Caffeine and rolipram affect Smad signalling and TGF-β1 stimulated CTGF and transgelin expression in lung epithelial cells. [PDF]
Caffeine administration is an important part of the therapeutic treatment of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in preterm infants. However, caffeine mediated effects on airway remodelling are still undefined.

HIV-1 gp120 Impairs Spatial Memory Through Cyclic AMP Response Element-Binding Protein
HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND) remain an unsolved problem that persists despite using antiretroviral therapy. We have obtained data showing that HIV-gp120 protein contributes to neurodegeneration through metabolic reprogramming.

Phosphodiesterase 4B: Master Regulator of Brain Signaling
Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) are the only superfamily of enzymes that have the ability to break down cyclic nucleotides and, as such, they have a pivotal role in neurological disease and brain development. PDEs have a modular structure that allows targeting

Chemical Stimulation of Rodent and Human Cortical Synaptosomes: Implications in Neurodegeneration
Synaptic plasticity events, including long-term potentiation (LTP), are often regarded as correlates of brain functions of memory and cognition. One of the central players in these plasticity-related phenomena is the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-

Stereospecificity of rolipram actions on eosinophil cyclic AMP-specific phosphodiesterase [PDF]
The stereospecificity of rolipram inhibition of particulate cyclic AMP-specific phosphodiesterase (PDE IV) from guinea-pig eosinophils has been investigated. (-)-Rolipram (IC50 = 0.22 +/- 0.08 microM) was 2.5-fold more potent than (+)-rolipram (IC50 = 0.58 +/- 0.05 microM) in inhibiting membrane-bound PDE IV. Solubilization of PDE IV with deoxycholate (
