Coluracetam enhances high-affinity choline uptake (HACU) which is the rate limiting step of acetylcholine (ACh) synthesis, and is the only known choline uptake enhancer to currently exist. Studies have shown Coluracetam to improve learning impairment on a single oral dose given to rats which have been exposed to cholinergic neurotoxins. Subsequent studies have shown that it may induce long-lasting procognitive effects by changing the choline transporter regulation system.

Coluracetam is a nootropic supplement that is marketed as being able to enhance mental functioning. Nootropics are a class of supplements that have positive effects on the brain, such as relieving anxiety, enhancing cognitive abilities and boosting motivation.
Coluracetam (also known as MKC-231) is, as stated earlier, a nootropic supplement that is designed to boost mental function. It is in the class of nootropics called racetams, which all have similar effects on the brain and all share similar chemical structures.
