Nitric oxide activates AMPK by modulating PDE3A in human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2020
Phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE3), of which there are two isoforms, PDE3A and PDE3B, hydrolyzes cAMP and cGMP—cyclic nucleotides important in the regulation of pulmonary vascular tone.

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.

Changing trends in anabolic‐androgenic steroid use within Scottish prisons: Detection, prevalence, and quantitation

open access: yesDrug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
This study reports the qualitative and quantitative detection of anabolic‐androgenic steroids (AASs) in seized samples from prisons. Since 2022 there has been an increase in AAS detections with oxymetholone the most prevalent AAS, followed by metandienone, methyltestosterone, and oxandrolone.

Effects of diet and antihyperglycemic drugs on erectile dysfunction: A systematic review

open access: yesAndrology, Volume 11, Issue 2, Page 282-294, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Erectile dysfunction is recognized as one of the complications of diabetes mellitus. To date, a wide gap of knowledge is present on the efficacy of pharmacological treatments of diabetes mellitus on erectile function, acting not only through metabolic control. Similarly, the effects of different diet regimens on erectile dysfunction

Mammalian Glycerophosphodiester Phosphodiesterases [PDF]

open access: yesBioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2007
Bacterial glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterases (GP-PDEs), GlpQ and UgpQ, are well-characterized periplasmic and cytosolic proteins that play critical roles in the hydrolysis of deacylated glycerophospholipids to glycerol phosphate and alcohol, which are utilized as major sources of carbon and phosphate.

Alterations of Phosphodiesterases in Adrenocortical Tumors [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2016
Alterations in the cyclic (c)AMP-dependent signaling pathway have been implicated in the majority of benign adrenocortical tumors (ACTs) causing Cushing syndrome (CS). Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) are enzymes that regulate cyclic nucleotide levels, including cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP).

Vericiguat improves cardiac remodelling and function in rats with doxorubicin‐induced cardiomyopathy

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Vericiguat, a soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) stimulator, has been demonstrated effective in improving prognosis of patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. However, there are limited data concerning the effect of vericiguat in patients with doxorubicin (DOX)‐induced cardiomyopathy (DIC).

IGFBP5 antisense and short hairpin RNA (shRNA) constructs improve erectile function by inducing cavernosum angiogenesis in diabetic mice

open access: yesAndrology, Volume 11, Issue 2, Page 358-371, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Background The incidence of diabetic erectile dysfunction (ED) is rapidly increasing, and due to the severe angiopathy caused by diabetes, current drugs are ineffective at treating ED. Insulin‐like growth factor‐binding protein 5 (IGFBP5) promotes cell death and induces apoptosis in various cell types.

Bayesian analysis of longitudinal studies with treatment by indication [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
It is often of interest in observational studies to measure the causal effect of a treatment on time-to-event outcomes. In a medical setting, observational studies commonly involve patients who initiate medication therapy and others who do not, and the goal is to infer the effect of medication therapy on time until recovery, a pre-defined level of ...

Poor communication impairs optimal care of patients with heart failure and erectile dysfunction

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Heart failure (HF) and erectile dysfunction (ED) share numerous risk factors and pathogenetic mechanisms, resulting in a high prevalence of ED among male patients with HF. This questionnaire‐based study aimed to better understand the patient's journey from a patient perspective and that of healthcare professionals (HCPs) regarding ...
