General Description

8,8'-Ethylenebis[3,7-dihydro-1,3-dimethyl-2-thioxo-1H-purin-6(2H)-one], also known as ETP, is a chemical compound with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It belongs to the class of thioxanthines and is commonly used in the treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). ETP works by inhibiting phosphodiesterase, an enzyme that plays a role in inflammation and airway constriction. It also has the ability to scavenge free radicals, which helps to reduce oxidative stress in the body. ETP is typically administered through inhalation and has been shown to improve lung function and reduce symptoms in individuals with respiratory conditions. Additionally, it has the potential to be used in the treatment of other inflammatory diseases and conditions.
