The Role of Phosphodiesterase Inhibitors in the Management of Cavernositis With Multifocal Abscesses: A Report of Case Series

Sexual Medicine, 2020
Introduction: Cavernositis is a rare acute infection of the corporal bodies of the penis. It might result in corporal cavernosal abscesses, fibrosis, and subsequently erectile dysfunction if the treatment is inadequate.

The evolution and structure of snake venom phosphodiesterase (svPDE) highlight its importance in venom actions

eLife, 2023
For decades, studies of snake venoms focused on the venom-ome-specific toxins (VSTs). VSTs are dominant soluble proteins believed to contribute to the main venomous effects and emerged into gene clusters for fast adaptation and diversification of snake ...

Cyclic AMP signalling in pancreatic islets [PDF]

, 2010
Cyclic 3'5'AMP (cAMP) is an important physiological amplifier of glucose-induced insulin secretion by the pancreatic islet β-cell, where it is formed by the activity of adenylyl cyclases, which are stimulated by glucose, through elevation in ...

Learned Conformational Space and Pharmacophore Into Molecular Foundational Model

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The Ouroboros model introduces two orthogonal modules within a unified framework that independently learn molecular representations and generate chemical structures. This design enables flexible optimization strategies for each module and faithful structure reconstruction without prompts or noise.

Cilostazol induced migraine does not respond to sumatriptan in a double blind trial

The Journal of Headache and Pain, 2018
Background Cilostazol is an inhibitor of phosphodiesterase 3 and thus causes accumulation of cAMP. It induces migraine-like attacks in migraine patients. Whether the cilostazol model responds to sumatriptan in migraine patients and therefore is valid for

Palmitoylation‐Mediated Ubiquitination of SRPK1 Regulates Ferroptosis in High‐Fat‐Induced Erectile Dysfunction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Elevated exogenous palmitic acid promotes the S‐palmitoylation of SRPK1 in endothelial cells, a dynamic process governed by ZDHHC24 and APT1. This post‐translational modification strengthens the interaction between SRPK1 and the E3 ubiquitin ligase MIB1, thereby facilitating the proteasomal degradation of SRPK1.

Pre-treatment with sumatriptan for cilostazol induced headache in healthy volunteers

The Journal of Headache and Pain, 2018
Background Previous studies indicate that sumatriptan is not effective when second messenger levels are high as after cilostazol provocation. Therefore, we have conducted the present study, where sumatriptan is administrated as pretreatment before cAMP ...

RPS3‐Enriched Extracellular Vesicles Mediate Liver‐Spinal Cord Inter‐Organ Communication

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Spinal cord injury activates the liver to send extracellular vesicles loaded with RPS3 protein to the lesion site. These vesicles are taken up by neural stem cells and astrocytes, triggering NF‐κB signaling, impairing the regeneration of neurons and myelin, and promotes harmful inflammation, ultimately hindering recovery.

Abnormal modulation of cell protective systems in response to ischemic/reperfusion injury is important in the development of mouse sickle cell hepatopathy

Haematologica, 2011
Background Sickle cell disease, a genetic red cell disorder inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, occurs throughout the world. Hepatic dysfunction and liver damage may be present in sickle cell disease, but the pathogenesis of these conditions is ...

AXL Promotes Ischemic Myelin Repair Through Alleviating Myelin Debris Deposition and Lipid Droplets Accumulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Microglial AXL drives white matter repair after stroke by orchestrating the cleanup of myelin debris. Mechanistically, AXL signals through EGR1 to boost Smpd1 transcription, regulating sphingolipid metabolism and preventing lipid droplet toxicity. Restoring the pathway with ASM therapy mitigates damage, positioning AXL as a key node for therapeutic ...
