Phosphodiesterase inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, 2006
Phosphodiesterases are a diverse family of enzymes that hydrolyse cyclic nucleotides and thus play a key role in regulating intracellular levels of the second messengers cAMP and cGMP, and hence cell function. Theophylline and papaverine have historically been used therapeutically and are known to be weak inhibitors of PDE, but to what extent this ...

Phosphodiesterase Inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Cardiovascular Forum Journal, 2019
Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) comprise a superfamily with 11 subfamilies. Within these families, more than 40 isoforms are expressed. Phosphodiesterase-3 inhibitors (PDE3i) are used as inotrope/vasodilators for acute heart failure (HF), and PDE5i for pulmonary hypertension and erectile dysfunction.

Apremilast prevents blistering in human epidermis and stabilizes keratinocyte adhesion in pemphigus

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Pemphigus vulgaris is a life-threatening blistering skin disease caused by autoantibodies which destabilize cell adhesion of keratinocytes. The phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitor apremilast prevents skin blistering by stabilizing the keratin filament ...

Effect of phosphodiesterase inhibitors on medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw in mice: a comparison of phosphodiesterase-4 and phosphodiesterase-5 inhibition

open access: yesActa Odontologica Scandinavica
Objective: Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw lacks proven pharmacological prevention. We compared a phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitor rolipram and a phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor sildenafil in a zoledronic acid– and dexamethasone–based mouse model ...
