Biological Activity

[Description]:

Proxyphylline is a methylxanthine derivative clinical used as cardiac stimulant, vasodilator and bronchodilator.

Signaling Pathways >> GPCR/G Protein >> Adenosine Receptor

Research Areas >> Cardiovascular Disease

[In Vitro]

Proxyphylline has shown vasodilatory and cardiac stimulatory effects. Proxyphylline produces an increase in the coronary flow associated with a definite positive inotropic effect[1]. Proxyphylline inhibits tracheal PDE-activity and half-maximum relaxation of tracheal smooth muscle is obtained with 100 μg/mL proxyphylline[2]

[In Vivo]

In a double-blind cross-over study, proxyphylline exhibits bronchodilatory effect[3]. Proxyphylline inhibits cAMP and cGMP hydrolysis in human lung tissue. The apparent inhibition constant of proxyphylline is 0.06-0.7 mM at low cAMP concentrations and it is 1.0 mM at high cAMP concentrations[3].
