Advances in targeting cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases

open access: yesNature Reviews Drug Discovery, 2014
Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs) catalyse the hydrolysis of cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP, thereby regulating the intracellular concentrations of these cyclic nucleotides, their signalling pathways and, consequently, myriad biological responses in health and disease.

Phosphodiesterases and Cyclic Nucleotide Signaling in Endocrine Cells [PDF]

open access: bronzeMolecular Endocrinology, 2000
The discovery of cyclic nucleotides as second messengers has paved the way to much of what we know about signal transduction and the mechanisms of hormone action. Even though other signaling pathways activated by growth factors are the focus of much attention, cyclic nucleotides remain among the most important players in hormone action. When envisioned

Co-crystal structures of PKG Iβ (92-227) with cGMP and cAMP reveal the molecular details of cyclic-nucleotide binding. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinases (PKGs) are central mediators of the NO-cGMP signaling pathway and phosphorylate downstream substrates that are crucial for regulating smooth muscle tone, platelet activation, nociception and memory formation.

A label-free LC/MS-based enzymatic activity assay for the detection of PDE5A inhibitors

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2023
Phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5), a cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase, controls the duration of the cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) signal by hydrolyzing cGMP to GMP.

A companion to the preclinical common data elements and case report forms for neuropathology studies in epilepsy research. A report of the TASK3 WG2 Neuropathology Working Group of the ILAE/AES Joint Translational Task Force

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract The International League Against Epilepsy/American Epilepsy Society (ILAE/AES) Joint Translational Task Force initiated the TASK3 working group to create common data elements (CDEs) for various aspects of preclinical epilepsy research studies, which could help improve the standardization of experimental designs.

Phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A): Regulator of Dopamine Agonist-Induced Gene Expression in the Striatum

open access: yesCells, 2022
Dopamine and other neurotransmitters have the potential to induce neuroplasticity in the striatum via gene regulation. Dopamine receptor-mediated gene regulation relies on second messenger cascades that involve cyclic nucleotides to relay signaling from ...

Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases in pancreatic islets [PDF]

open access: yesDiabetologia, 2003
Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs) comprise a family of enzymes (PDE1-PDE11) which hydrolyse cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP to their biologically inactive 5' derivatives. Cyclic AMP is an important physiological amplifier of glucose-induced insulin secretion.

Phosphodiesterase 7 inhibition preserves dopaminergic neurons in cellular and rodent models of Parkinson disease. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BACKGROUND: Phosphodiesterase 7 plays a major role in down-regulation of protein kinase A activity by hydrolyzing cAMP in many cell types. This cyclic nucleotide plays a key role in signal transduction in a wide variety of cellular responses.

The Receptor-Bound Guanylyl Cyclase DAF-11 Is the Mediator of Hydrogen Peroxide-Induced cGMP Increase in Caenorhabditis elegans [corrected].. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Adenosine 3', 5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) and guanosine 3', 5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) are well-studied second messengers that transmit extracellular signals into mammalian cells, with conserved functions in various other species such as ...
