Product Description
Clenbuterol (Planipart; NAB-365) Hydrochloride is a potent β2-adrenoceptor agonist with bronchodilating and fat burning properties. It has been used as a bronchodilator in the treatment of pulmonary diseases such as asthma. At higher doses, clenbuterol acts as an anabolic steroid, favoring skeletal muscle protein synthesis at the expense of fat deposition.
Clenbuterol hydrochloride is a selective β2-adrenergic agonist. It is a hydrochloride salt with a molecular formula of C12H18Cl2N2O·HCl and a molecular weight of 313.65. Clenbuterol enhances skeletal muscle strength and hypertrophy, induces growth factor mRNA, activates astrocytes, and protects rat brain tissue against ischemic damage. It is also a bronchodilator, effective in improving peak expiratory flow rate in asthma patients.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)

Clenbuterol is assessed in cell-based assays using various cell lines. MTS assay is performed to determine the number of viable cells in culture. Cells are treated with 0, 0.1, or 1 μM Clenbuterol for 6, 12, 24, or 48 h. Its effects on lipolysis are measured in rat primary adipocytes by assessing free glycerol release.
Targets
Clenbuterol targets the β2-adrenergic receptor. It acts as an agonist, binding to beta-2 adrenergic receptors on smooth muscle cells, leading to the activation of adenylate cyclase and subsequent increase in intracellular levels of cyclic AMP. It activates the protein kinase A pathway, regulating gene expression and protein synthesis. It has an EC50 of 31.9 nM.
ln Vitro
In rat primary adipocytes, clenbuterol enhances lipolysis in contrast to control. In cultures with 0.1 or 1 μM clenbuterol, respectively, free glycerol release into the culture media is 158% and 190% of control values[1].
In vitro, Clenbuterol increases lipolysis in rat primary adipocytes, with free glycerol release reaching 158% and 190% of control values at 0.1 and 1 μM, respectively. It inhibits the release of TNF-α and IL-1β induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). It is used in cell-based assays to study β2-adrenergic receptor signaling and its effects on cellular metabolism.
ln Vivo
Seven days after the middle cerebral artery is permanently blocked, the cortical infarct volume of male Long-Evans rats is assessed using clenbuterol hydrochloride (0.01-0.5 mg/kg)[2].
In vivo, Clenbuterol (0.01-0.5 mg/kg; i.p.) reduces the cortical infarct volume in Long-Evans rats as measured 7 days after permanent occlusion of the middle cerebral artery. It exhibits neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory activities. It also decreases adipose cell size and increases muscle fiber size.
Enzyme Assay
Clenbuterol is evaluated in cell-free receptor binding assays to determine its affinity for β2-adrenergic receptors. Radioligand binding displacement assays are performed using membrane preparations expressing β2-AR. Competition binding experiments are conducted with increasing concentrations of Clenbuterol and a fixed concentration of a labeled reference ligand.
Cell Assay
MTS assay is performed to determine the number of viable cells in culture. Cells are treated with 0 (vehicle only), 0.1, or 1 μM Clenbuterol for 6, 12, 24, or 48 h. The absorbance is measured at 490 nm in a plate reader determine the formazan concentration, which is proportional to the number of living cells in culture[1].
Animal Protocol
Clenbuterol is administered orally or intraperitoneally in animal models. In rats, it is administered via drinking water (30 mg/L) for 3 weeks. In stroke models, it is given at 0.01-0.5 mg/kg i.p.. Efficacy is assessed by measuring infarct volume, muscle mass, and behavioral outcomes.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Clenbuterol is orally active and is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. It has a molecular weight of 313.65 and a molecular formula of C12H18Cl2N2O·HCl. Its CAS number is 21898-19-1. The compound is soluble in DMSO at 83.33 mg/mL. It should be stored at 4°C, sealed, and away from moisture.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
No detailed toxicity data is available for Clenbuterol beyond its known use as a bronchodilator. It is classified as a Dangerous Good for transport. It is a β2-adrenergic agonist and is available by prescription only.

Additional Infomation
Clenbuterol hydrochloride is the monohydrochloride salt of clenbuterol. It is a bronchodilator, β-adrenergic agonist, and sympathomimetic agent. It contains clenbuterol(1+), a substituted phenylaminoethanol that has β-2-adrenergic agonist activity at very low doses. It is used to treat bronchodilation in the treatment of asthma. See also: Clenbuterol (containing the active fraction).
Clenbuterol is also known as NAB-365. It is a selective β2-adrenergic agonist with bronchodilator and muscle-building properties. It is used in research to study β2-adrenergic receptor signaling, muscle hypertrophy, and neuroprotection. The compound is not approved for human use in some countries.
