product name Vinpocetine


Description: Vinpocetine (also known as RGH-4405) is a potent and selective voltage-sensitive sodium channel blocker for the treatment of stroke, vascular dementia and Alzheimers disease. Vinpocetine has been reported to have a selective and noncompetitive inhibition of Ca2+ PDE and thus regulate cyclic GMP levels in smooth muscle. In addition, vinpocetine has been revealed to inhibit the activities of three resolvable PDE in the cytosol of rat aorta with Ki values of 14±2μM, >1000μM and >1000μM for Ca2+ PDE(+)CaM, cGMP PDE and cAMP PDE, respectively.
