Dihydralazine sulfate
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Dihydralazine sulfate is an antihypertensive hydrazine derivative and also a low-potency genotoxic agent. Dihydralazine sulfate is a direct-acting mutagen with a mixed gene mutation mechanism, which induces DNA fragmentation in the lung, kidney and spleen of mice, and induces sister chromatid exchange in mouse bone marrow cells. Dihydralazine sulfate specifically kills DNA repair-deficient bacteria. Dihydralazine sulfate is a vasodilator and antihypertensive agent that reduces systemic vascular resistance, increases cardiac output and heart rate, thereby lowering blood pressure. Dihydralazine sulfate can be used in research related to hypertension and severe early-onset preeclampsia.

Biological Activity
Dihydralazine sulfate (1 mg per plate, up to 14 μmol; standard Ames test incubation period) acts as a low-potency direct-acting mutagen in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA100, TA97, TA1537, TA98, and TA1538[1].
Dihydralazine sulfate (5 mg (17.4 μmol) per spot; 24 h) is preferentially lethal to DNA repair-deficient Escherichia coli strains CM871 and TM1080, but not to excision repair-deficient WP2uvrA, indicating it induces DNA damage repaired primarily by recA recombination and lexA post-replication repair pathways[1].
Dihydralazine sulfate exhibits preferential lethality to DNA repair-deficient Escherichia coli strains WP67 and CM871, with MIC values of 12.5 μg for both strains without S-9 mix[1].

Dihydralazine sulfate (0.1-2 mg/kg; intravenous injection; single dose) inhibited hemorrhagic hypotension in rats with renal hypertension (RHR) and spontaneous hypertension (SHR) without a decrease in cerebral blood flow (CBF)[1].
