervous system, influencing central neurons that process visceral sensory information and regulate autonomic functions [1] [2] [3].

Nk-1145 is a parasympathetic drug of the autonomic nervous system, which can cause behavioral stimulation and excitement.

Acetylcholine bromide is the bromide salt of acetylcholine. It is an neurotransmitter found at neuromuscular junctions, autonomic ganglia, parasympathetic effector junctions, a subset of sympathetic effector junctions, and at many sites in the central ner

Trimetaphan camsilate is a drug that counteracts cholinergic transmission at the ganglion type of nicotinic receptors of the autonomic ganglia and therefore blocks both the sympathetic nervous system and the parasympathetic nervous system. It acts as a non-depolarizing competitive antagonist at the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, is short-acting, and is given intravenously.

Amifostine sodium is a phosphorothioate proposed as a radiation-protective agent. It causes splenic vasodilation and may block autonomic ganglia.

Acipimox (K-9321) is a niacin derivative and nicotinic acid analog with activity as a hypolipidemic agent. Acipimox has special application for the treatment of hyperlipidemia in non-insulin-dependent diabetic patients.

Amifostine Hydrate is a radiation protective agent that induces splenic vasodilation and blocks autonomic ganglion.

Oxybutynin R-isomer , also known as Aroxybutynin, is a muscarinic receptor antagonist. Aroxybutynin is the optically avtice inhibitor of proliferation and supresses gene expression in bladder smooth muscle cells. Oxybutynin exerts direct antispasmodic effect on smooth muscle and inhibits the muscarinic action of acetylcholine on smooth muscle. It exhibits one-fifth of the anticholinergic activity of atropine on the rabbit detrusor muscle, but four to ten times the antispasmodic activity. No blocking effects occur at skeletal neuromuscular junctions or autonomic ganglia (antinicotinic effects).

Hexamethonium chloride is a preferential nicotinic receptor blocker at the level of autonomic ganglia. It has been shown to cross the blood-brain barrier only in high doses.

Droxidopa (L-DOPS) is an orally available prodrug of norepinephrine that is used in the treatment of symptomatic orthostatic hypotension due to neurogenic causes of autonomic failure.

Prostaglandin D3 (PGD3) functions as an inhibitor of platelet aggregation and modulates autonomic neurotransmission in humans [1].

Acetylcholine iodide (Acetylcolina) is a neurotransmitter found at neuromuscular junctions, autonomic ganglia, parasympathetic effector junctions, a subset of sympathetic effector junctions, and at many sites in the central nervous system.

Acetylcholine Chloride is the chloride salt form of acetylcholine, a synthetic, quaternary amino alcohol with cholinergic properties. Acetylcholine chloride (Pilofrin) mimics the parasympathomimetic effect of the endogenous compound acetylcholine. Administered as an ophthalmic solution, this drug stimulates the cholinoceptors in the sphincter muscle of the iris, causing the pupil to constrict.
