papaverine and Metastase

papaverine has been researched along with Metastase in 2 studies

Papaverine: An alkaloid found in opium but not closely related to the other opium alkaloids in its structure or pharmacological actions. It is a direct-acting smooth muscle relaxant used in the treatment of impotence and as a vasodilator, especially for cerebral vasodilation. The mechanism of its pharmacological actions is not clear, but it apparently can inhibit phosphodiesterases and it may have direct actions on calcium channels.
papaverine : A benzylisoquinoline alkaloid that is isoquinoline substituted by methoxy groups at positions 6 and 7 and a 3,4-dimethoxybenzyl group at position 1. It has been isolated from Papaver somniferum.

"In developing a chemotherapeutic program for children with disseminated neuroblastoma, we established three human neuroblastoma lines in cell culture to study the effects of dibutyryl cyclic AMP, papaverine, 5-trifluoromethyl-2'-deoxyuridine, and cyclophosphamide on cell growth, biochemical behavior, and morphology."3.65A rationale for the treatment of metastatic neuroblastoma.
