Phentolamine mesylate
Based on 8 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Phentolamine mesylate (Phentolamine methanesulfonate) is a reversible, non-selective, and orally active blocker of α1 and α2 adrenergic receptor that expands blood vessels to reduce peripheral vascular resistance. Phentolamine mesylate can be used for the research of pheochromocytoma-related hypertension, heart failure and erectile dysfunction.

α adrenergic receptor |
Phentolamine (0.1-1 μM) inhibits the response to Clonidine in rat ileum, with the pA2 and pKB of 7.92 and 8.07, respectively[3].
Phentolamine (10-70 μg/mL; 48 h) inhibits proliferation of HDMECs and HBMECs in a dose-dependent manner, with IC50s of 50 μg/mL and 30 μg/mL without toxicity, respectively[4].
Phentolamine (10-20 or 20-40 μg/mL; 12-48 h) signi cantly delays scratch wound closure of HBMECs and HDMECs in a dose-dependent manner[4].
Phentolamine (30 or 50 μg/mL; 4-12 h) inhibits tube formation of HBMECs and HDMECs[4].

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly:
It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
