Application
4-(3-Butoxy-4-methoxybenzyl)imidazolidin-2-one has been used:
- as a cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) phosphodiesterase inhibitor to treat cells for the determination of intracellular cAMP levels
- as a component of serum-free medium
- as phosphodiesterase inhibitor in order to study the effects of protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR-1) activation on cAMP levels
Biochem/physiol Actions
