Why humans need type 5 phosphodiesterase inhibitors [PDF]
SummaryErectile dysfunction (ED) is a widespread medical condition affecting millions of males at any age and requiring medical treatment. ED may simply reflect a limit of human physiology, yet ED equates to genetic death and the high prevalence of ED is a clear evolutionary paradox.

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.

Cardiovascular Effects of Phosphodiesterase Type 5 Inhibitors
ABSTRACT Introduction Phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors are widely used as first-line therapy for erectile dysfunction (ED). Their efficacy and safety combined with an increasing understanding of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)-regulated mechanisms have triggered a number of attempts to

The effect of phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors on cerebral blood flow in humans: A systematic review. [PDF]
Agents that augment cerebral blood flow (CBF) could be potential treatments for vascular cognitive impairment. Phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors are vasodilating drugs established in the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED) and pulmonary hypertension.

COVID-19 and phosphodiesterase enzyme type 5 inhibitors
COVID-19 pathology is mainly associated to a pulmonary disease which sometimes might result in an uncontrollable storm related to inflammatory diseases which could be fatal. It is well known that phosphodiesterase enzyme type 5 inhibitors (PDE5Is), such as sildenafil, have been successfully developed for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension;
