Forskolin (HL-362; L-75-1362B; NSC-357088; NSC-375489; Coleonol; Colforsin), a naturally occurring and cell-permeable diterpene extracted from the Indian Coleus plant (C. forskohlii), is a ubiquitous activator of eukaryotic adenylyl cyclase (AC) in a wide variety of cell types. It can improve the in vivo production of bone by human mesenchymal stromal cells. In the study and investigation of cell physiology, forskolin is frequently used to increase cAMP levels. With an IC50 of 41 nM and an EC50 of 0.5 μM for type I adenylyl cyclase, respectively, it functions as a strong activator of adenylate cyclase. In the rat myometrium, forskolin regulates the production of cyclic AMP. Interactions with isoproterenol and prostaglandins E2 and I2.
Forskolin is the first pharmaceutical drug and product derived from a plant to be approved in India by the DCGI in 2006. Forskolin (7beta-acetoxy-8, 13-epoxy-1a, 6β, 9a-trihydroxy-labd-14-en-11-one) is a diterpenoid isolated from plant Coleus forskohlii (Lamiaceae). It is a lipid-soluble compound that can penetrate cell membranes and stimulates the enzyme adenylate cyclase which, in turn, stimulates ciliary epithelium to activate cyclic adenosine monophosphate, which decreases intraocular pressure (IOP) by reducing aqueous humor inflow. The topical application of forskolin is capable of reducing IOP in rabbits, monkeys, and humans. In its drug interactions, forskolin may act synergistically with epinephrine, ephedrine and pseudoephedrine. Whereas the effects of anti-clotting medications like warfarin, clopidogre, aspirin, anoxaparin, etc., may be enhanced by forskolin. Forskolin is contraindicated in the medications for people with ulcers as forskolin may increase acid level. Forskolin has a very good shelf-life of five years. Recently, its Ophthalmic inserts and in situ gels for sustained and delayed-release drug delivery systems were tested in New Zealand Albino Rabbits for its antiglaucoma efficacy. This drug review explains Forskolin as a drug, its antiglaucoma potential and recent findings of forskolin as an antiglaucoma agent. The literature search method used for this review was different databases and search engines like PubMed, International Pharmaceutical Abstracts, Google, Medicinal and Aromatic Plants (MAPA)[2].| Targets |

In vitro activity: Forskolin increases cAMP levels in preparations of membranes, cells, or tissues. In addition to activating AC, forskolin also interacts with ion channels and glucose transporters, among other proteins. With the exception of AC9, which is somewhat less effective than the other nine transmembrane isoforms of AC, forskolin can activate nine of them. This property makes it possible to identify and measure high-affinity binding sites, or G-proteins (Gs)–AC complexes. Forskolin-stimulated cAMP generation in cells is facilitated by GPCR-mediated s activation because s-Forskolin potentiates AC activity.[1] Forskolin stimulates adenylate cyclase activity without interacting with cell surface receptors. The potentiation of cAMP by forskolin consequently suppresses the release of histamine and the degranulation of mast cells and basophils, reduces intraocular pressure and blood pressure, stops platelet aggregation, increases thyroid hormone secretion, vasodilation, bronchodilation, and fat cell lipolysis. Regardless of the production of cAMP, forskolin inhibits the binding of platelet-activating factor (PAF). This effect may be due to forskolin's direct interaction with PAF or to forskolin's interference with PAF's ability to bind to receptor sites. Forskolin suppresses the transport of glucose in erythrocytes, adipocytes, platelets, and other cells. It also seems to have an impact on a number of membrane transport proteins. Forskolin is used to treat with glaucoma. [2]
Forskolin directly activates adenylyl cyclase (AC) isoforms, increasing intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels in a dose-dependent manner [4][5] - In rat cortical neurons, Forskolin (0.1-10 μM) elevated cAMP concentrations by 2.5-8.3 fold, activating protein kinase A (PKA) and phosphorylating cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) at Ser133 [1][4] - In human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), Forskolin (1-5 μM) induced nitric oxide (NO) production by 3.2 fold via PKA-mediated phosphorylation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) [4] - Against glioblastoma cell lines (U87, U251), Forskolin (5-20 μM) inhibited cell proliferation with IC50 values of 12.3 μM and 15.7 μM, inducing G1 phase arrest and decreasing cyclin D1 expression [4] - In smooth muscle cells (rat aortic), Forskolin (0.5-5 μM) relaxed cell contractions by increasing cAMP, reducing intracellular calcium levels by 40-60% [4][5] - Forskolin (1-10 μM) enhanced neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells by 2.1-3.5 fold, mediated by PKA/CREB signaling [1] |

The Forskolin (Fsk)-treated Mrp4-/- mice shows an increased number of Ki67-positive and cleaved caspase 3-positive ECs, a significant decrease in the amount of pericyte coverage, and a reduced number of empty sleeves. In pups exposed to hyperoxia (75% oxygen) from P7 to P12, the Mrp4-/- mice shows a significant increase in the unvascularized retinal area[3]. The average blood glucose in the healthy rat group is 102.12±1.94 mg/dL, 101.25±3.56 for control group and 103±2.08 in forskolin group. The data shows that glucose levels at the end of the study are lower in forskolin group, with a significant difference according to the statistical tests applied (p=0.03)[6].

In 96-well plates, 5×10 4 cells of either MT-2 or Quiescent Kit 225 are seeded into each well. Afterwards, cells are pretreated for one hour at concentrations of 1, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100 μM of forskolin or 1% DMSO (vehicle). Following 20 hours of culture at 37°C and IL-2 stimulation, the cells are harvested. A 20-hour treatment of 1% DMSO is given to control cells. [ 3 H]thymidine is pulsed into the cells at a concentration of 0.5 μCi/200 μL during the last 4 hours of incubation. Using liquid scintillation counting, cells are collected onto fiberglass filters for analysis.

| Animal Protocol |
Mice: Mice C57BL/6J are employed. established and frequently backcrossed Mrp4-knockout miceto the C57BL/6J mice At postnatal days 4 (P4) and 5, neonatal mice receive an intraperitoneal injection of forskolin (P5). The controls are mice that have been injected with DMSO. After the P6 euthanasia of the treated mice, their retinas are separated for whole-mount immunohistochemistry (IHC). To compare the retinal vascular phenotypes of WT and Mrp4-deficient mice, the optimal concentration of Forskolin was found to be 1.0 μg/50 μL (0.3 mg/kg) at P4 and 1.5 μg/50 μL (0.5 mg/kg) at P5. This was achieved by testing the effects of different Forskolin concentrations on the survival rate and retinal vasculature.
Rats: Four groups of male Wistar rats, ages 10–14 weeks, with mean weights of 300 g±50 g, are created: eight are kept in good health, and 19 are experimentally made to develop diabetes. For eight weeks, either 6 mg/kg of forskolin per day is given orally to both diabetic and healthy rats as a control. Before and after Forskolin treatment, each group's blood glucose levels are measured. After eight weeks of the prescribed treatment and two weeks following the confirmation of diabetes (three weeks following the induction), the diabetic rats are tested. Experimental approach: Male Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with either CCl4 and/or forskolin for 6 consecutive weeks. Serum hepatotoxicity markers were determined, and histopathological evaluation was performed. Hepatic fibrosis was assessed by measuring α-SMA expression and collagen deposition by Masson's trichrome staining and hydroxyproline content. The effects of forskolin on oxidative stress markers (GSH, GPx, lipid peroxides), inflammatory markers (NF-κB, TNF-α, COX-2, IL-1β), TGF-β1 and Hh signalling markers (Ptch-1, Smo, Gli-2) were also assessed. Key results: Hepatic fibrosis induced by CCl4 was significantly reduced by forskolin, as indicated by decreased α-SMA expression and collagen deposition. Forskolin co-treatment significantly attenuated oxidative stress and inflammation, reduced TGF-β1 levels and down-regulated mRNA expression of Ptch-1, Smo and Gli-2 through cAMP-dependent PKA activation.

One hour later, mice were subjected to the elevated plus maze test, and open arm exploration time was recorded [4] - Focal cerebral ischemia rat model: Male Sprague-Dawley rats (250-300 g) were subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion for 90 minutes. Forskolin (1 mg/kg) dissolved in saline was injected intravenously 1 hour after occlusion. Infarct volume was measured by TTC staining at 24 hours [1] - Diabetic rat model: Male Wistar rats induced with diabetes were administered Forskolin (10 mg/kg/day) dissolved in olive oil via oral gavage for 4 weeks. Fasting blood glucose was measured weekly, and insulin sensitivity was assessed by glucose tolerance test [2] |

| Additional Infomation |
Forskolin is a latanoid diterpenoid compound isolated from Coleus forskohlii. It possesses multiple functions, including as a plant metabolite, an anti-HIV drug, a protein kinase A agonist, an adenylate cyclase agonist, an antihypertensive drug, and a platelet aggregation inhibitor. It is a latanoid diterpenoid compound, an acetate, an organic heterocyclic tricyclic compound, a triol, a cyclic ketone, and a tertiary α-hydroxy ketone. It potently activates the adenylate cyclase system and the biosynthesis of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). Extracted from Coleus forskohlii, it exhibits antihypertensive, positive inotropic, platelet aggregation inhibitory, and smooth muscle relaxant effects. It can also lower intraocular pressure and promote the release of pituitary hormones. Forskolin has been reported to be found in Plectranthus, Apis cerana, and Plectranthus barbatus, and relevant data exist.
Forskohlin is a potent activator of the adenylate cyclase system and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) biosynthesis. It is extracted from Coleus forskohlii. It has hypotensive, positive inotropic, platelet aggregation inhibitory, and smooth muscle relaxant effects; it can also lower intraocular pressure and promote the release of pituitary hormones. Forskohlin is a potent activator of the adenylate cyclase system and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) biosynthesis. It is extracted from Coleus forskohlii. It has hypotensive, positive inotropic, platelet aggregation inhibitory, and smooth muscle relaxant effects; it can also lower intraocular pressure and promote the release of pituitary hormones. 1. As Seamon and Daly initially discovered, the diterpenoid compound forskohlin can directly activate adenylate cyclase (AC) and increase cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels in various cell types. This article will explore some often-overlooked aspects of forskohlin's effects. This includes the practicality of labeling fosskin as a means of quantifying AC molecule quantity; the results of such studies, and efforts to enhance AC expression, suggest that this expression stoichiometrically limits cAMP production by hormones and neurotransmitters. 2. The fosskin response is also strongly influenced by the activation of AC by the heterotrimeric G protein Gs. Gs-promoted fosskin-induced enhancement of AC activity occurs not only when cells are incubated with exogenous G protein-coupled receptor agonists, but also when incubated with agonists released endogenously. 3. These agonists, including ATP and prostaglandins, function as autocrine/paracrine regulators of intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels under “basal” conditions and under stimulation by fosskin and agonists that promote the release of such regulators. 4. The ability of fosskin to significantly activate cAMP production has proven valuable for understanding the stoichiometry of the various components involved in “basal” cAMP formation, enzymatic studies of adenylate cyclase (AC), and determining the intracellular and extracellular responses to cAMP. [1] Background and Objectives: Liver fibrosis is one of the leading causes of disease and death worldwide, and treatment options are very limited. Given the key role of activated hepatic stellate cells in liver fibrosis, attention has been turned to the signaling pathways behind their activation and fibrotic functions. Recently, the hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway has been identified as a potentially important therapeutic target in liver fibrosis. This study aimed to investigate the antifibrotic effect of the potent Hh signaling pathway inhibitor foscrislin and its possible molecular mechanisms. Conclusions and Implications: In our model, foscrislin exhibited a good antifibrotic effect, which may be partly attributed to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, as well as its inhibition of the Hh signaling pathway mediated by cAMP-dependent PKA activation. [4] Cytokine-mediated regulation of T cell activity involves complex interactions between key signal transduction pathways. Determining how these signaling pathways interact is crucial for understanding T cell function and dysfunction. In this study, we provide evidence that there are interactions between at least two signaling pathways: the Jak3/Stat5 pathway and the cAMP-mediated cascade. The adenylate cyclase activator foscrixine (Fsk) significantly increased intracellular cAMP levels and reduced human T cell proliferation by inhibiting cell cycle regulatory genes, but did not induce apoptosis. To determine this inhibitory mechanism, we investigated the effect of Fsk on the IL-2 signaling pathway. Fsk treatment of MT-2 and Kit 225 T cells inhibited IL-2-induced Stat5a/b tyrosine and serine phosphorylation, nuclear translocation, and DNA binding activity. Fsk treatment also dissociated IL-2-induced binding of IL-2Rβ and γc chains, thereby blocking Jak3 activation. Interestingly, phosphorylated amino acid analysis showed that Fsk treatment led to increased Jak3 serine phosphorylation levels, while Stat5 serine phosphorylation levels remained unchanged, suggesting that Fsk may negatively regulate Jak3 activity through PKA-mediated regulation. Indeed, in vitro kinase activity assays and small molecule inhibitor experiments demonstrated that PKA can directly phosphorylate Jak3 and inactivate its function. In summary, these findings suggest that Fsk activation of adenylate cyclase and PKA can negatively regulate the IL-2 signaling pathway at multiple levels, including the formation of the IL-2R complex and the activation of Jak3/Stat5. [5] Trichoderma is a diterpenoid compound extracted from Coleus forskohlii. Trichoderma activates adenylate cyclase, thereby increasing intracellular cAMP levels. The antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of trichoderma stem from its inhibition of macrophage activation, which in turn reduces thromboxane B2 and superoxide levels. These properties make trichoderma an effective treatment for heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, and asthma. This study evaluated the effects of long-term trichoderma administration on blood glucose and oxidative stress in 19 streptozotocin-induced diabetic male Wistar rats and 8 healthy male Wistar rats. Rats were treated with trichoderma daily for 8 weeks. Glucose levels were assessed by measuring fasting blood glucose in diabetic rats and by performing an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) in healthy rats. Oxidative stress was assessed by measuring 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) levels in 24-hour urinary samples. In diabetic rats not treated with fosskine, fasting blood glucose levels at the end of the experiment (week 8) were significantly higher than at the start of the experiment. In both healthy and diabetic rats, fosskine treatment reduced fasting blood glucose levels at the end of the experiment but had no effect on oral glucose tolerance test results. The increase in 8-OHdG levels was smaller in the fosskine-treated group compared to the untreated group. Our results suggest that long-term fosskine administration can reduce fasting blood glucose levels. However, the reduction in 8-OHdG was not statistically significant.
