- Product Overview:
Hydroxyzine is a histamine H1 receptor antagonist (Ki = 1.9 nM).{39568} It binds competitively with the H1 receptor inverse agonist mepyramine (Item No. 20978) with an IC50 value of 80 µM in polymorphonuclear leukocytes.{39569} In vivo, it is metabolized to the H1 receptor antagonist cetirizine (Item No. 19686).{40229} In situ, hydroxyzine (10 µM) prevents recruitment of rolling leukocytes induced by histamine in rat mesentery post-capillary venules.{39570} Hydroxyzine also decreases anxiety-like behavior in mice, increasing the time spent in the open arms of the elevated plus maze and in the light side of the light-dark exploration test.{39571} Formulations containing hydroxyzine have been used in the treatment of anxiety and as antihistamines in the treatment of allergic rhinitis.
Cayman Chemical’s mission is to help make research possible by supplying scientists worldwide with the basic research tools necessary for advancing human and animal health. Our utmost commitment to healthcare researchers is to offer the highest quality products with an affordable pricing policy.
Our scientists are experts in the synthesis, purification, and characterization of biochemicals ranging from small drug-like heterocycles to complex biolipids, fatty acids, and many others. We are also highly skilled in all aspects of assay and antibody development, protein expression, crystallization, and structure determination.
Over the past thirty years, Cayman developed a deep knowledge base in lipid biochemistry, including research involving the arachidonic acid cascade, inositol phosphates, and cannabinoids. This knowledge enabled the production of reagents of exceptional quality for cancer, oxidative injury, epigenetics, neuroscience, inflammation, metabolism, and many additional lines of research.
Our organic and analytical chemists specialize in the rapid development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods to carry out clinical and commercial GMP-API production. Pre-clinical drug discovery efforts are currently underway in the areas of bone restoration and repair, muscular dystrophy, oncology, and inflammation. A separate group of Ph.D.-level scientists are dedicated to offering Hit-to-Lead Discovery and Profiling Services for epigenetic targets. Our knowledgeable chemists can be contracted to perform complete sample analysis for analytes measured by the majority of our assays. We also offer a wide range of analytical services using LC-MS/MS, HPLC, GC, and many other techniques.
