Flavoxate hydrochloride
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Flavoxate hydrochloride (Rec-7-0040; DW61) is an orally active L-type Ca2+ channel inhibitor and antispasmodic. Flavoxate hydrochloride inhibits cyclic adenosine monophosphate production by blocking voltage-dependent inward Ba2+ currents, regulating the brainstem micturition center, and stimulating G protein-coupled receptors. Consequently, Flavoxate hydrochloride induces relaxation of bladder smooth muscle and inhibits isovolumetric rhythmic contractions. Flavoxate hydrochloride effectively increases bladder capacity and alleviates symptoms of urgent urination frequency and pollakiuria caused by overactive bladder. Flavoxate hydrochloride can be used in research on overactive bladder and related voiding dysfunctions.

Flavoxate hydrochloride (100 nM-30 μM) causes concentration-dependent relaxation of K+-precontracted human detrusor muscle strips, with an IC50 of 2 μM[1].
Flavoxate hydrochloride (10-30 μM; 5 minutes) inhibits voltage-dependent, nifedipine-sensitive Ba2+ currents (L-type Ca2+ channel currents) in freshly isolated human detrusor myocytes in a voltage- and concentration-dependent manner, with a Ki value of 10 μM at a holding potential of -60 mV and 56 μM at a holding potential of -90 mV[1].
Flavoxate hydrochloride (1-30 μM; 22°C, 30°C, 37°C) inhibits voltage-dependent inward Ba2+ currents through L-type Ca2+ channels in human detrusor muscle cells in a concentration-dependent and temperature-sensitive manner, with enhanced efficacy at higher temperatures (Ki=10.3 μM at 22°C, Ki=5.1 μM at 30°C, Ki=4.6 μM at 37°C), and shifts the steady-state inactivation curve leftward at 30°C[2].
Flavoxate hydrochloride (10-8-10-5 M; 15 min) concentration-dependently inhibits cAMP production in membrane preparations from rat striatum and cerebral cortex via pertussis toxin-sensitive G1-coupled receptors; its inhibitory effect at 10-6 M is completely reversed by combined treatment with any two of adenosine A1, dopamine D2, or adrenergic α2 receptor antagonists[3].
Flavoxate hydrochloride (10-8-10-4 M) binds to rat adenosine A1, adrenergic α2, dopamine D2, and muscarinic M2 receptors with Ki values in the micromolar to submicromolar range, but shows negligible affinity for many other neurotransmitter receptors[3].
