Oxyfedrine
Oxyfedrine, a vasodilator, is an orally active β-adrenoreceptor agonist. Oxyfedrine decreases the tonicity of coronary vessels. Oxyfedrine can be used in the research of cardiovascular disease.

Biological Activity
|
β-adrenoceptor |
Oxyfedrine (50 μM, 48 h) suppresses aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity in HCT116 and HSC-4 cells[1].
Oxyfedrine (50 μM, 48 h) acts as a sensitizer for GSH-depleting agents, and induces cell death in HCT116 and HSC-4 cells when with the drug combinations[1].
Oxyfedrine (0-1 μg/mL) inhibits spontaneous myogenic activity in rat isolated portal vein[4].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Oxyfedrine (10 mg/kg, i.p., HCT116 cell xenograft mice) suppresses tumor growth when combined with sulfasalazine (SSZ, 350 mg/kg, i.p.)[1].
Oxyfedrine (1 mg/kg, i.v.) decreases the arterial and venous blood high blood viscosity (HBV) in ice water stress rats[3].
