SKF 86466 is an antagonist of α2-adrenergic receptors (α2-ARs; Kis = 9.4, 16, and 20 nM for α2A, α2B, and α2C receptors, respectively).1 It is selective for α2-ARs over α1-ARs (Kis = 449, 485, and 126 nM for α1A, α1B, and α1D receptors, respectively). SKF 86466 inhibits contractions in rabbit aorta and canine saphenous vein induced by norepinephrine or B-HT 920 (Item No. 14177), respectively (KBs = 600 and 42 nM, respectively). It decreases diastolic blood pressure in DOCA-salt hypertensive, spontaneously hypertensive, and two kidney-one clip (2K-1C) renal hypertensive rats when administered at a dose of 2 mg/kg, i.v.2 SKF 86466 (1 mg/kg) reduces muscle rigidity induced by reserpine (Item No. 19474) in a mouse model of Parkinson’s disease.3
