Description and Uses
Hexamethonium is a peripherally-acting nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent that acts as an antagonist of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs). It decreases acetylcholine release induced by carbamoylcholine in isolated cat superior cervical ganglion when used at concentrations of 27.4 and 54.8 μg/ml. It also decreases mean arterial pressure in unanesthetized rats when administered at a dose of 40 mg/kg. Intraventricular administration of hexamethonium (18 ng, i.c.v.) induces signs of nicotine abstinence, including shaking, writhing, and chewing in nicotine-dependent rats. Formulations containing hexamethonium were previously used in the treatment of hypertension.
Hexamethonium bromide has been used:
- as an autonomic ganglia-blocking agent to study its effects on whisker movement in rats
- as a nicotinic receptor antagonist to study its effects on antigen-induced arthritis (AIA) progression in mice
- as a non-selective ganglionic nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) antagonist to study its effects on cytisine-induced autonomic cardiovascular responses in mice
