Datasheet Inhibitors / Agonists / Screening Libraries A DRUG SCREENING EXPERT Product Name : Amibegron hydrochloride Catalog Number : T10302 CAS Number : 121524-09-2 Molecular Formula : C22H27Cl2NO4 Molecular Weight : 440.36 Description: Amibegron hydrochloride is a selective β3-adrenoceptor agonist (EC50: 3.5 nM for β-adrenoceptor in rat colon). It has anxiolytic and antidepressant activity. Storage: 2 years -80°C in solvent; 3 years -20°C powder; Receptor (IC50) β-adrenoceptor 499 nM In vitro Activity Amibegron hydrochloride (SR 58611A) is a selective β-adrenoceptor agonist (EC50: 499 nM in rat uterus) [1]. Amibegron hydrochloride shows little effect on β1- and β2-adrenoceptors, 5-HT uptake, noradrenaline (NA) uptake, and dopamine (DA) uptake from rat brain tissue (IC50s: 4.6 and 1.2, 0.58, 2.5 and 3.2 μM). It exhibits no effect on 5-HT1A, 5-HT2, MAO-A, and MAO-B (IC50 > 10 μM) [2]. In vivo Activity Amibegron hydrochloride (0.1 to 0.3 mg/kg, i.p.) potentiates the toxicity produced by yohimbine in mice. Amibegron hydrochloride (0.6 and 2 mg/kg, i.p.) is also active in the learned helplessness model of antidepressant-like activity in rats [2]. Amibegron hydrochloride (3 and 10 mg/kg, p.o.) increases the synthesis of 5-HT and tryptophan (Trp) levels in several rodent brain areas such as cortex, hippocampus, hypothalamus. In addition, Amibegron hydrochloride (10 mg/kg, p.o.) promotes the release of 5-HT in the rat prefrontal cortex. Systemic (3 mg/kg, i.v.) or chronic administration of SR58611A (10 mg/kg, p.o.) does not affect the activity of serotonergic neurons in the rat dorsal raphe nucleus [3]. Reference 1.
