A pathophysiological role of PDE3 in allergic airway inflammation.
Phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE3) and PDE4 regulate levels of cyclic AMP, which are critical in various cell types involved in allergic airway inflammation. Although PDE4 inhibition attenuates allergic airway inflammation, reported side effects preclude its application as an antiasthma drug in humans. Case reports showed that enoximone, which is a smooth muscle relaxant that inhibits PDE3, is benefici...

متن کاملThe pathophysiological role of acute inflammation after spinal cord injury
Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) causes irreparable severe motor and sensory dysfunction. Mechanical trauma rapidly leads to blood-spinal cord barrier disruption, neural cell death, axonal damage, and demyelination, followed by a cascade of secondary injury that expands the additional inflammatory reaction at the lesion site. Although the role of inflammation in this phase is complex, a numbe...
متن کاملPathophysiological role of osteopontin in hepatic inflammation, toxicity, and cancer.
Osteopontin (OPN) is a highly modified integrin-binding extracellular matrix glycophosphoprotein produced by cells of the immune system, epithelial tissue, smooth muscle cells, osteoblasts, and tumor cells. Extensive research has elucidated the pivotal role of OPN in cell signaling that controls inflammation, tumor progression, and metastasis. OPN interaction with the integrin receptors express...
متن کاملPathophysiological role and therapeutic implications of inflammation in diabetic nephropathy.
Diabetes mellitus and its complications are becoming one of the most important health problems in the world. Diabetic nephropathy is now the main cause of end-stage renal disease. The mechanisms leading to the development and progression of renal injury are not well known. Therefore, it is very important to find new pathogenic pathways to provide opportunities for early diagnosis and targets fo...
