Benzcyclane (Standard)

Benzcyclane (Standard) is the analytical standard of Benzcyclane (HY-U00134). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Benzcyclane (Bencyclane; Benzcyclan) is a vasodilator with serotonin receptor antagonism. Benzcyclane exerts atypical serotonin antagonistic effects in rabbit superior mesenteric arteries. Benzcyclane relaxes high K⁺-induced contractions in rabbit basilar arteries and superior mesenteric arteries, and selectively inhibits sympathetic nerve stimulation-induced contractions in rabbit pulmonary arteries. Benzcyclane exerts non-competitive norepinephrine antagonistic effects in rabbit superior mesenteric arteries, and slightly reduces the maximum contractile response induced by histamine. Benzcyclane relaxes smooth muscles, induces transient hypotension, inhibits thrombosis, and accelerates blood fibrinolytic activity. Benzcyclane increases cerebral glucose content/uptake, enhances hypoxia tolerance in mice, and increases cerebral blood supply in dogs. Benzcyclane is applicable to studies related to cerebral vascular circulation^[1].
