New Deoxycholic Acid Derived Tyrosyl-DNA Phosphodiesterase 1 Inhibitors Also Inhibit Tyrosyl-DNA Phosphodiesterase 2 [PDF]
A series of deoxycholic acid (DCA) amides containing benzyl ether groups on the steroid core were tested against the tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) and 2 (TDP2) enzymes.

Effect of phosphodiesterase inhibitors on platelet function [PDF]
Phosphodiesterase enzymes (PDEs) play a pivotal role in regulating platelet activity by modulating intracellular levels of cAMP and cGMP. Modulation of PDE-2, -3 and -5 activity by suitable inhibitors has been found to reduce platelet activity, and thus ...

Phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors: Raynaud's and beyond
Phosphodiesterases (PDE) are a group of ubiquitously present enzymes involved in regulation of various cellular pathways. PDE5 acts to metabolize cyclic guanosine monophosphate (GMP).

Chemotherapeutic Efficacy of Phosphodiesterase Inhibitors in Chagasic Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Molecular mechanisms of Trypanosoma cruzi (Tc)-induced Chagasic cardiomyopathy (CCM) are not well understood. The NO-cGMP-PKG1α pathway maintains cardiac homeostasis and inotropy and may be disturbed due to phosphodiesterase (PDE5)-mediated cGMP ...

Phosphodiesterase Inhibitors [PDF]
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.

The role of Phosphodiesterase-1 and its natural product inhibitors in Alzheimer’s disease: A review
Phosphodiesterase-1 (PDE1) is a versatile enzyme that has surprisingly received considerable attention as a possible therapeutic target in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) because it maintains the homeostasis of 3ʹ,5ʹ-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and 3ʹ,

Phosphodiesterase Inhibitors: Present and Future
Phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors act on specific phosphodiesterase enzymes (fundamentally 3, 4 and 5), which are characterized by their expression in different organs.

Phosphodiesterase inhibitors [PDF]
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 ...
