Product Data
Biological target:
Rolipram is a selective inhibitor of cAMP phosphodiesterase (PDE4) (IC50 = 2.0 μM). Rolipram discriminates between two conformational states of PDE4 isoenzymes.
In vitro activity:
Rolipram suppressed migration and invasion of human choriocarcinoma cells in vitro, possibly by inhibiting epithelial-mesenchymal transition through PDE4 inhibition. Rolipram and knockdown of PDE4D were efficient to inhibit the migration and invasion of choriocarcinoma cells in vitro, accompanied by decreased expression of MMP9 and TIMP1. Reference: J Biochem Mol Toxicol. 2023 Jul;37(7):e23363. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37020384/
In vivo activity:
The findings of this study suggest that rolipram can be an effective target for treatment of comorbid Alzheimer's disease and depression. In this APP/PS1/tau mice model, rolipram injections may mitigate cognitive deficits and depression-like behavior by reducing amyloid-β pathology, tau phosphorylation, neuroinflammation, and apoptosis.
