Theophylline (1,3-Dimethylxanthine) is a methyl xanthine derivative from tea with diuretic, smooth muscle relaxant, bronchial dilation, cardiac, and central nervous system stimulant activities. It inhibits the 3', 5'-cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase that degrades cyclic AMP, thus potentiating the actions of agents that act through adenylyl cyclases and cyclic AMP.

Pentoxifylline (PTX) modulates immunologic activity by stimulating cytokine production. Pentoxifylline is a methylxanthine derivative that inhibits phosphodiesterase and affects blood rheology. It also inhibits platelet aggregation and improves blood flow by increasing erythrocyte and leukocyte flexibility.

Doxofylline (Doxophylline) is a methylxanthine derivative with the presence of a dioxolane group in position 7. As a drug used in the treatment of asthma, doxofylline has shown similar efficacy to theophylline but with significantly fewer side effects in animal and human studies.

Proxyphylline (7-(2-Hydroxypropyl)theophylline) is a dual of adenosine A1 A2a receptor inhibitor and phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitor. Proxyphylline acts as a cardiac stimulant, vasodilator and bronchodilator.

3-O-Methylquercetin is a selective and competitive PDE3/PDE4 inhibitor, and inhibits PDE3 than PDE4 with a low K(m) value; it inhibits total cAMP- and cGMP-phosphodiesterase (PDE) of guinea pig trachealis at low concentrations.

Moracin M, a phenolic compound found in the skin of Morus alba Linn., effectively inhibits phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4), exhibiting IC50 values of 2.9 μM and 4.5 μM for PDE4D2 and PDE4B2, respectively, and showing significantly lesser activity on PDE5A1 and PDE9A2 with values over 40 μM and 100 μM, respectively. This compound demonstrates notable anti-inflammatory activity.

Robustine is a natural product, exhibits inhibitory potency against human phosphodiesterase 5 (hPDE5A) in vitro.

Norbraylin is a natural product from Toddalia asiatica.

Luteolin (Luteolol) belongs to the flavonoid group of natural products and is a Nrf2 inhibitor, PDE inhibitor. Luteolin has a wide range of biological activities including antitumor, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antiviral, antiallergic, and procoagulant.

Acefylline (Theophylline-7-acetic acid), a stimulant drug of the xanthine chemical class, acts as an adenosine receptor antagonist. It is combined with diphenhydramine in the pharmaceutical preparation Etanautine to help offset its stimulant effects

Icariin (Ieariline) belongs to the flavonol glycoside group of natural products, can inhibit PDE5 and PDE4 activity (IC50=432 73.50 μM), is also a PPARα activator. Icariin can increase cardiovascular and cerebrovascular blood flow, promote hematopoiesis, immunity and bone metabolism.

Drotaverine hydrochloride is a type 4 cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE4) inhibitor,and is an antispasmodic drug, used to enhance cervical dilation during childbirth. Drotaverine hydrochloride is structurally related to papaverine

Butein is a cAMP-specific PDE inhibitor, protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor, and SIRT1 activator. It sensitizes HeLa cells to Cisplatin by targeting FoxO3a via the AKT and ERK p38 MAPK pathways.

Udenafil is an inhibitor of PDE5 .

Ayanin has vasorelaxant activity, it also may have the potential for use in treating allergic asthma.The IC(50) value of Ayanin (quercetin-3,7,4'-O-trimethylether) is 2.2microM for inhibiting interleukin (IL)-4 production from purified basophils.

Sophoflavescenol is a mixed inhibitor of PDE5 with a K(i) value of 0.005 microM. Sophoflavescenol has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and apoptotic effects , these effects might contribute to the antitumor activity without severe side effects. Sophoflaves

Theobromine (3,7-Dimethylxanthine), a xanthine alkaloid, is used as a bronchodilator and as a vasodilator.

Diphylline (Diprophylline) is a xanthine derivative. Diphylline exerts bronchodilator effects and to a lesser extent vasodilator and diuretic properties. Diphylline probably acts as a competitive inhibitor of phosphodiesterase which leads to an increase in intracellular cAMP. This results in relaxation of bronchial smooth muscle and other smooth muscles. Diphylline may also antagonize adenosinereceptors. Diphylline is used in the treatment of acute bronchial asthma, chronic bronchitis and emphysema.

Aminophylline (Phyllocontin) is a competitive nonselective phosphodiesterase inhibitor giving a bronchodilatory effect.

Fraxin (Fraxoside) is a glucoside of fraxetin.

Obscurolide A1 is a butenolide isolated from Streptomyces viridochromogenes cultures that shows weak inhibitory activity against Ca2+ CaM-dependent and non-Ca2+ CaM-dependent phosphodiesterases in cattle.

Glaucine has antitussive, antioxidative potential and antiviral activities, it may be an anti-arthritic agent, it can enhance LPS and zymosan-induced IL-10 production. Glaucine can inhibit the migration and invasion of human breast cancer cells by MMP-9 i

Ginkgolide J (BN 52024) has neuroprotective activity, it can prevent A beta(1-42) induced inhibition of long-term potentiation in the CA1 region of mouse hippocampal slices.

Kushenol K is a potent and Selective Inhibitor of cGMP Phosphodiesterase 5, it also has inhibitory effects on diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT). Kushenol K shows weak antiviral activity against Herpes simplex virus types I and II.
