Cytisine (CAS: 485-35-8) is a naturally occurring alkaloid found in several Fabaceae (legume family) plants such as Laburnum anagyroides and Cytisus laburnum. It is a well-known partial agonist of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) and has been extensively used in pharmaceutical and biomedical research as a nicotine substitute and neuropharmacological model compound.
Due to its structural similarity to nicotine, Cytisine has shown significant potential in smoking cessation therapy and neuroscience research. It modulates central cholinergic transmission, exhibits neuroprotective properties, and serves as a valuable lead compound for the design of novel nicotinic receptor ligands.
Our Cytisine is supplied with ≥98% purity (HPLC), accompanied by full analytical documentation (COA, HPLC, MS, NMR) to ensure reproducibility and reliability in research applications.
