[ Name ]:
BODIPY FL prazosin

Biological Activity

[Description]:

BODIPY FL prazosin is a fluorescent α1-adrenergic antagonist with Ki values of 14.5, 43.3 nM for α1a-AR and α1b-AR, respectively. BODIPY FL prazosin also is a fluorescent ligand with the excitation and emission wavelengths are 485 and 535 nm, respectively. BODIPY FL prazosin can be used for study the differences in the subcellular localization of α1-adrenoceptor subtypes[1][2][3].

α1A-adrenergic receptor:14.5 nM (Ki)

α1B-adrenergic receptor:43.3 nM (Ki)


[In Vitro]

BODIPY FL prazosin (10 nM; 30 min at room temperature in 100 μl; COS-7 cells) shows Affinity of various α1-AR ligands with Ki values of 14.5, 43.3 nM for α1a-AR and α1b-AR, respectively[1]. BODIPY FL prazosin (100 nM, 30 min) can be used as molecular probe for the Visualization of the non-adrenoceptor binding site of α1-adrenergic drugs in erythroleukemia cells[3].
