p-1075

P-1075 opens mitochondrial K(ATP) channels and generates reactive oxygen species causing cardioprotection of rabbit hearts. P-1075 is an effective activator of sulfonylurea receptor 2-associated ATP-sensitive potassium channels (SUR2-KIR6) (EC50: 45 nM fo

O-Demethyl apremilast is an active metabolite of the phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitor apremilast .1It inhibits the activity of PDE4 isolated from U937 cells and LPS-induced TNF-α production in isolated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs; IC50s = 8.3 and 5.6 μM, respectively). O-Demethyl apremilast is also an oxidative degradation product of apremilast.2,3 1.Hoffmann, M., Kumar, G., Schafer, P., et al.Disposition, metabolism and mass balance of [14C]apremilast following oral administrationXenobiotica41(12)1063-1075(2011) 2.Lu, Y., Shen, X., Hang, T., et al.Identification and characterization of process-related substances and degradation products in apremilast: Process optimization and degradation pathway elucidationJ.
