| Targets |
Ethylnorepinephrine hydrochloride targets adrenergic receptors (alpha- and beta-adrenergic receptors) in the sympathetic nervous system. As a sympathomimetic agent structurally related to norepinephrine, it acts as an agonist at these receptors. Specifically, it has bronchodilator properties, indicating activity at beta2-adrenergic receptors in the lungs. It may also have alpha-adrenergic agonist activity, leading to vasoconstriction and increased blood pressure. The ethyl substitution modulates its receptor selectivity and duration of action compared to norepinephrine.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
As a sympathomimetic, Ethylnorepinephrine hydrochloride would be expected to elicit functional responses in adrenergic receptor-expressing cells, such as increased cAMP production (via beta-adrenoceptors) and calcium mobilization (via alpha-adrenoceptors). The specific IC50 or EC50 values are not provided. The compound has been used as a bronchodilator, indicating that it relaxes bronchial smooth muscle at therapeutic concentrations. The hydrochloride salt enhances aqueous solubility for parenteral administration.
|
| ln Vivo |
Ethylnorepinephrine hydrochloride has been used clinically as a bronchodilator under the trade name Bronkephrine. In animal models, administration would be expected to cause bronchodilation, increased heart rate, and elevation of blood pressure due to activation of beta1- and alpha-adrenergic receptors, respectively. Specific in vivo efficacy data is not provided, but the compound has been used to treat asthma and bronchospasm.

| Enzyme Assay |
Not applicable. Ethylnorepinephrine hydrochloride is a small molecule agonist, not used in cell-free binding assays for routine characterization. However, its affinity for adrenergic receptors can be determined by radioligand binding. Procedure: Membranes from HEK293 cells expressing human beta2-adrenergic receptors (20 ug/well) are incubated with 0.1 nM [3H]-dihydroalprenolol (DHA) and varying concentrations of Ethylnorepinephrine hydrochloride (0.1-1000 nM) in binding buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.4, 10 mM MgCl2, 2 mM EDTA) for 60 minutes at 25degC. Non-specific binding is determined with 10 uM propranolol. Bound radioligand is separated by filtration through GF/B filters and counted. The Ki is calculated from the IC50.
|
| Cell Assay |
Functional adrenergic receptor activation can be assessed in cells expressing beta2-adrenergic receptors using a cAMP accumulation assay. Procedure: CHO-K1 cells stably expressing the human beta2-adrenergic receptor are seeded in 384-well plates (20,000 cells/well). Cells are pre-incubated with 1 mM IBMX (phosphodiesterase inhibitor) for 10 minutes, then treated with varying concentrations of Ethylnorepinephrine hydrochloride (0.1-1000 nM) for 30 minutes at 37degC. The reaction is stopped with lysis buffer, and intracellular cAMP levels are measured using a homogeneous time-resolved fluorescence (HTRF) cAMP detection kit. The EC50 is calculated from the dose-response curve.
|
| Animal Protocol |
The in vivo efficacy as a bronchodilator can be evaluated in a guinea pig model of histamine-induced bronchospasm. Procedure: Male Hartley guinea pigs (300-400 g, n=8 per group) are anesthetized. The trachea is cannulated and connected to a ventilator to measure pulmonary resistance. Bronchospasm is induced by an intravenous injection of histamine (30 ug/kg). Ethylnorepinephrine hydrochloride is dissolved in saline and administered intravenously at doses of 0.1, 0.5, and 1 mg/kg, 5 minutes before histamine challenge. The positive control group receives isoproterenol (1 mg/kg). The reduction in histamine-induced increase in pulmonary resistance is measured. An ED50 for bronchodilation is calculated.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Specific PK data for Ethylnorepinephrine hydrochloride is not provided. As a catecholamine, it is rapidly metabolized by catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) and monoamine oxidase (MAO), resulting in a short plasma half-life (minutes). It is poorly absorbed orally and is administered by inhalation or injection. The compound is stored as a powder at -20degC (3 years) or 4degC (2 years).
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Specific toxicology data for Ethylnorepinephrine hydrochloride is not provided. As a sympathomimetic agent, potential adverse effects include tachycardia, hypertension, cardiac arrhythmias, anxiety, and tremors. Overdose can lead to severe hypertension and cardiac events. Standard safety precautions for handling catecholamines should be followed.

Ethylnorepinephrine hydrochloride is a sympathomimetic amine and bronchodilator structurally related to norepinephrine. It was marketed under the trade name Bronkephrine for the treatment of asthma and bronchospasm. It acts as an agonist at beta2-adrenergic receptors in the lungs, causing bronchodilation, but also has alpha- and beta1-adrenergic agonist activity, which can cause cardiovascular effects. This product is a research chemical and is not intended for clinical use. It is used for research on adrenergic receptor pharmacology and as a reference standard for pharmaceutical analysis. |
