Description

Application

Pentoxifylline has been used:

used in the combinatorial treatment with itraconazole for paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM)
to treat harvested sperms to check the effect of ′pentoxifylline exposed sperms′ in the contribution of embryonic growth
to intrathecally inject female and male mice to investigate whether astrocytes and microglia could be causally involved in the maintenance of pain-like behaviour

Biochem/physiol Actions

Pentoxifylline (PTX) is considered as a nonspecific phosphodiesterase inhibitor. It possesses rheologic properties. Pentoxifylline is used to treat peripheral vascular disease. It has the ability to block the phosphorylation of I kappa B-alpha (IĸBα) in serines 32 and 36.

Phosphodiesterase inhibitor; inhibits synthesis of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α).
