IBMX, 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine, like other methylated xanthine derivatives, is both a

  1. competitive nonselective phosphodiesterase inhibitor [1] which raises intracellular cAMP, activates PKA, inhibits TNF-alpha [2][3] and leukotriene [4] synthesis, and reduces inflammation and innate immunity [4] and
  2. nonselective adenosine receptor antagonist.[5]

As a phosphodiesterase inhibitor, IBMX has IC50 = 2-50 μM [6] and does not inhibit PDE8 or PDE9.[7]
