Rolipram
- Soluble in DMSO and EtOH
- MF: C16H21NO3
- MW: 275.34
Description
Rolipram is a prototypical phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitor that elevates intracellular cAMP by preventing PDE4-mediated cAMP degradation.
PDE4 regulates cAMP signaling in immune cells, neurons and glia. Rolipram is widely used to investigate anti-inflammatory cAMP signaling, neuroprotection, cognition-related pathways and CNS pharmacology.
Key Features
- Prototypical PDE4 inhibitor
- Increases cAMP signaling by blocking PDE4 activity
- Useful anti-inflammatory and CNS pharmacology tool
- Reference compound for PDE4 inhibitor studies
Applications
- PDE4 enzyme inhibition assays
- cAMP signaling and CREB pathway studies
- Neuroinflammation and neuroprotection research
- CNS behavioral and pharmacology models
Optically pure enantiomers are also available from Axon Medchem: (R)-(-)-Rolipram (Axon 1229) and (S)-(+)-Rolipram (Axon 1432).
