Apexbio Technology LLC Nepicastat (SYN-117) HCl,5mg CAS# 170151-24-3
Supplier: Apexbio Technology LLC A43325
Nepicastat (SYN-117) HCl is a potent and selective inhibitor of dopamine-β-hydroxylase with IC50 values of 8.5 and 9.0 nM in bovine and human, respectively [1]. Dopamine-β-hydroxylase is an enzyme involved in the synthesis of small-molecule membrane-bound neurotransmitters. Dopamine-β-hydroxylase catalyses the synthesis of noradrenaline [1]. Nepicastat (SYN-117) HCl is a potent and selective dopamine-β-hydroxylase inhibitor. (R)-Nepicastat exhibited 2-3 fold less potent than nepicastat [1]. In beagle dogs and spontaneously hypertensive rats, nepicastat reduced noradrenaline in a dose-dependent way and increased dopamine and dopamine/noradrenaline ratio in cerebral cortex, left ventricle and the artery. In beagle dogs, nepicastat (2 mg/kg) significantly reduced noradrenaline by 52% and increased dopamine by 646% and dopamine/noradrenaline ratio in plasma [1]. Other sizes are also available.
