Tadalafil PDE inhibitor

Cat.No.S1512

Tadalafil is a PDE-5 inhibitor with IC50 of 1.8 nM in a cell-free assay. This compound is at least 9000 times more selective for PDE5 than most of the other families of PDEs, with the exception of PDE11. It can partial inhibits PDE11

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.

Mechanism of Action

Features
Much more potent to PDE-5 than PDE-1 or PDE-6.
Targets/IC50/Ki
PDE5
(Cell-free assay)
1.8 nM
In vitro
Tadalafil binds to PDE5 with KD of 2.4 nM. cGMP stimulates the binding of [3H]this compound. This chemical (1 mM) results increased CYP3A protein expression in human hepatocytes.
In vivo
Tadalafil (2 mg/kg) almost completely restores penile oxygenation and abolishes neurotomy induced increase and substantially rescues muscle/fiber ratio in penile sectionsin sham-operated rats. This compound (2 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg) significantly improves neurological functional recovery and increases cerebral vascular density and the percentage of BrdU-positive endothelial cells around the ischemic boundary. It selectively increases cGMP but not cAMP in brain of rats. It decreases the number of apoptotic cells and increases the phosphorylation of the 2 survival associated kinases Akt and extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 in mice.
