  • 생쥐난자내에 cAMP phosphodiesterase(PDE)가 존재하는 가를 확인하고 cAMP PDE와 난자성숙간의 관계를 밝히기 위해 본 실험을 행하였다. 실험결과 생쥐난자내에는 Michaelis 상수 (Km)와 반응 최대속도 (Vmax)가 다른 두종의 cAMP PDE가 있다는 것이 밝혀졌다. 즉 하나는 Km 값이 $0.14 \\pm 0.01 \\muM$ 이고 Vmax 값이 $0.42 \\pm 0.07$ fmol cAMP hydrolyzed/oocyte/minute이고, 다른 하나는 Km 값이 $14.5 \\pm 2.0 \\muM$ 이고 Vmax 값이 $2.2 \\pm 0.5$ fmol cAMP hydrolyzed/oocyte/minute이다. 또한 PDE의 cAMP 분해작용은 난자성숙 억제제로 알려진 theophylline과 isobutyl-methylxanthine에 의해 저해되었으나 그 작용은 가역적이었다. 이 실험결과는 PDE의 활성저해로 인한 난자내의 cAMP의 축적이 결국 난자성숙을 억제하고 있다는 것을 암시하고 있다.

  • Eight furoquinoline alkaloids were purified from two plants belonging to the Rutaceae family. Kokusaginine. skimmianine, evolitrine, and confusameline were purified from Melicope confusa, and haplopine, robustine, dictamine, and $\gamma$-fagarine from Dictamnus albus. In this study, the eight furoquinoline alkaloids were examined for inhibitory potency against human phos-phodiesterase 5 (hPDE5A) in vitro. DNA encoding the catalytic domain of human PDE5A was amplified from the mRNA of T24 cells by RT-PCR and was fused to GST in an expression vector. GST-tagged PDE5A was then purified by glutathione affinity chromatography and used in inhibition assays. Of the eight alkaloids, $\gamma$-fagarine was the most potent inhibitor of PDE5A, and its single methoxy group at the C-8 position was shown to be critical for inhibitory activity. These results clearly illustrate the relationship between PDE5A inhibition and the methoxy group position in furoquinoline alkaloids.

  • OA-8159, a new Phosphodiesterase (PDE) 5 inhibitor, has exhibited potent erectogenic potential in a penile erection test in rats and anesthetized dogs. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of its erectogenic activity by measuring the activity of OA-8159 against a various PDE isozymes and assessing cGMP and cAMP formation in a rabbit corpus cavernosum in vitro. DA-8159 inhibited the PDE 5 activity in rabbit and human platelets, which the $IC_{50}$ was 5.84$\pm$1.70 nM and 8.25$\pm$2.90 nM, respectively. The $IC_{50}$ of DA-8159 on PDE 1, PDE2, PDE 3 and PDE 6 were 870$\pm$57.4 nM, $101\pm$5 $\mu$M, 52.0$\pm$3.53 $\mu$M and 53.3$\pm$2.47 nM, respectively. This suggests that DA-8159 is a potent, highly selective, competitive inhibitor of PDE 5-catalyzed cGMP hydrolysis. The rates of cGMP hydrolysis catalyzed by human platelets-derived PDE 5 as a function of the cGMP concentration (5~100 nM) and two-fixed DA-8159 concentration (11.3 and 18.8 nM) were investigated in order to characterize the mode of PDE 5 inhibition by DA-8159. DA-8159 increased the apparent 4K_{m}$ value for cGMP hydrolysis but had no effect on the apparent $V_{max}$, indicating a competitive mode of inhibition. DA-8159 increased the cGMP concentrations in the rabbit corpus cavernosum dose dependently. In the presence of sodium nitroprusside (SNP), DA-8159 significantly sti\mulated the accu\mulation of cGMP when compared to the control level. This indicated that the enhancement of a penile erection by DA-8159 involved the relaxation of the cavernosal smooth \muscle by NO-sti\mulated cGMP accu\mulation. In conclusion, DA-8159 is a selective inhibitor of PDE 5-catalyzed cGMP hydrolysis and the enhancement of a penile erection by DA-8159 is mediated by the relaxation of the cavernosal smooth \muscle by the NO-sti\mulated cGMP accu\mulation.

  • Phosphodiesterase(PDE)는 세포내에서 cAMP를 분해하는 효소로 세포의 신호 전달에 중요한 기능을 수행하는 것으로 알려져 왔다. 이전의 연구를 통해 군소에서 클로닝된 PDE4 long-form의 N-말단에 위치하는 16개 아미노산만으로 충분히 원형질막에 타기팅됨을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 ApPDE4의 N-말단 16개(L(N16))를 주형으로 해서 9-11번째와 15번째 아미노산들(RHW-C)을 무작위적으로 아마노산에 돌연변이를 주어서 세포내 타기팅에 미치는 영향을 분석해 보았다. 본 연구를 통해 원형질막과 골지체로 타기팅되는 돌연변이체들과 골지체로만 타기팅되는 돌연변이체들과, 소포체와 골지체로 동시에 타기팅되는 돌연변이체들과, 세포질에만 위치하는 돌연변이체들을 얻을 수 있었다. 또한, 이러한 타기팅에 palmitoylation이 영향을 주는지 확인하기 위해 palmitoylation 억제제인 2-BR을 처리해보니 대부분의 돌연변이체에서 원형질막 타기팅이 사라지는 것을 확인하였다. 이를통해 palmitoylation이 ApPDE4 돌연변이체들의 원형질막 타기팅에 중요하다는 사실을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 이들 돌연변이체들중 골지체로만 타기팅되는 L(N16,C3S/VV/G)-mRFP와 L(N16,C3S/LFS/R)-mRFP와 L(N16,EPL/R)-mRFP들의 경우는 골지체 타기팅에 인지질 중에 하나인 PI4P가 중요한 역할을 하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

  • Most of the process control algorithms in practice are based on the finite dimensional control theory. However, many chemical processes are described by partial differential equations (PDE's) and are infinite dimensional in nature due to spatial variation. Especially when the convection is dominant and thus diffusion can be ignored, chemical processes that are described by a system of first order hyperbolic PDE's. Such processes include tubular reactors, fixed bed reactors and pressure swinging adsorption. Conventionally such infinite dimensional systems described by PDE's are controlled by finite dimensional controllers that are designed through finite dimensional reduction of the process m...

Streptozotocin으로 당뇨병을 유발시킨 흰쥐의 지방세포에서 일어나는 Insulin-Sensitive Phosphodiesterase의 조절에 관한 연구 (Regulation of Insulin-Sensitive Cyclic Nucleotide Phosphodiesterase in Adipocytes of Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats)

  • Streptozotocin으로 당뇨병을 유발시킨 흰쥐를 모델로 하여 당뇨병으로 인한 인슐린의 antilipolytic action을 매개하는 insulin-sensitive cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase의 역할의 변화 가능성을 연구하였다. 흰쥐의 epididymal adipose tissue로부터 분리한 지방세포를 여러 약물과 toxin으로 전처치한 다음, insulin을 처치 또는 처치하지 않고 $37^{\circ}C$에서 15분 동안 incubation하였다. 그리고 나서 differential centrifugation으로 3 fractions로 분리한 다음 cAMP phosphodiesterase activity를 assay하였다. Insulin에 의한 PDE activities의 증가는 당뇨병군과 대조군 모두 crude microsomal (P2) fraction에서만 볼 수 있었다. P2 fraction을 2 nM insulin, $100\;{\mu}M$ isoproterenol, 또는 두 약물을 함께 처치하여 나타난 maximal effect는 두 군 모두에서 유의한 차이가 없었다. 그러나 basal PDE activities는 당뇨병균이 대조군에 비해 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 당뇨병군의 P2 fraction의 insulin-sensitive PDE activities는 $A_{1}$ adenosine receptor agonist 인 PIA에 의해서 영향을 받지 않은 반면, 대조군의 경우 PIA에 의해 basal PDE activities와 같게 감소하였다. 그리고 지방세포의 pertussis toxin에 대한 sensitivity는 당뇨병군이 대조군보다 더욱 민감하였다. 그러나 cholera toxin에 대한 sensitivity는 당뇨병군과 대조군 사이에 큰 차이를 볼 수 없었다. 이러한 결과로 보아 streptozotocin으로 당뇨병을 유발시킨 흰쥐의 지방세포에서, adenosine receptor와 같은 inhibitory receptor를 경유한 signalling의 감소는 $G_{i}$ proteins의 소실 또는 기능의 감소와 관련이 있으며, 또한 basal state에서 insulin-dependent PDE의 활성을 증가시키는 것으로 사료된다.

  • We have recently found that a detergent-resistant raft like membrane (DRM) can be prepared from bovine rod outer segment membranes as a low-density buoyant fraction in sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugation. G protein (transducin) and its effector enzyme (phosphodiesterase: PDE) drastically change their affinities to DRM in the process of phototransduction. We report here that the recruitment of transducin and/or $^2$PDE to DRM has close relationship with their states in signal transduction. Active T$\alpha$/PDE-complex has a high affinity to DRM, whereas inactive transducin, or inactive PDE are excluded from DRM. Active T$\alpha$/PDE-complex seems to bind to a GTPase activating protein (GRS9) in multi- protein complexes localized on DRM. Physiological significance of the multi-protein complex on the raft-like membrane in vertebrate phototransduction would be discussed.

  • CEMTool is a command style design and analyzing package for scientific and technological algorithm and a matrix based computation language. In this paper, we present a compiler based approach to the implementation of the command mode generalized PDE solver in CEMTool. In contrast to the existing MATLAB PDE Toolbox, our proposed FEM package can deal with the combination of the reserved words such as "laplace" and "convect". Also, we can assign the border lines and the boundary conditions in a very easy way. With the introduction of the lexical analyzer and the parser, our FEM toolbox can handle the general boundary condition and the various PDEs represented by the combination of equations. That is why we need not classify PDE as elliptic, hyperbolic, parabolic equations. Consequently, with our new FEM toolbox, we can overcome some disadvantages of the existing MATLAB PDE Toolbox.

  • Inhibitors of type IV phosphodiesterase (PDE IV) are currently being developed as new therapeutic agents for asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) and arthritis. Unfortunately, the anti-inflammatory effect of PDE IV inhibitors has been considered to be associated to some extent with vomiting as adverse effect. The first generation PDE IV inhibitor, rolipram, was known to induce emesis at clinical trials. (omitted)
