Description

Guanabenz is an orally active α-2-adrenoceptor agonist. Guanabenz has antihypertensive effect and antiparasitic activity. Guanabenz interferes ER stress-signalling and has protective effects in cardiac myocytes. Guanabenz also is used for the research of high blood pressure[1][2][3].

In Vitro

Guanabenz (0.5-50 μM, 24 h) is treated with increasing concentrations for 24 hours not affect cell viability[1].
Guanabenz (0.5-50 μM, 24 h) alone not affects the UPR targets, neither on mRNA or protein level nor the phosphorylation status of eIF2a. Guanabenz also not induces GADD34 or the constitutively active form CReP[1].
Guanabenz (0.5-50 μM, 24 h) alone not induces ER stress in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

Guanabenz (5 mg/kg/day; i.p.; for 3 weeks) can reproducibly reduce brain cyst burden[2].
Guanabenz (5 mg /kg/d, i.p., oral; 10 mg/kg/d, gavage; for 3 weeks) reverses Toxoplasma-induced hyperactivity in latently infected mice[2].
Guanabenz (100 and 320 μg/kg and 1 mg/kg, i.v., over a period of 5 min at intervals of 40 min) reduces sympathetic outflow, heart rate and blood pressure in debuffered cats[3].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
