Dibutyryl-cGMP sodium_product_DataBase

Bioactivity	Dibutyryl-cGMP sodium (Bt2cGMP sodium) is a cell-permeable cGMP analogue. Dibutyryl-cGMP sodium preferentially activates cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG). Dibutyryl-cGMP sodium inhibits the release of [3H]-arachidonic acid from γ thrombin-stimulated human platelets. Dibutyryl-cGMP sodium induces peripheral antinociception via activation of ATP-sensitive K+ channels[1][2][3].
Target	cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG);ATP-sensitive K+ channels
Invitro	Dibutyryl-cGMP is able to induce process elongation and branching in astrocytes resulting from a rapid, reversible and concentration-dependent redistribution of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and actin filaments without significant change in protein levels[1]. When cells are co-incubated with Dibutyryl-cGMP (100 μM) stress fibre formation is prevented and cells acquired a stellate morphology in cerebellar astrocytes[1]. In cells treated with Dibutyryl-cGMP (100 μM, 2 h) the particulate fraction is nearly devoid of RhoA protein. Dibutyryl-cGMP prevents RhoA-membrane association[1].Using the scratchwound model, the size of the wound is significantly smaller in cells treated with Dibutyryl-cGMP after the wound indicating that dbcGMP accelerates wound closure[1].
In Vivo	Dibutyryl-cGMP (50-200 μg/paw; subcutaneous injection; male Wistar rats) treatment antagonizes the hyperalgesic effect of PGE2 in a dose-dependent manner. Maximal antinociceptive effect of DbcGMP is at 1 h after administration and last for plus 2 h[3]. Animal Model:
