Application

Zardaverine has been used as a phosphodiesterase inhibitor:
  • to study its effects on human colonic epithelial cells
  • to study its effects on junctional proteins in Sertoli cells
  • to study its effects on phosphodiesterase 3 A (PDE3A) expression in various tumor cells

Biochem/physiol Actions

Selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterase III/IV (PDE3/4).
Zardaverine is a derivative of pyridazinone. It shows anti-tumor and anti-proliferative activity in varied cell lines. Zardaverine possesses broncho-dilatory activity and exhibits therapeutic effects against asthma.

We and others have previously reported a correlation between high phosphodiesterase 3A (PDE3A) expression and selective sensitivity to phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors. This indicates that PDE3A could serve both as a drug target and a biomarker of sensitivity to PDE3 inhibition.
