MedKoo CAT#: 318083

CAS#: 32780-64-6 (HCl)

Description: Labetalol is a mixed alpha/beta adrenergic antagonist that is used to treat high blood pressure. It can be given intravenously in severe hypertensive situations, or by mouth for long term hypertension management. Studies suggest that the pharmacokinetics of labetalol are significantly affected by the common CYP2C19 polymorphisms.

Product Data:
Biological target: Labetalol hydrochloride is a mixed alpha/beta adrenergic antagonist that is used to treat high blood pressure.
In vitro activity: On the other hand, results obtained by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that labetalol alters the normal biconcave form of erythrocytes to stomatocytes and knizocytes (cells with one or more cavities, respectively). Reference: Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 2018 Sep 3;503(1):209-214. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29879427/
In vivo activity: Chronic labetalol treatment (10 mg kg-1, s.c., twice daily) during the first 10 days of life in rat brain significantly increased alpha 1-adrenoceptor binding in the hypothalamus (+39%), but not in the occipital cortex. Reference: Br J Pharmacol. 1992 Jan;105(1):37-44. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1596689/
