Laboratory Procedures
For long term storage, we suggest that zaprinast be stored as supplied at -20°C. It should be stable for at least one Zaprinast is supplied as a crystalline solid. A stock solution may be made by dissolving the zaprinast in an organic solvent purged with an inert gas. Zaprinast is soluble in organic solvents such as DMSO and dimethyl formamide (DMF). The solubility of zaprinast in these solvents is approximately 10 mg/ml. Zaprinast is sparingly soluble in aqueous buffers. For maximum solubility in aqueous buffers, zaprinast should first be dissolved in DMF and then diluted with the aqueous buffer of choice. Zaprinast has a solubility of approximately 0.5 mg/ml in a 1:1 solution of DMF:PBS (pH 7.2) using this method. We do not recommend storing the aqueous solution The cyclic nucleotide second messenger guanosine 3’5’-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) is an important mediator of signal transduction and hence a wide range of cellular processes. It can be generated by soluble guanylyl cyclase in response to binding of nitric oxide and degraded via members of the phosphodiesterase (PDE) protein family. Zaprinast, the compound from which sildenafil (Viagra™) was developed, is a cGMP-specific phosphodiesterase inhibitor. It moderately inhibits PDE5 and PDE6 with IC50 values of 0.5-0.76 and 0.15 µM, respectively, and weakly inhibits PDE9, PDE10, and PDE11 with IC50 values of 35, 22, and 11-33 µM, respectively.1,2 Zaprinast therefore enhances the vasodilatory effects of nitric oxide in a range of vascular tissues by prolonging the cGMP-mediated activation of cGMP-dependent protein kinase.2 Zaprinast also activates both the rat and human G protein-coupled receptor, GPR35 with EC50 values of 16 nM References

Menopause Menopause Summary Menopause is a natural process. The side effects of menopause are usually not directly related to the process of change itself, rather it is indicative of other ongoing health issues exacerbated by menopause. These can be associated with liver dysfunction, often related to chronic toxicity. This in turn leads to mal-absorption and serious mineral, enzyme,
