Cardiac Uses of Phosphodiesterase-5 Inhibitors
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 ...

Antioxidant effects of phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors [PDF]
This letter refers to ‘The phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor vardenafil reduces oxidative stress while reversing pulmonary arterial hypertension’ by Y.-F. Fan et al ., Cardiovascular Research (2013) 99, 395–403. Fan et al .1 have shown convincing results indicating that the phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) inhibitor vardenafil reduces oxidative stress and this

Induction of diabetes in three different mouse strains uniformly resulted in an increase in TNAP activity and a reduction in pyrophosphate (PPi) in the circulation. Inhibition of TNAP restored plasma PPi. Diabetes‐induced calcification in the media layer of the aorta was detected only in the Abcc6−/− strain, which is predisposed to ectopic ...
