S-(+)-Rolipram is an inhibitor of cyclic AMP-specific phosphodiesterase. It is the S isomer of (±)-Rolipram (R640040). Potent PDE4 inhibitor
Uses
S-(+)-Rolipram inhibits human monocyte cyclic AMP-specific PDE4 with IC50 of 0.75 μM, has anti-inflammatory and anti-depressant activity in the central nervous system, less potent than its R enantiomer
Definition
ChEBI: The (S)-enantiomer of rolipram.
Biological Activity
Less active enantiomer of the PDE4 inhibitor rolipram (4-(3-(Cyclopentyloxy)-4-methoxyphenyl)pyrrolidin-2-one ).
