Phosphodiesterase III inhibitor promotes drainage of cerebrovascular β-amyloid

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2014
Brain amyloidosis is a key feature of Alzheimer's disease (AD). It also incorporates cerebrovascular amyloid β (Aβ) in the form of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) involving neurovascular dysfunction.

Cinobufagin Directly Targets PDE4D to Disrupt Fibroblast–Dendritic Cell Crosstalk in Atopic Dermatitis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐cell RNA sequencing revealed that MIF signaling drives inflammatory fibroblastmyeloid cell crosstalk in atopic dermatitis. Cinobufagin, a potent PDE4D inhibitor, suppresses MIF and reduces inflammation by restoring the cAMP/PKA/CREB pathway. Genetic knockout validates PDE4D as a key driver and promising therapeutic target for atopic dermatitis ...

Synergistic effect of phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitor and serum on migration of endotoxin-stimulated macrophages. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Macrophage migration is an essential step in host defense against infection and wound healing. Elevation of cAMP by inhibiting phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4), enzymes that specifically degrade cAMP, is known to suppress various inflammatory responses in ...

cAMP-Signalling Regulates Gametocyte-Infected Erythrocyte Deformability Required for Malaria Parasite Transmission. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Blocking Plasmodium falciparum transmission to mosquitoes has been designated a strategic objective in the global agenda of malaria elimination. Transmission is ensured by gametocyte-infected erythrocytes (GIE) that sequester in the bone marrow and at ...

Phosphodiesterase 4D: an enzyme to remember [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, 2015
Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is one of the second messengers critically involved in the molecular mechanisms underlying memory formation. In the CNS, the availability of cAMP is tightly controlled by phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4), a family of enzymes that degrades the cyclic nucleotide to inactive AMP.

Hepatic ENTPD5 Is Critical for Maintaining Metabolic Homeostasis and Promoting Brown Adipose Tissue Thermogenesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ENTPD5‐mediated conversion of extracellular adenosine triphosphate to ADP of hepatocytes is critical for maintaining hepatic glucose/lipid metabolism and promoting brown adipose tissue thermogenesis via the inhibition of adrenomedullin expression and secretion.

Evaluating aminophylline and progesterone combination treatment to modulate contractility and labor‐related proteins in pregnant human myometrial tissues

open access: yesPharmacology Research & Perspectives, 2021
Progesterone (P4) and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) are regarded as pro‐quiescent factors that suppress uterine contractions during pregnancy.

TDP1 deficiency sensitizes human cells to base damage via distinct topoisomerase I and PARP mechanisms with potential applications for cancer therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Base damage and topoisomerase I (Top1)-linked DNA breaks are abundant forms of endogenous DNA breakage, contributing to hereditary ataxia and underlying the cytotoxicity of a wide range of anti-cancer agents.

Improving Memory: A Role for Phosphodiesterases [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Pharmaceutical Design, 2006
During the last decennia, our understanding of the neurobiological processes underlying learning and memory has continuously improved, leading to the identification of targets for the development of memory-enhancing drugs. Here we review a class of drugs which has more recently been identified: the phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors.

7‐Ketodeoxycholic Acid Promotes Colonic Mucosal Healing by Inducing Calcium Release from Endoplasmic Reticulum via the TGR5‐IP3R Pathway

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
7‐KDCA functions by driving intestinal epithelial cell migration through induction of calcium release from the endoplasmic reticulum. The findings emphasize a previously unrecognized property of 7‐KDCA in regulating cell migration, a required process for effective epithelial restitution and repair that is particularly critical for patients with UC to ...
