Isoprenaline hemisulfate is a non-selective, orally activeβ-adrenergic receptoragonist. Isoprenaline has potent peripheral vasodilator, bronchodilator, and cardiac stimulating activities. Isoprenaline can be used for the research of bradycardia and bronchial asthma^{[1][2][3][4][5][6]}.

Isoprenaline hemisulfate (300 nM, 3 min) increases particulate cGMP- and cilostamide-inhibited, low-K_mcAMP phosphodiesterase (cAMP-PDE) activity by about 100% in intact rat fat cells^[1].
Isoprenaline inhibits insulin-stimulated glucose transport activity in rat adipocytes. Isoprenaline, in the absence of adenosine, promotes a time-dependent (t1/2 approximately 2 min) decrease in the accessibility of insulin-stimulated cell surface GLUT4 of >50%, which directly correlated with the observed inhibition of transport activity^[2].
Isoprenaline (5 nM and 10 μM) increases cyclic AMP levels and this effect is potentiated by cilostamide (10 mM), by rolipram, a cyclic AMP-specific PDE (PDE 4) inhibitor (10 mM) and by cyclic GMP-elevating agents (50 nM ANF or 30 nM SNP plus 100 nM DMPPO)^[3].
Isoprenaline increases the transcriptional activity of Gi alpha-2 gene to 140% of the control value, whereas gene specific hybridization for Gs alpha remains unchanged^[4].
Isoprenaline (20 nM) increases the amplitude of total iK and causes a negative shift of approximately 10 mV in the activation curve for iK, both in the absence and in the presence of 300 nM nisoldipine to block the L-type Ca²⁺current^[5].
Isoprenaline (20 nM) increases the spontaneous pacemaker rate of sino-atrial node pacemaker cells by 16% in rabbit isolated pacemaker cells^[5].

Isoprenaline hemisulfate (oral, 0.27-0. 64 μg/kg) is extensively metabolizes by a relatively small number of reactions in dogs^[6].
