Bioactivity | Dipyridamole is an orally active phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitor. Dipyridamole also is an antiplatelet agent used in secondary prophylaxis against stroke. Dipyridamole can induce cancer cell-specific apoptosis[1][2][3]. |
Invitro | Dipyridamole (5 μM; 15 min) results in a 2.5-fold increase in intracellular cAMP levels in OCI-AML-3 cells[2].Dipyridamole (5 μM; 48 h) with the statin combination induces apoptosis in primary AML cells[2].Dipyridamole (5 μM; 48 h) possesse cAMP/PKA-independent activity against statininduced SREBP2 activation[2].
