Product Description
Tolonidine is an analogue of imidazoline. Tolonidine is orally bioavailable and has hypotensive and anti-hypertensive (blood pressure lowering) effects.
Tolonidine is a centrally acting antihypertensive agent. It is an imidazoline receptor agonist, similar to moxonidine and rilmenidine. Tolonidine functions as an alpha-adrenergic receptor agonist. Structurally related to clonidine, it modulates the circulatory system by acting on central and peripheral alpha-adrenergic receptors. Tolonidine is orally bioavailable and has hypotensive and anti-hypertensive effects.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Alpha-adrenergic receptors and imidazoline receptors. Tolonidine is an imidazoline receptor agonist and alpha-adrenergic receptor agonist.
ln Vitro
In vitro, Tolonidine is characterized as an imidazoline receptor agonist and alpha-adrenergic receptor agonist. It is structurally related to clonidine.
ln Vivo
Intravenous tolonidine reduces peripheral vascular resistance, lowers aortic blood flow, and decreases the amplitude of ventricular contractions in dogs under anesthesia [1]. Tolonidine generates a sustained rise in blood pressure without subsequent hypotension in doubly denervated rats, indicating that it may have peripheral sympathomimetic effects [1].
In vivo, Tolonidine is orally bioavailable and has hypotensive and anti-hypertensive effects. Intravenous tolonidine reduces peripheral vascular resistance, lowers aortic blood flow, and decreases the amplitude of ventricular contractions in anesthetized dogs. It shows efficacy in lowering blood pressure by reducing vascular resistance and heart rate.
Enzyme Assay
Non-cell receptor binding assays for Tolonidine are performed using membrane preparations from tissues expressing alpha-adrenergic or imidazoline receptors. Radioligand binding studies are conducted using [³H]clonidine or [³H]idazoxan as tracers. Membranes are incubated with the radioligand and varying concentrations of Tolonidine (0.001-100 μM). Nonspecific binding is determined with excess unlabeled clonidine or idazoxan. After incubation at 25°C for 60 minutes, bound and free ligand are separated by filtration, and radioactivity is counted. Ki values are calculated from competition curves.
Cell Assay
Cellular assays for Tolonidine are performed using cells expressing alpha-adrenergic receptors or imidazoline receptors. Cells are treated with Tolonidine at concentrations ranging from 0.01-100 μM. Receptor activation is measured by inhibition of forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation (for alpha-2 receptors) or by calcium mobilization. EC₅₀ values for receptor activation are calculated from dose-response curves.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies are conducted in rodent or canine models. Tolonidine is administered intravenously or orally at doses determined from pharmacokinetic studies. Blood pressure, heart rate, and peripheral vascular resistance are measured. Aortic blood flow and ventricular contraction amplitude are assessed. The compound's antihypertensive efficacy is evaluated.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Tolonidine has a molecular weight of 209.68 and a molecular formula of C10H12ClN3. It is orally bioavailable. The compound is an imidazoline receptor agonist and alpha-adrenergic receptor agonist.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Comprehensive toxicology data for Tolonidine are limited. As a centrally acting antihypertensive agent, potential adverse effects may include sedation, dry mouth, and bradycardia. No significant organ-specific toxicity has been reported at effective doses.

  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
