| Targets |
Rolofylline targets the adenosine A1 receptor (A1AR). It is a potent and selective antagonist of this receptor, with a Ki of 0.19 nM and 890-fold selectivity for A1AR over A2A receptors. By blocking A1AR, it prevents adenosine-induced vasoconstriction of renal afferent arterioles and tubuloglomerular feedback, promoting diuresis and natriuresis while protecting renal function.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Rolofylline is a potent A1AR antagonist with a Ki of 0.19 nM and 890-fold selectivity for A1AR over A2A receptors. In preclinical studies, it increases urine output up to 69% over placebo while preserving or improving GFR (+32% in CHF models). This demonstrates its potent and selective in vitro and in vivo activity.
|
| ln Vivo |
Rolofylline has been evaluated in the largest A1AR antagonist trial (PROTECT, n=2,033) with comprehensive safety and PK data. In preclinical studies, it increases urine output and enhances natriuresis while protecting against diuretic-induced renal deterioration. However, its clinical development for ADHF did not lead to regulatory approval.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro activity of Rolofylline is assessed using radioligand binding assays. Membrane preparations from cells expressing human A1AR or A2A receptors are incubated with a labeled adenosine receptor ligand in the presence of various concentrations of Rolofylline. The Ki values and selectivity ratios are calculated from displacement curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cell-based assays are used to evaluate Rolofylline's antagonist activity. Cells expressing A1AR are treated with an A1AR agonist (such as CPA or CHA) in the presence or absence of Rolofylline. The compound's ability to block agonist-induced inhibition of cAMP accumulation (A1AR is coupled to Gi and inhibits adenylyl cyclase) is measured. IC50 or Kb values are calculated from dose-response curves.
|
| Animal Protocol |
Rolofylline has been evaluated in animal models of heart failure and renal impairment. In these studies, the compound is typically administered orally or intravenously, and its effects on urine output, GFR, renal blood flow, and hemodynamic parameters are assessed. It has also been studied in the PROTECT clinical trial in patients with ADHF.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Rolofylline has a molecular weight of 356.5 g/mol and a molecular formula of C20H28N4O2. Its IUPAC name is 8-(hexahydro-2,5-methanopentalen-3a(1H)-yl)-3,9-dihydro-1,3-dipropyl-1H-purine-2,6-dione. It is soluble in DMSO but not in water. Powder should be stored at -20°C for long-term stability.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Rolofylline has been extensively studied in clinical trials, and its safety profile is well characterized. In the PROTECT trial (n=2,033), comprehensive safety data was collected. As an A1AR antagonist, it can affect renal function and cardiovascular parameters. Common side effects may include headache, dizziness, and gastrointestinal effects. Its development for ADHF did not lead to regulatory approval.

| Additional Infomation |
Rolofylline is an oxypurine drug. Rolofylline is currently being clinically developed by the pharmaceutical company NovaCardia for the treatment of congestive heart failure. Drug Indications: Heart failure Mechanism of Action: Rolofylline is an adenosine A1 receptor antagonist. Patients with heart failure have elevated plasma adenosine levels, and adenosine A1 receptors in the kidneys mediate vasoconstriction in the bulbar arterioles, reabsorption of sodium and water in the proximal tubules, and tubuloglomerular feedback in the juxtaglomerular apparatus. Therefore, inhibiting these receptors is expected to increase renal blood flow and enhance diuresis. The effects of Rolofylline on renal function are consistent with those observed in experimental and human models of heart failure with another adenosine A1 receptor antagonist.
Rolofylline (CAS#: 136199-02-5) is a potent and selective adenosine A1 receptor antagonist, also known as KW-3902 and MK-7418. It has a Ki of 0.19 nM and 890-fold selectivity for A1AR over A2A receptors. Rolofylline increases urine output while preserving GFR and was evaluated in the largest A1AR antagonist trial (PROTECT, n=2,033). It is a valuable research tool for studying adenosine receptor pharmacology and cardiorenal physiology. |
