What is Tadalafil?
Tadalafil (Cialis) is a selective PDE5 inhibitor with the longest half-life in its class (~17.5hr, duration up to 36hr). Prevents cGMP degradation in smooth muscle, sustaining NO-mediated vasodilation. FDA-approved for erectile dysfunction, BPH, and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH/Adcirca). CAS 171596-29-5.
Research Applications
NO/cGMP Pathway PDE5 inhibition → sustained cGMP → smooth muscle relaxation Pulmonary Hypertension PAH vasodilation — Adcirca indication — pulmonary vascular resistance Long-Duration Protocol 17.5hr half-life — chronic dosing and sustained inhibition studies Cardiac Preload/Afterload Venodilation and arterial effects — cardiac function modelling vs PT-141 Pairing Peripheral PDE5 (tadalafil) + central MC4R (PT-141) — erectile physiology
