PD 116,948, a xanthine derivative, is a very potent and selective adenosine A1 receptor antagonist. Exhibits negative chronotropic activity via A1 receptors in isolated rat heart and produces vasodilator effects via A2 receptors. Has been shown to block adenosine-inhibited excitatory post synaptic currents (EPSCs) recorded from subiculum neurons. This product was also observed to inhibit osteoclast formation in mice and stimulate Cl- efflux from delta F508 genotypic cells typically associated with cystic fibrosis.
