Product Description
NO-independent activator of soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) [1,2]. Activates both isoforms α1β1 and α1β2 of sGC [3]. While the related compound YC-1 (Prod. No. ALX-420-025) also acts as a non-specific phosphodiesterase inhibitor, BAY 41-2272 has no effect on phosphodiesterases. Stimulation of sGC is not blocked by high concentrations of NO scavengers (e.g. PTIO, Prod. No. ALX-430-007) and the combination of  BAY 41-2272 with the NO donor DEA NONOate (Prod. No. ALX-430-034) potentiates the activation of sGC. Although BAY 41-2272 alone is not as strong a stimulator of sGC as NO, concentrations as low as 10-100nM stimulate sGC to a level that would be expected to cause biologically important increases in cGMP [1]. ODQ (Prod. No. ALX-270-034), a potent and selective inhibitor of sGC, completely inhibited the effect of BAY 41-2272 [1]. The activity of BAY 41-2272 is described in selected literature references [4-6].

Product Description
Inhibitor of human phosphodiesterase 2 (PDE2) (IC50=5nM). Selective (>50-fold) versus other human PDEs tested (1C,3A, 4B, 5A, 6, 7B, 8A, 9A, 10A, 11A) and does not affect adenosine deaminase. Raises cGMP levels in cell culture, particularly in combination with a suitable activator of soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC). Raises cAMP in combination with forskolin (Prod. No. ALX-350-001). Increases memory performance in rodents in vivo.
