Notes: Dipyridamole-d16 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of dipyridamole (Item No. 18189) by GC- or LC-MS. Dipyridamole is a phosphodiesterase 5A (PDE5A) inhibitor (IC50 = 574 nM) that prevents platelet aggregation by increasing cGMP levels and blocking the reuptake of adenosine via red blood cells.{23680,29326} It also scavenges the free radicals that inactivate cyclooxygenase, leading to the inhibition of platelet activation and thrombin generation.{23680} Dipyridamole has also been shown to inhibit PDE11A with an IC50 value of 370 nM and equilibrative nucleoside transporter 1 (ENT1) with a Ki value of 8.18 nM.{17520,29324} Formulations containing dipyridamole in combination with aspirin have been used to prevent stroke and other cardiovascular events.
