KMUP-4
KMUP-4, as a xanthine derivative with cGMP-enhancing activity, induces aortic relaxation through endothelium-dependent and independent mechanisms. KMUP-4 increases cytoplasmic cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels by inhibiting phosphodiesterases (PDEs) and activating K+ channels. KMUP-4 can be used in the study of cardiovascular diseases.

Biological Activity
KMUP-4 (1 nM-100 μM) produces concentration-dependent vasorelaxant effects on deendothelial aortas (E2) (pEC50=5.94) and intact endothelial aortas (E+) (PEC50=6.45), indicating that the vasodilatory effect of KMUP-4 is partially dependent on endothelial cells[1]. KMUP-4 (10 μM) shows 56%, 33% and 15% inhibitory activity against PDE3, PDE4 and PDE5 in HUVECs[1]. KMUP-4 (0.1 μM, 18 h) increases significantly the expression of eNOS protein in HUVECs[1].
