A 61603 hydrobromide

Uses

A 61603 is a selective α1A-adrenergic receptor agonist.

Biological Activity

Potent α -adrenoceptor agonist that is at least 35-fold more potent at α 1A than at α 1B or α 1D sites. Induces dose response increases in spontaneous Ca 2+ transients in rat ventricular myocytes in vitro (EC 50 = 6.9 nmol/L). Also available as part of the α 1 -Adrenoceptor Tocriset™ .

IC 50

α1A-adrenergic receptor

storage

Desiccate at +4°C
