General description

Cell-permeable, non-competitive adenylate cyclase inhibitor (IC₅₀ = 3 µM), that binds to the adenosine P1 binding site. Blocks positive inotropic and chronotropic effects of β-adrenergic agents.

Membrane-permeable adenylate cyclase inhibitor that binds non-competitively to the enzyme via the P-site. Its inhibitory effect varies widely among tissues (IC₅₀ = 3 µM for detergent solubilized rat brain membranes; IC₅₀ = 45 µM for purified bovine brain enzyme). Blocks the forskolin-induced activation of adenylate cyclase activity (IC₅₀ = 540 µM) in cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells. Also blocks the positive ionotropic and chronotropic effects of β-adrenergic agents.
