Rauwolscine hydrochloride 是一种高选择性的 α2 adrenergic 受体拮抗剂,Ki=12 nM。
产品描述
Rauwolscine, a natural alkaloid, is a specific and reversible α2-adrenergic receptor antagonist (Ki: 12 nM) [1]. It is a stereoisomer of yohimbine, which potently antagonizes both α1- and α2-adrenergic receptors [1]. Rauwolscine also acts as a receptor antagonist at the serotonin 5-HT2B receptor (Ki: 14.3 nM) and as a weak partial agonist at 5-HT1A (IC50: 1.3 μM) [3]. The α2-adrenergic receptor has diverse physiological functions and antagonists like rauwolscine have numerous applications, including the modulation of mood and behavior [5].
体外活性
[3H]Rauwolscine binding to the α2 adrenergic receptor is reversible, stcreospccific, and saturable. [3H]Rauwolscine specifically labels both the high and low-affinity states of the α2 adrenergic receptor in brain membranes[1]. [3H]Rauwolscine also behaves as a 5-HT1A receptor agonist, indicating that rauwolscine (as well as yohimbine) has agonistic properties at the level of 5-HT autoreceptors[2]. When using [3H]5-HT as a radioligand, rauwolscine is determined to have a relatively high affinity for the human receptor (Ki: 14.3/35.8 nM, for human and rat)[3]. Saturation studies show that the affinity of [3H]Rauwolscine is similar in mouse, rabbit, rat, dog (2.33-3.03 nM) except man where it is significantly higher (0.98 nM) [4].
激酶实验
Fresh bovine frontal cortex is incubated in triplicate with [3H]Rauwolscine (82 Ci/mM, diluted). Incubation is terminated by filtration under reduced pressure over filters, which are then rinsed with ice-cold Tris-HCl buffer, dried overnight and added to disposable glass mini vials containing 3.0 mL of a 95% Econofluor/5% Protocol solution. Samples are counted by liquid scintillation spectrometry with an efficiency of 32%. (-)- [3H]Epinephrine binding to bovine cortex membranes is conducted at 25°C[1].
