Description
Bucladesine sodium is a derivative of cyclic-AMP with cardiac stimulant and
peripheral vasodilatory properties. It is reported to be useful in cardiac
insufficiency, especially after heart surgery.
Originator
Daiichi Seiyaku; Seishin Seiyaku (Japan)
Uses
Bucladesine sodium is an analog of cyclic AMP that stimulates cAMP-dependent protein kinase. It has vasodilator properties and is used as a cardiac stimulant.
Definition
ChEBI: Bucladesine sodium is a 3',5'-cyclic purine nucleotide.
Application
N6,2′-O-Dibutyryladenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate sodium salt has been used:
as a medium supplement for neural crest stem cells (NCSCs) differentiation
as a component of thawing medium for cryopreserved human iPSC (induced pluripotent stem cell)-derived neurons
in serum-free Dulbecco′s modified eagle′s medium (DMEM) to induce astrocyte differentiation
General Description
A cell-permeable cAMP analog that preferentially activates cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). Causes an increase in the steady state level of parathyroid hormone-related peptide mRNA. Also acts as a Hh pathway antagonist. Shown to induce apoptosis in vascular smooth muscle cells.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Cell-permeable cAMP analog that activates cAMP dependent protein kinase (PKA).
