Gene Information

Application

Isoetharine mesylate salt has been used:
  • as an adrenergic drug to test its effect on embryo implantation in 4-day pregnant mice
  • as a substrate for recombinant human sulfotransferase (SULT) in SULT assay to monitor conjugation reaction
  • as a β-2 agonist in collision-induced dissociation (CID) mass spectrometry analysis

Biochem/physiol Actions

Isoetharine is an agonist for β-adrenergic receptors and is a bronchodilator. It is a catecholic drug metabolized by sulfotransferases and is present in human urine and plasma as a sulfated metabolite. Catechol O-methyltransferase (COMT) also mediates the methylation of isoetharine in the metabolic conjugation pathway.

In anesthetized sheep, we measured bronchial blood flow (Qbr) by an ultrasonic flow probe to investigate the interaction between inhaled nitric oxide (NO; 100 parts/million) given for 5 min and 5 ml of aerosolized isoetharine (1.49 x 10(-2) M concentration).

We studied the dose-dependent effects of inhaled isoetharine HCl, a beta-adrenergic bronchodilator (2.5, 5.0, 10.0, and 20.0 mg), on bronchial blood flow (Qbr) in anesthetized sheep. Isoetharine resulted in a dose-dependent increase in Qbr. With a total dose of 17.5
