Phosphodiesterase 9 inhibitor explained
Phosphodiesterase 9 inhibitors or PDE9 inhibitors are a class of drugs that work by inhibiting the activity of PDE9. The first compound with this effect, BAY 73-6691, was reported in 2004. PDE9 inhibitors are under investigation for the treatment of obesity,[1] hepatic fibrosis,[2] Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia, other psychotic disorders, heart failure, and sickle cell anemia.[3] Drug candidates include CRD-733,[4] osoresnontrine, tovinontrine, and PF-04447943.[3] Cannabidiol acts as a PDE9 inhibitor in vitro.[5] There are no PDE9 inhibitors that have been approved as of 2023.[3]
