Forskolin is an activator of adenylate cyclase.

Description: Forskolin (Coleonol) is a natural product, an adenylate cyclase activator (EC50=0.5 µM). Forskolin increases cAMP levels, activates PXR and FXR, and induces autophagy. Forskolin produces positive inotropic effects in the heart, and has platelet anticoagulant and antihypertensive effects. Target:...

Forskolin is a naturally occurring diterpene from the Indian plant, Coleus forskohlii, that works as an activator of adenylate cyclase resulting in an increase in the intracellular concentration of cAMP. Solubility: Soluble in DMSO (5mg/ml) or ethanol (6mg/ml). Melting Point: 226-229ºC, Elemental Analysis:...

White to off-white powder. Soluble in DMSO, DMF or ethanol. Chemical. CAS: 66575-29-9. Formula: C22H34O7. MW: 410.5. Forskolin is a naturally occurring diterpene. It directly activates adenylyl cyclase through its catalytic subunit and is commonly used to raise levels of cAMP (an important signal carrier necessary...

Forskolin is a powerful activator of adenyklate cyclase, resulting in an increase of intracellular cAMP concentration.1,2 Activates adenylate cyclase leading to an increase in the intracellular concentration of cAMP. Widely used tool for the investigation of the role of cAMP as a second messenger with a broad range...
