Doxapram hydrochloride hydrate
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Doxapram hydrochloride hydrate is a respiratory stimulant. Doxapram hydrochloride hydrate increases breathing rate and depth by acting on the brain's respiratory centers and peripheral chemoreceptors. Doxapram hydrochloride hydrate inhibits TASK-1, TASK-3, TASK-1/TASK-3 heterodimeric channel function with EC50s of 410 nM, 37 μM, 9 μM, respectively. Doxapram hydrochloride hydrate inhibits the Ca²⁺-activated potassium current (IC50 ≈ 13 μM) and Ca²⁺-independent potassium current (IC50 ≈ 20 μM) in type I cells of the carotid body. Doxapram hydrochloride hydrate significantly prolongs the effective refractory period of the atrium and has an anti-arrhythmic effect. Doxapram hydrochloride hydrate can be used for the study of respiratory depression such as post-anesthesia respiratory depression, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and apnea of prematurity.

Biological Activity
Doxapram hydrochloride hydrate (0.01-100 μM, 10-30 min) inhibits human and porcine TASK-1 with IC50s of 0.88 and 0.93 μM in human and porcine atrial muscle cells[6].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Doxapram hydrochloride hydrate (> 1 mg/kg, i.v.) stimulates the brainstem respiratory center rather than the peripheral chemoreceptors in dogs[4].
Doxapram hydrochloride hydrate (1-2 mg/kg, i.v., single dose or once daily for 14 days) has a specific anti-arrhythmic effect on the atrium in domestic pigs[6].

-
Animal Model:Acute atrial fibrillation and persistent atrial fibrillation models established in domestic pigs[6]
-
Dosage:1 and 2 mg/kg (single dose) and 2 mg/kg (continuous administration)
-
Administration:Intravenous injection (i.v.), single dose or once daily for 14 days
-
Result:Prolonged the effective refractory period of the atrium (AERP), but has no effect on ventricular repolarization.
Reversed the electrical remodeling associated with AF (increased TASK-1 current and shortened APD) in long-term treatment.
