Bifunctional Sildenafil Diazeniumdiolates Acting as Phosphodiesterase 5 Inhibitors and Nitric Oxide Donors ̶ Towards Wound Healing.
Chembiochem : a European Journal of Chemical Biology 2024 March 3
Inefficient wound healing poses a global health challenge with a lack of efficient treatments. Wound healing issues often correlate with low endogenous nitric oxide (NO) levels. While exogenous delivery with NO-releasing compounds represents a promising therapeutic strategy, controlling the release of the highly reactive NO remains challenging. Phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) inhibitors, like sildenafil, have also been shown to promote wound healing. This study explores hybrid compounds, combining NO-releasing diazeniumdiolates with a sildenafil-derived PDE5 inhibitor. One compound demonstrated a favorable NO-release profile, triggered by an esterase (prodrug), and displayed in vitro nanomolar inhibition potency against PDE5 and thrombin-induced platelet aggregation. Both factors are known to promote blood flow and oxygenation. Thus, our findings unveil promising prospects for effective wound healing treatments.
