Bioactivity | Carvedilol phosphate hemihydrate (BM 14190 phosphate hemihydrate) is a non-selective β/α-1 blocker[1]. Carvedilol phosphate hemihydrate inhibits lipid peroxidation with an IC50 of 5 μM. Carvedilol phosphate hemihydrate is a multiple action antihypertensive agent with potential use in angina and congestive heart failure[2]. Carvedilol phosphate hemihydrate is an autophagy inducer that inhibits the NLRP3 inflammasome[3]. |
Target | β/α-1 adrenergic receptorIC50: 5 μM (lipid peroxidation)Autophagy |
Invitro | Superoxide generation by activated human neutrophils in vitro is inhibited by Carvedilol with an IC50 of 28 μM. Carvedilol is shown to scavenge oxygen free radicals in a cell-free system with an IC50 of 25 μM[2]. |
