1,9-Dideoxyforskolin is a derivative of Forskolin which unlike the parent compound is incapable of activating adenylate cyclase. Forskolin-induced stimulation of adenylate cyclase and increased cAMP levels is employed to study the modulation of ion channels and cAMP-dependent second messenger systems, and 1,9-Dideoxyforskolin serves as a negative control for cAMP-related Forskolin inductions. 1,9-Dideoxyforskolin mimics some activity of Forskolin, demonstrating alteration of K|+|channel activity, reversal of doxorubicin resistance in multidrug resistant sarcoma cells, protection against TNF-α-mediated cytotoxicity, and desensitization at GABA|A|receptors.
