    PRODUCT INFORMATION Piclamilast Item No. 29170 CAS Registry No.: 144035-83-6 Formal Name: 3-(cyclopentyloxy)-N-(3,5-dichloro- 4-pyridinyl)-4-methoxy-benzamide O Synonyms: RP 73401, RPR 73401 Cl H MF: C18H18Cl2N2O3 FW: 381.3 N O Purity: ≥98% O Supplied as: A solid N Storage: -20°C Cl Stability: ≥2 years Information represents the product specifications. Batch specific analytical results are provided on each certificate of analysis. Laboratory Procedures Piclamilast is supplied as a solid. A stock solution may be made by dissolving the piclamilast in the solvent of choice, which should be purged with an inert gas. Piclamilast is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and DMSO. The solubility of piclamilast in ethanol is approximately 20 mM and approximately 100 mM in DMSO. Description 1 Piclamilast is a phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitor (IC50 = 0.31 nM). It is selective for PDE4 over PDE1, 2,3 PDE2, PDE3, PDE5, and PDE7A in cell-free assays (IC50s = >100, 40, >100, 14, and >10 μM, respectively). Piclamilast inhibits superoxide production by guinea pig eosinophils and histamine-induced contraction 1,4 in isolated guinea pig trachea (IC50s = 24 and 2 nM, respectively). It inhibits eosinophil, neutrophil, lymphocyte, and TNF-α accumulation in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) from ovalbumin-sensitized 5 rats (ED50s = 23.8, 14.1, 19.5, and 14.4 μmol/kg, respectively). Piclamilast also inhibits ovalbumin-induced 2 bronchoconstriction in a guinea pig model of asthma (ED50 = 0.033 mg/kg). References 1. Ashton, M.J., Cook, D.C., Fenton, G., et al.

  • Phosphodiesterase Type 5 Inhibitor Sildenafil Decreases the Proinflammatory Chemokine CXCL10 in Human Cardiomyocytes and in Subjects with Diabetic Cardiomyopathy

Vannelli,3 Elisa Giannetta,4 Daniele Gianfrilli,4 Andrea M. Isidori,4 Silvia Migliaccio,1 Noemi Poerio,5 Maurizio Fraziano,5 Andrea Lenzi,4 and Clara Crescioli1,6 Abstract—T helper 1 (Th1) type cytokines and chemokines are bioactive mediators in inflammation underling several diseases and co-morbid conditions, such as cardiovascular and metabolic disorders. Th1 chemokine CXCL10 participates in heart damage initiation/progression; cardioprotection has been recently associated with sildenafil, a type 5 phosphodiesterase inhibitor. We aimed to evaluate the effect of sildenafil on CXCL10 in inflammatory conditions associated with diabetic cardiomyopathy. We analyzed: CXCL10 gene and protein in human cardiac, endothelial, and immune cells challenged by pro-inflammatory stimuli with and without sildenafil; serum CXCL10 in diabetic subjects at cardiomy- opathy onset, before and after 3 months of treatment with sildenafil vs. placebo. Sildenafil significantly −7 decreased CXCL10 protein secretion (IC50 =2.6×10 ) and gene expression in human cardiomyocytes and significantly decreased circulating CXCL10 in subjects with chemokine basal level ≥ 930 pg/ml, the cut-off value as assessed by ROC analysis. In conclusion, sildenafil could be a pharmacologic tool to control CXCL10-associated inflammation in diabetic cardiomyopathy.

  • Effects of Phosphodiesterase Inhibitors on Human Lung Mast Cell and Basophil Function
    British Journal of Pharmacology (1997) 121, 287 ± 295 1997 Stockton Press All rights reserved 0007 ± 1188/97 $12.00 Eects of phosphodiesterase inhibitors on human lung mast cell and basophil function Marie C. Weston, Nicola Anderson & 1Peter T. Peachell Department of Medicine & Pharmacology, University of Sheeld, Royal Hallamshire Hospital (Floor L), Glossop Road, Sheeld S10 2JF 1 The non-hydrolysable cyclic AMP analogue, dibutyryl (Bu2)-cyclic AMP, inhibited the stimulated release of histamine from both basophils and human lung mast cells (HLMC) in a dose-dependent manner. The concentrations required to inhibit histamine release by 50% (IC50) were 0.8 and 0.7 mM in basophils and HLMC, respectively. The cyclic GMP analogue, Bu2-cyclic GMP, was ineective as an inhibitor of histamine release in basophils and HLMC. 2 The non-selective phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors, theophylline and isobutyl-methylxanthine (IBMX) inhibited the IgE-mediated release of histamine from both human basophils and HLMC in a dose-dependent fashion. IBMX and theophylline were more potent inhibitors in basophils than HLMC. IC50 values for the inhibition of histamine release were, 0.05 and 0.2 mM for IBMX and theophylline, respectively, in basophils and 0.25 and 1.2 mM for IBMX and theophylline in HLMC. 3 The PDE 4 inhibitor, rolipram, attenuated the release of both histamine and the generation of sulphopeptidoleukotrienes (sLT) from activated basophils at sub-micromolar concentrations but was ineective at inhibiting the release of histamine and the generation of both sLT and prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) in HLMC. Additional PDE 4 inhibitors, denbufylline, Ro 20-1724, RP 73401 and nitraquazone, were all found to be eective inhibitors of mediator release in basophils but were ineective in HLMC unless high concentrations (1 mM) were employed.

  • Phosphodiesterase (PDE)
    Phosphodiesterase (PDE) Phosphodiesterase (PDE) is any enzyme that breaks a phosphodiester bond. Usually, people speaking of phosphodiesterase are referring to cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases, which have great clinical significance and are described below. However, there are many other families of phosphodiesterases, including phospholipases C and D, autotaxin, sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase, DNases, RNases, and restriction endonucleases, as well as numerous less-well-characterized small-molecule phosphodiesterases. The cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases comprise a group of enzymes that degrade the phosphodiester bond in the second messenger molecules cAMP and cGMP. They regulate the localization, duration, and amplitude of cyclic nucleotide signaling within subcellular domains. PDEs are therefore important regulators ofsignal transduction mediated by these second messenger molecules. www.MedChemExpress.com 1 Phosphodiesterase (PDE) Inhibitors, Activators & Modulators (+)-Medioresinol Di-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (R)-(-)-Rolipram Cat.

  • PDE1B KO Confers Resilience to Acute Stress-Induced Depression-Like Behavior
    PDE1B KO confers resilience to acute stress-induced depression-like behavior A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Molecular and Developmental Biology Program of the College of Medicine by Jillian R. Hufgard B.S. Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology April 2017 Committee Chair: Charles V. Vorhees, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Phosphodiesterases (PDE) regulate secondary messengers such as cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) by hydrolyzing the phosphodiester bond. There are over 100 PDE proteins that are categorized into 11 families. Each protein family has a unique tissue distribution and binding affinity for cAMP and/or cGMP. The modulation of different PDEs has been used to treat several disorders: inflammation, erectile dysfunction, and neurological disorders. Recently, PDE inhibitors were implicated for therapeutic benefits in Alzheimer’s disease, depression, Huntington’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, schizophrenia, and substance abuse. PDE1B is found in the caudate-putamen, nucleus accumbens, dentate gyrus, and substantia nigra–areas linked to depression. PDE1B expression is also increased after acute and chronic stress. Two ubiquitous Pde1b knockout (KO) mouse models, both removing part of the catalytic region, decreased immobility on two acute stress tests associated with depression-like behavior; tail suspension test (TST) and forced swim test (FST). The decreases in immobility suggest resistance to depression-like behavior, and these effects were additive when combined with two current antidepressants, fluoxetine and bupropion. The resistance to induced immobility was seen when PDE1B was knocked down during adolescence or earlier.
