Future options for disease intervention: important advances in phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitors

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Review, 2007
Current drug treatments for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) focus on managing symptoms of the disease and include short- and long-acting beta2-agonists, anticholinergic agents (ipratroprium, tiotropium), methylxanthines (theophylline) and ...

Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases as drug targets

open access: yesPharmacological Reviews
Cyclic nucleotides are synthesized by adenylyl and/or guanylyl cyclase, and downstream of this synthesis, the cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase families (PDEs) specifically hydrolyze cyclic nucleotides. PDEs control cyclic adenosine-3',5'monophosphate (cAMP) and cyclic guanosine-3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP) intracellular levels by mediating their quick

Cyclic AMP modulation of ion transport across frog retinal pigment epithelium. Measurements in the short-circuit state. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
In the frog retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), the cellular levels of cyclic AMP (cAMP) were measured in control conditions and after treatment with substances that are known to inhibit phosphodiesterase (PDE) activity (isobutyl-1-methylxanthine, SQ65442)
