Gene Information

Application

(−)-Isoproterenol (+)-bitartrate salt has been used:
  • as a component in KRH medium for cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) assay
  • to stimulate preadipocytes to study its concentration responsive curve
  • to intraperitoneally administer to mice to evaluate whether the multi-dry-electrode plate (MDEP)-sensor system can assess drug responses

Biochem/physiol Actions

Isoproterenol functions as an ovine pulmonary vein dilator.
β-Adrenoceptor agonist; increases cytosolic cAMP.
