Application
Moxonidine hydrochloride has been used:
- as a standard to study its blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability in porcine brain lipid extract by parallel artificial membrane permeability assay (PAMPA) method
- as a standard to study the chromatographic behavior and lipophilicity by reversed-phase thin-layer chromatography (RP-TLC)
- as an imidazoline I1 receptor agonist to study its effects on excitatory inputs in airway vagal preganglionic neuron (AVPN)
Biochem/physiol Actions
Moxonidine is a selective high-affinity imidazoline I1-receptor agonist and a selectively low-affinity α2-adrenoceptor agonist. It exhibits anti-hypertensive properties by reducing blood pressure efficiently. Moxonidine also exhibits spinal analgesic activity through the α2C-adrenoceptor component.

As an imidazoline I1 receptor agonist with very weak binding affinity for α2-adrenoceptors, moxonidine is commonly used in the treatment of hypertension. Moxonidine also has been implicated to act centrally to reduce airway vagal outflow. However, it is unknown at

The antihypertensive agent moxonidine, an imidazoline Ii-receptor agonist, also induces hypophagia and lowers body weight in the obese spontaneously hypertensive rat, but the central mediation of this action and the neuronal pathways that moxonidine may interact with are not known.

Imidazoline receptor ligands are a numerous family of biologically active compounds known to produce central hypotensive effect by interaction with both α2-adrenoreceptors (α2-AR) and imidazoline receptors (IRs). Recent hypotheses connect those ligands with several neurological disorders. Therefore some IRs ligands
