Guanoxabenz hydrochloride (Hydroxyguanabenz) is an α2 adrenergic receptor agonist with a Ki of 4000 nM and a fully activated form of 40 nM for an α2A adrenoceptor.
- Guanoxabenz is known as a centrally active antihypertensive drug.
- High affinity Guanoxabenz binding is induced in rat brain membranes after the addition of NADH or NADPH cofactors.
- The rat cerebral cortex contains an enzymatic activity that may activate Guanoxabenz, leading to the formation of a metabolite with high affinity for alpha 2-adrenoceptors.
- Guanoxabenz (0.1-3 mg/kg, i.p.) causes a dose-related reduction in locomotor activity.
- A dose of 1 mg/kg induces pronounced and sustained behavioral hypoactivity in rats.
