Cytisine, Cytisinicline, Baphitoxine/nicotine-like, smoking-cessation direction, respiratory stimulant

Description

This product is cytisine, also known as sophorine, with the CAS number 485-35-8. It is a natural bioactive alkaloid extracted and refined from the seeds of leguminous plants such as Sophora alopecuroides, Cytisus scoparius and Wisteria sinensis. Its molecular formula is C₁₁H₁₄N₂O and molecular weight is approximately 190.24. It normally appears as white to yellow crystalline powder with a purity of over 98% (tested by HPLC). As a well-established commercial pharmaceutical raw material, this product can be supplied in different grades including pharmaceutical grade and reagent grade according to application requirements. It is mainly provided to pharmaceutical manufacturers, scientific research institutions and testing organizations. It is an alkaloid variety with a long application history and definite research value. The product shall be stored in a sealed, light-proof and low-temperature environment.

Key Effects

Cytisine has a unique mode of action: it targets a specific type of receptor in the human nervous system — the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, which is also where nicotine exerts its effects. Cytisine binds to this receptor and produces similar but not identical effects. Therefore, it can reduce cravings for nicotine and withdrawal symptoms to a certain extent. This is the core principle behind its development as a smoking cessation drug, and related smoking cessation preparations have been used as medicines in some countries. In addition, in traditional medical applications, cytisine was once used as a respiratory stimulant to rescue respiratory arrest caused by surgery, trauma and other conditions. It is also an important tool compound in neuropharmacology research.

Its specific functions can be summarized as follows:
Smoking cessation research support: Acts on nicotinic receptors to help reduce nicotine cravings and withdrawal symptoms;
Relief of nicotine addiction symptoms: Serves as a partial agonist of nicotinic receptors for research related to nicotine dependence;
Respiratory stimulant effect: Traditionally used as first aid support for conditions such as reflex respiratory arrest;
Neuropharmacological research: Used as an experimental tool compound to study nicotinic receptor functions and addiction mechanisms;
Quality control of traditional Chinese medicine: Acts as a standard reference substance for content determination of relevant medicinal materials and preparations.
