Description
An adenosine A2B receptor antagonist; selective for adenosine A2B receptors over A1, A2A, and A3 receptors (IC50s = 66, 1,300, 820, and >6,700 nM, respectively); reduces increases in the levels of IL-6 induced by the adenosine receptor agonist NECA in LL29 fibroblast cells (IC50 = 185 nM); decreases FITC-induced increases in the levels of IL-6 in lung homogenates and cell numbers in BALF and reduces silica-induced increases in the levels of TGF-β1 in lung homogenates, but not cell numbers in BALF, in mouse models of pulmonary fibrosis at 500 mg/kg
