Clonidine

Clonidine
Clonidine (Kapvay) is a centrally active alpha-adrenergic agonist used predominantly as an antihypertensive agent, usually in combination with other agents. Despite wide-scale use for many years, clonidine has not been linked definitively to either serum aminotransferase elevations or clinically apparent liver injury.

Product Introduction

Bioactivity
Description
Clonidine (Kapvay) is a centrally active alpha-adrenergic agonist used predominantly as an antihypertensive agent, usually in combination with other agents. Despite wide-scale use for many years, clonidine has not been linked definitively to either serum aminotransferase elevations or clinically apparent liver injury.
In vitro
Clonidine (0.01, 0.1 or 1 μM) significantly induces CGRP (α and β) mRNA expression in a dose-dependent manner in endothelial cells. Clonidine treatment (1 μM) for 24 h significantly increases the NO level in endothelial cells. NO pathway modulates CGRP production induced by clonidine [2].
In vivo
Clonidine (3-50 μg/kg, i.p.) potently suppresses dopamine efflux in the prefrontal cortex induced by PCP. Pretreatment with the alpha-2A receptor antagonist (BRL-44408) prevents clonidine from suppressing PCP-induced dopamine overflow in the prefrontal cortex [3]. Clonidine (50 μg/kg, i.p.) induces a significant decrease in body temperature of rat lasting 3 hr, with the maximum at 1 hr after administration. An intracerebroventricular pretreatment of rats with neutral doses of phentolamine 15 min before clonidine considerably antagonizes the clonidine-induced hypothermia[1]. In DMSO-pretreated SO rats, clonidine (0.6 μg i.c.) has no effect on blood pressure. However, after central adenosine A1R blockade (DPCPX) in SO rats, clonidine significantly (P < 0.05, one-way ANOVA) reduces blood pressure. In contrast, in DMSO-pretreated ABD rats, clonidine (0.6 μg i.c.) causes a significant reduction in blood pressure; importantly, central A1R blockade (DPCPX pretreatment) does not influence (P > 0.05, one-way ANOVA) clonidine-evoked reduction in blood pressure in ABD rats. In DPCPX-pretreated SO rats and along with the appearance of the hypotensive response, clonidine causes a significant (P < 0.05) increase in the RVLM pERK1/2 level compared with basal or clonidine treatment in DMSO-pretreated SO rats. In a vehicle (DMSO)-pretreated ABD rats, clonidine significantly (P < 0.05) enhances RVLM pERK1/2, and this response is not affected by DPCPX pretreatment [4].

In Vivo Formulation Calculator (Clear solution)

Please enter your animal experiment information in the following box and click Calculate to obtain the mother liquor preparation method and in vivo formula preparation method:
TargetMol | Animal experimentsFor example, your dosage is 10 mg/kg Each animal weighs 20 g, and the dosage volume is 100 μL . TargetMol | Animal experiments A total of 10 animals were administered, and the formula you used is 5% TargetMol | reagent DMSO+30% PEG300+5% Tween 80+60% ddH2O. So your working solution concentration is 2 mg/mL。
Mother liquor preparation method: 2 mg of drug dissolved in 50 μL DMSOTargetMol | reagent (mother liquor concentration of 40 mg/mL), if you need to configure a concentration that exceeds the solubility of the product, please contact us first.
Preparation method for in vivo formula: Take 50 μL DMSOTargetMol | reagent main solution, add 300 μLPEG300TargetMol | reagent mix well and clarify, then add 50 more μL Tween 80, mix well and clarify, then add 600 more μLddH2OTargetMol | reagent mix well and clarify
