Asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) is an endogenous inhibitor of NO synthesis, and elevated plasma levels of ADMA are associated with poor outcomes. Dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase-1 (DDAH1) is a methylarginine- metabolizing enzyme that reduces ADMA levels. We reported previously that a DDAH1 gene variant associated with increased renal DDAH1 mRNA transcription and lower plasma ADMA levels, but counterintuitively, a steeper rate of renal function decline.

Peripheral mononuclear cells from nine patients with ED of vascular origin and nine patients with ED of neurological origin were obtained. Fourteen age-matched volunteers with normal erectile function were used as control. Reduction in eNOS protein was observed in the mononuclear cells from patients with ED of vascular origin but not in those from neurological origin. Although sGC b1-subunit expression was increased in mononuclear cells from patients with ED, the sGC activity was reduced. However, only the patients with ED of vascular origin showed an increased expression of PDE-V. This work shows for the first time that, independently of the aetiology of ED, the expression of sGC b1-subunit was increased in circulating mononuclear cells; however, the expression of both eNOS and PDE-V was only modified in the circulating mononuclear cells from patients with ED of vascular origin.

    SCIENTIFIC DISCUSSION This module reflects the initial scientific discussion for the approval of VIAGRA. This scientific discussion has been updated until 1 December 2002. For information on changes after this date please refer to module 8B. 1. Introduction Male erectile dysfunction (ED) has been defined as the inability to attain and/or maintain penile erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual performance as part of the overall process of male sexual function (NIH Consensus Conference, 1993). ED can have a profound impact on the quality of life with subjects often reporting increased anxiety, loss of self-esteem, lack of self-confidence, tension and difficulty in the relationship with their partner. The prevalence of ED has been found to be associated with age. Complete ED has an estimated prevalence of about 5% in men aged 40 years to 15% at age 70 years. It should be recognised that desire, orgasmic capacity and ejaculatory capacity may be intact even in the presence of erectile dysfunction or may be deficient to some extent and contribute to the sense of inadequate sexual function. The term impotence, together with its pejorative implications, is less precise and should not be used. The degree of erectile dysfunction can vary and may range from a partial decrease in penile rigidity to complete erectile failure and the frequency of these failures may also range from “a few times a year” to “usually unable to obtain an erection”. ED is often multifactorial in etiology (organic, psychogenic, or mixed). Sometimes ED is related to stress problems with the sexual partner or transient psychological factors.
