Product Description
Adrenalone is an adrenergic agonist that works as a local vasoconstrictor and hemostatic agent. Adrenalone is a dopamine beta oxidase inhibitor. Adrenalone is structurally similar to the norepinephrine transporter (NET) ligand, with IC50 of 36.9 μM.
Adrenalone (CAS 99-45-6) is a synthetic catecholamine derivative and the ketone form of epinephrine, functioning primarily as an alpha-1 adrenergic receptor agonist. It is an adrenergic agonist used as a topical vasoconstrictor and hemostatic agent. Adrenalone is also an inhibitor of dopamine β-oxidase and is chemically similar to known norepinephrine transporter (NET) ligands with an IC50 of 36.9 μM. Its molecular formula is C9H11NO3, and its molecular weight is 181.19 g/mol.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Alpha-1 adrenergic receptor; dopamine β-oxidase; norepinephrine transporter (NET). Adrenalone is an alpha-1 adrenergic receptor agonist, causing vasoconstriction and hemostasis when applied topically. It is also an inhibitor of dopamine β-oxidase and binds to the norepinephrine transporter with an IC50 of 36.9 μM.
ln Vitro
adrenaline, the ketone form of the natural substrate adrenaline, is a local nasal decongestant, hemostatic, and vasoconstrictor [1]. Dopamine beta-oxidase activity is inhibited by epinephrine. Substrate transport in NETs is inhibited by epinephrine [2].
Adrenalone acts as an alpha-1 adrenergic receptor agonist in vitro, causing vasoconstriction. It inhibits dopamine β-oxidase activity and binds to the norepinephrine transporter with an IC50 of 36.9 μM. The compound's potency and efficacy have been characterized in various receptor binding and functional assays.
ln Vivo
In vivo, Adrenalone is used as a topical vasoconstrictor and hemostatic agent. It is applied locally to reduce bleeding and vascular congestion. The compound's vasoconstrictive effects are mediated through alpha-1 adrenergic receptor activation. It is chemically similar to epinephrine but has different pharmacokinetic properties.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro receptor binding assays for Adrenalone involve competition binding experiments using radiolabeled ligands such as [3H]-prazosin for alpha-1 adrenergic receptors. Membranes are prepared from cells expressing the alpha-1 receptor. Adrenalone is incubated at varying concentrations, and bound radioactivity is measured. Ki values are calculated from displacement curves. NET binding assays can also be performed.
Cell Assay
Cellular assays for Adrenalone involve culturing cells expressing alpha-1 adrenergic receptors. Cells are treated with Adrenalone at varying concentrations (typically 0.1-100 µM). Calcium mobilization is measured using fluorescent indicators. The compound's agonist activity is assessed by its ability to increase intracellular calcium levels. Dopamine β-oxidase inhibition assays can be performed using cell lysates or purified enzyme.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for Adrenalone are typically conducted in rodent models to assess its vasoconstrictive and hemostatic effects. The compound is applied topically, and bleeding time or vascular diameter is measured. Dosing regimens vary depending on the study objectives. The compound is not typically administered systemically.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Adrenalone has a molecular weight of 181.19 g/mol and a molecular formula of C9H11NO3. Its chemical name is 1-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-2-(methylamino)ethanone hydrochloride. The compound is soluble in water and should be stored at room temperature protected from light. It is available with a purity of ≥98%. Detailed pharmacokinetic parameters are not extensively documented.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Adrenalone is generally well-tolerated when used as a topical agent. Systemic absorption is minimal. The compound may cause local irritation or allergic reactions. It is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to adrenergic agents. The compound is not approved for systemic use. Standard safety precautions should be taken when handling the compound.
