Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including http://www.eisai.jp/medical/products/di/EPI/COR_A_EPI.pdf

Olprinone (INN) is a cardiotonic agent, is used for treatment acute heart failure. It has been marketed in Japan since 1996. The main mechanism of action of olprinone hydrochloride hydrate is selective inhibition of PDE III specific to cAMP. It is considered that this action causes an increase in intracellular cAMP levels and peak Ca2+ levels, thereby increasing myocardial contractility.

Sample Use Guides

intravenously at a dose of 10 µg/kg of olprinone hydrochloride hydrate, gradually over 5 min, and then drip-infused intravenously at a rate of 0.1 - 0.3 µg/kg/min
Route of Administration: Intravenous
In Vitro Use Guide
E-1020 (Olprinone) may improve diastolic function as well as systolic function in failing hearts. Effects of E-1020, on intracellular calcium transients were compared with those of isoproterenol (ISO) in isolated single myocytes from failing hearts secondary to pulmonary hypertension induced by monocrotaline injection. Myocytes were isolated by enzyme digestion using a Langendorff apparatus. Changes in intracellular calcium concentrations ([Ca2+]i) were recorded using a fura-2 fluorescence microscopic technique.
