(1-42) (A?42; Item No. 20574) in primary rat hippocampal neurons.{53287} Intravenous infusion of propentofylline (0.01, 0.05, and 0.1 mg/kg per minute) reduces infarct volume in a rat model of ischemic brain damage induced by permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) when administered following MCAO.{53288} It inhibits cAMP phosphodiesterases, is an antagonist of adenosine A1 and A2 receptors, and binds to adenosine transporters.{53289,53290}
