MedKoo CAT#: 525613

CAS#: 5874-97-5 (sulfate)

Description: Metaproterenol, also known as Th-152 and Orciprenaline, is used for asthmatic children with therapeutic serum theophylline concentrations. In the recommended doses, metaproterenol can improve pulmonary function in asthmatic children who have abnormal pulmonary function while being maintained on theophylline.

Biological target: Metaproterenol hemisulfate (Orciprenaline hemisulfate) is a β2-adrenergic receptor (β2AR) agonist with an IC50 of 68 nM.
In vitro activity: In-vitro, β-adrenergic agonists (epinephrine or metaproterenol) and prostaglandin-E2 markedly increased MDA-MB-231HM secretion of the pro-metastatic factors IL-6, IL-8, and VEGF, whereas cortisol reduced their secretion, effects that were maintained even 12 h after the washout of these agonists. Reference: Brain Behav Immun. 2023 Jan 13;109:175-187. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36646396/
In vivo activity: The aim of this study was to determine the α1-adrenoceptor antagonist activity of terbutaline and its structurally close resorcinol, orciprenaline, in rat isolated small mesenteric arteries set up for myography. Concentration-response curves to methoxamine were competitively antagonised by terbutaline (30-300 μM) or orciprenaline (30-300 μM) with a pKB of 4.70 ± 0.09 or 4.79 ± 0.17, respectively.
