Biological Activity
| Targets | β2 adrenoreceptor |
| ln Vitro |
Fenoterol (1 μM; pre-incubated 30 minutes) treatment significantly downregulates the elevated phosphorylation levels of AMPK and reduces AICAR-induced NF-κB activation, TNF-α release, and AMPK activation[2]. Fenoterol suppresses the production of inflammatory cytokines and AMPK activation caused by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in THP-1 cells[2]. Fenoterol is also a strong inducer of exosome biogenesis and/or secretion in PC cells[4]. |
| ln Vivo | Fenoterol hydrobromide (0.7 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; twice a day; for 3 weeks) suppresses mechanical allodynia during chronic treatment[3]. |
| Cell Assay |
Cell Line: THP-1 cells stimulated with AICAR Concentration: 1 μM Incubation Time: Pre-incubated 30 minutes Result: Significantly downregulated the elevated phosphorylation levels of AMPK. |
| Animal Protocol |
Male C57BL/6J mice (6 weeks old) with neuropathy 0.7 mg/kg Intraperitoneal injection; twice a day; for 3 weeks |

| Additional Infomation |
Fenoterol hydrobromide is the hydrobromide salt of fenoterol. A beta2-adrenergic agonist, it is used as a bronchodilator in the management of reversible airway obstruction. It has a role as a bronchodilator agent, a beta-adrenergic agonist and a sympathomimetic agent. It contains a fenoterol. Fenoterol Hydrobromide is fenoterol BromideThe hydrobromide salt of fenoterol, a short-acting sympathomimetic agent with bronchodilator activity. Fenoterol stimulates beta-2-adrenergic receptors in the lungs, thereby activating the enzyme adenylate cyclase that catalyzes the conversion of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to cyclic-3',5'-adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). Increased cAMP concentrations relax bronchial smooth muscle, relieve bronchospasms, and reduce inflammatory cell mediator release, especially from mast cells. A synthetic adrenergic beta-2 agonist that is used as a bronchodilator and tocolytic. |
Solubility Data
| Solubility (In Vitro) |
DMSO: ≥ 100 mg/mL (~260.2 mM) H2O: ~25 mg/mL (~65.1 mM) |

Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.51 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.51 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C，1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 3: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.51 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly. Solubility in Formulation 4: 60 mg/mL (156.14 mM) in PBS (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution; with ultrasonication. (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
