β/α-1 adrenergic receptor
(R)-Carvedilol targets β-adrenergic receptors as a nonselective blocker and α1-adrenergic receptors as a blocker. By blocking these receptors, it reduces sympathetic nervous system activity, leading to decreased heart rate, cardiac output, and blood pressure. Its α1-blocking activity contributes to vasodilation. |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, (R)-Carvedilol is characterized as a nonselective β-adrenergic blocker with α1-blocking activity. It is the optically active R-enantiomer of Carvedilol. Its activity makes it a valuable tool for studying adrenergic receptor function and its role in cardiovascular physiology.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, (R)-Carvedilol is an antihypertensive agent used in the treatment of congestive heart failure. As a nonselective β-blocker with α1-blocking activity, it reduces blood pressure and improves cardiac function. Its efficacy has been demonstrated in clinical studies.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro receptor binding assays for (R)-Carvedilol involve measuring its affinity for β1, β2, and α1 adrenergic receptors. Radioligand binding studies using ³H-CGP12177 (for β) or ³H-prazosin (for α1) are performed on membranes from cells expressing the receptors. Ki values are calculated. Functional assays measure its ability to antagonize agonist-induced signaling.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cell-based assays, cells expressing adrenergic receptors are cultured and treated with (R)-Carvedilol at various concentrations. Receptor antagonism is confirmed by its ability to block agonist-induced cAMP accumulation (for β) or calcium signaling (for α1). Cell viability is assessed by standard assays. Its vasodilating properties can be assessed in isolated vascular ring preparations.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies with (R)-Carvedilol are conducted in models of hypertension and heart failure. The compound is administered orally to animals. Blood pressure and heart rate are measured. Cardiac function is assessed by echocardiography. Its effects on vascular resistance and cardiac remodeling are evaluated.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
(R)-Carvedilol (CAS: 95093-99-5) has a molecular weight of 406.47 g/mol and a molecular formula of C24H26N2O4. Appearance: solid powder. Purity: ≥98%. Synonyms: (+)-Carvedilol. Solubility: DMSO. Storage: powder -20°C 3 years, 4°C 2 years.

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 55.0 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: 5.5 mg/mL (13.53 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with ultrasonication. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 55.0 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. View More

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
