An internal standard for the quantification of bethanechol
Bethanechol-d6 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of bethanechol by GC- or LC-MS. Bethanechol is an agonist of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors with IC50 values of 1,837, 25, 631, 317, and 393 µM for M1-5, respectively, in a radioligand binding assay using CHO cells expressing the human receptors.1 It inhibits M2-mediated increases in cyclic AMP induced by isoproterenol in isolated guinea pig small intestine (IC50 = 127 µM).2 Bethanechol increases basal tone of isolated porcine intravesical ureter (EC50 = 4.27 µM).3 It also induces fluid secretion in the ileum, duodenum, and jejunum of anesthetized rats when administered at a dose of 60 µg/kg.4 Formulations containing bethanechol have been used to increase urination and improve smooth muscle tone in the gastrointestinal tract.
