Levonordefrin
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Levonordefrin ((-)-Cobefrin; (-)-α-Methylnoradrenaline; (-)-Nordefrin) is an α-adrenergic receptor agonist with blood pressure regulatory properties. Levonordefrin is a key metabolite responsible for the hypotensive effect of α-methyldopa. By stimulating central α-adrenergic receptors in the nucleus tractus solitarius region of the medulla oblongata, Levonordefrin induces centrally mediated hypotension and bradycardia. When administered intravenously, Levonordefrin increases mean arterial blood pressure in a dose-dependent manner. Levonordefrin is applicable for research on the pathophysiology of hypertension and drug metabolism.

Animal Model:Wistar rats (male, 200-250 g, anesthetized with urethane)[2]
-
Dosage:5.8 nmol; 23.0 nmol; 92.0 nmol; 23.0 nmol (post-Phentolamine pre-treatment)
-
Administration:bilateral microinjection into nucleus tractus solitarii; 0.6 μL over 30 seconds; 23.0 nmol (10 minutes after phentolamine microinjection)
-
Result:Caused a maximum mean blood pressure decrease of -16 ± 2 mm Hg and heart rate decrease of -27 ± 11 bpm at 5 minutes, with effects resolved by 30 minutes (blood pressure +1 ± 26 mm Hg, heart rate +42 ± 26 bpm) at 5.8 nmol.
Caused sustained, statistically significant (p < 0.01) decreases in mean blood pressure and heart rate through 30 minutes: -33 ± 6 mm Hg/-56 ± 14 bpm at 5 minutes, -33 ± 6 mm Hg/-66 ± 7 bpm at 10 minutes, -23 ± 5 mm Hg/-43 ± 7 bpm at 20 minutes, -15 ± 4 mm Hg/-28 ± 9 bpm at 30 minutes at 23.0 nmol.
Caused sustained, statistically significant (p < 0.01) decreases in mean blood pressure and heart rate through 30 minutes: -39 ± 5 mm Hg/-38 ± 7 bpm at 5 minutes, -43 ± 4 mm Hg/-75 ± 11 bpm at 10 minutes, -32 ± 3 mm Hg/-86 ± 11 bpm at 20 minutes, -20 ± 3 mm Hg/-74 ± 14 bpm at 30 minutes at 92.0 nmol.
Produced maximum changes of +31 ± 6 mm Hg (blood pressure) and +27 ± 9 bpm (heart rate) within 2 minutes when 23.0 nmol was administered 10 minutes after prior phentolamine microinjection, completely preventing and reversing hypotensive and bradycardic effects.

Solvent & Solubility
DMSO : 50 mg/mL (272.91 mM; Need ultrasonic; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
H2O : 5 mg/mL (27.29 mM; ultrasonic and warming and adjust pH to 1 with HCl and heat to 60°C)
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.
* Note: If you choose water as the stock solution, please dilute it to the working solution, then filter and sterilize it with a 0.22 μm filter before use.
