Protoveratrine A
Catalog No: CFN98521
Protoveratrine A has anti-hypertensive action, it has some effects on cardiovascular and respiratory systems in rats in reducing the blood pressure and heart rate,prolonging the QTc interval,decreasing the respiratory rate and increasing the respiratory width. Protoveratrine A can increase K + uptake from frog skeletal muscle and cause this tissue to release more calcium (Ca ++ ). Protoveratrine A seems to involve at least in part an inhibition of dopaminergic neuron activity, it enhances the release of acetylcholine from the nerve terminals during the resting period and at low frequency of stimulation.
