    Product Description

    Quazinone is a selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE3) with positive inotropic and vasodilating properties.1,2 It induces relaxation of precontracted isolated human cavernous smooth muscle (IC50 = 4.2 μM).1 Quazinone (10-300 μg/kg) increases myocardial contractile force in anesthetized open-chest dogs in a dose-dependent manner, as well as decreases systolic and diastolic blood pressure.2 It also inhibits DNA synthesis induced by the PDGF isoform PDGF-BB in bovine coronary artery smooth muscle cells in a concentration-dependent manner.3

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
