Bioactivity | Isoxsuprine hydrochloride is a beta-adrenergic receptor agonist with Kis of 13.65 μΜ and 3.48 μΜ for myometrial and placcntal beta-adrenergic receptor, respectively. Isoxsuprine hydrochloride is also a NMDA receptor antagonist. |
Invitro | Results show that Isoxsuprine hydrochloride inhibits circular chemorepellent induced defect (CCID) formation dose dependently (5 to 60 μM) and also inhibits 12(S)-HETE synthesis. Furthermore, Isoxsuprine hydrochloride is the only drug inhibiting the induction of all three mobility markers (MLC2, MYPT and paxillin)[2]. |
In Vivo | Total infarct volume in vehicle-treated animals is 279±25 mm3 compare to 137±18 mm3 in Isoxsuprine hydrochloride-treated animals[3]. |
