Activation of capsaicin-sensitive sensory neurons by carvedilol, a nonselective beta-blocker, in spontaneous hypertensive rats.
We performed a study in spontaneous hypertensive rats (SHR) to determine whether carvedilol, a nonselective beta-adrenoceptor antagonist, activates capsaicin-sensitive sensory neurons (CSSNs), thereby promoting the release of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), a neuropeptide with an important role in maintenance of cardiovascular homeostasis. Carvedilol given intravenously at a dose of 0.3...

متن کاملDevelopment of Discriminatory Method for Dissolution of Carvedilol Marketed Formulations
Carvedilol (BCS Class II drug) is a nonselective β-adrenergic blocking agent with α1-blocking activity and it is mainly used in the management of hypertension. Two commercial brands of carvedilol drug, of strength 12.5mg were used for the Invitro dissolution studies. In the present study four dissolution media [pH 1.2 (0.1 N Hcl), pH 4.5 Acetate buffer, pH 6.8 phosphate buffer, and Distilled wa...
متن کاملShogaol-huprine hybrids: dual antioxidant and anticholinesterase agents with β-amyloid and tau anti-aggregating properties.
Multitarget compounds are increasingly being pursued for the effective treatment of complex diseases. Herein, we describe the design and synthesis of a novel class of shogaol-huprine hybrids, purported to hit several key targets involved in Alzheimer's disease. The hybrids have been tested in vitro for their inhibitory activity against human acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase and an...
متن کاملPrevention of skin carcinogenesis by the β-blocker carvedilol.
The stress-related catecholamine hormones and the α- and β-adrenergic receptors (α- and β-AR) may affect carcinogenesis. The β-AR GRK/β-arrestin biased agonist carvedilol can induce β-AR-mediated transactivation of the EGFR. The initial purpose of this study was to determine whether carvedilol, through activation of EGFR, can promote cancer. Carvedilol failed to promote anchorage-independent gr...
