Uses

Used to produce controlled hypotension during surgical procedures and in hypertensive crises.

How Ansolysen works

Ansolysen binds to the nicotinic (ganglion) acetylcholine receptor. This receptor/channel is permeable to a range of divalent cations including calcium, the influx of which may activate a potassium current which hyperpolarizes the cell membrane. Blockage of the receptor leads to smooth muscle relaxation and vasodilaton.

Toxicity

Oral, mouse: LD50 = 512 mg/kg; Oral, rat: LD50 = 890 mg/kg.
