Phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors and erectile dysfunction

open access: yesSouth African Family Practice, 2010
Erectile dysfunction (ED) affects millions of men globally and may adversely affect his, and potentially his partners’, quality of life. The introduction, a decade ago, of the phosphodiesterase type 5- (PDE5-) inhibitors has revolutionised the management

Phosphodiesterase Inhibitors: Present and Future

open access: yesBarcelona Respiratory Network Reviews, 2023
Phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors act on specific phosphodiesterase enzymes (fundamentally 3, 4 and 5), which are characterized by their expression in different organs.

Cardiac Uses of Phosphodiesterase-5 Inhibitors

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2012
Phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors (PDE5Is) improve erectile function by enhancing nitric oxide availability in the penis and its supplying vasculature, resulting in vasodilation and increased blood flow. PDE5Is might benefit cardiovascular diseases because phosphodiesterase-5 is also located elsewhere in the body, including the pulmonary and systemic ...

The wonders of phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors: A majestic history

open access: yesAnnals of Medical and Health Sciences Research, 2016
The Nobel Prize winning discovery of nitric oxide (NO) in 1986 was the starting point for a new innovation in drug discovery. NO acting as a mediator at different physiological systems is believed to be involved in many physiological and pathological conditions through the formation of the second messenger cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP).

Phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors for pulmonary hypertension [PDF]

open access: yesCochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2017
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) comprises a group of complex and heterogenous conditions, characterised by elevated pulmonary artery pressure, and which left untreated leads to right-heart failure and death. PH includes World Health Organisation (WHO) Group 1 pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH); Group 2 consists of PH due to left-heart disease (PH-LHD ...
