Several recent studies demonstrate that receptor-mediated cAMP (adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate) production evokes marked change in magnesium ($Mg^{2+}$) homeostasis. The effects of dimaprit or/and phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors on the $Mg^{2+}$ release from perfused guinea pig heart and collagenase-dispersed myocytes was studied to clarify an association of $H_2-histaminergic$ receptor-mediated $Mg^{2+}$ regulation with intracellular cAMP-degradation system. $Mg^{2+}$ efflux was stimulated in perfused hearts and myocytes by IBMX (3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine), a calmodulin-sensitive PDE inhibitor, but not by RO 20-1724(4-(3-butoxy-4-methoxybenzyl)-2-imidazolidinone) or papaverine, cAMP-specific PDE inhibitors. $Mg^{2+}$ efflux was also be induced by dimaprit, a H-2-agonist. $Mg^{2+}$ effluxes induced by dimaprit were augmented by the presence of the PDE inhibitors. The augmentation of dimaprit-induced $Mg^{2+}$ effluxes by the PDE inhibitors were inhibited by ranitidine, a $H_2-antagonist$, and imipramine, a $Na^{+}-Mg^{2+}$ exchange inhibitor, in perfused hearts and myocytes and were also inhibited by amiloride in perfused hearts. These results suggest that the $H_2$-stimulated $Mg^{2+}$ effluxes from guinea pig heart can be regulated by the cytosolic nonspecific-dependent PDE systems and that it is induced by the $Na^{+}-Mg^{2+}$ exchanger stimulation.

서 론 : Phosphodiesterase (PDE) 억제제는 세포내 cAMP를 증가시키며, cAMP는 TGF-${\beta}1$에 의한 connective tissue growth factor (CTGF)의 발현을 억제하는 것으로 알러져 있다. 그러므로 저자들은 PDE 억제재가 TGF-${\beta}1$의 변화 없이 긴 섬유화를 억제할 수 있는지를 확인해 보고자 본 연구를 시행하였다. 방 법 : 백서에서 일측성 요관 결찰로 신 간질 섬유화를 유발하였다. 실험군에서는 PDE3 억제제인 cilostazol (1 g/L)이나 PDE5, PDE6, PDE8의 hybrid 억제제인 dipyridamole (750 mg/L)이 첨가된 음료수를 공급하였다. 일주일 후 신장을 적출하여 Masson-trichrome score를 평가하고, 신조직 조건배지에서 fibronectin과 TGF-${\beta}1$을 ELISA법으로 정량하였다. 결 과 : 대조군에 비해 cilostazol 군에서 Masson-trichrome score와 신조직 조건배지의 fibronectin 농도가 유의하게 낮았다(P<0.05). Dipyridamole군의 Masson-trichrome score와 조건배지의 fibronectin 농도도 대조군에 비해 낮아 보였으나 통계적 유의성을 보여주지 못했다. 신조직 조건배지의 TGF-${\beta}1$ 농도는 대조군, cilostazol군, dipyridamole군간에 차이가 없었다. 결 론 : 선택적 PDE3 억제제인 cilostazol은 TGF-${\beta}1$의 억제에 의존하지 않고 일측성 요로 폐쇄에 의한 신 섬유화를 억제하였다.

This report shows that hydroxyl radical, generated by a Fenton reaction involving adenosine $5'-diphosphate/Fe^{2+}$ complex ($5-15\;{\mu}M$) and $H_2O_2$ ($2\;{\mu}M$), induced differentiation of HL-60 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. This is evidenced by the increases in 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate- and fMLP-stimulated superoxide production capability. The cells exposed to hydroxyl radical for defined periods (24∼96 hr) continued to differentiate even after the hydroxyl radical generating system had been removed. The differentiated cells displayed fMLP-stimulated calcium mobilization and increased expression of myeloid-specific antigen CD11b and CD14. The extent of the differentiation was markedly reduced by desferrioxamine ($100\;{\mu}M$), dimethylthiourea (5 mM), N,N'-diphenyl-1,4-phenylenediamine ($2\;{\mu}M$), and N-acetyl-L-cysteine (5 mM). The induction of differentiation by hydroxyl radical was enhanced by 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine ($200\;{\mu}M$) and Ro-20-1724 ($8\;{\mu}M$), and inhibited by dipyridamole (2 ${\mu}M$). These results suggest that hydroxyl radicals may induce commitment of HL-60 cells to differentiate into more mature cells of myelomonocytic lineage through specific signal-transduction pathway that is modulated by phosphodiesterase inhibitors.

Whatmann chromatography paper(3MM)을 지지체로 사용하여 phosphite-triester법에 의해 미량의 염기가 부착된 5'-d(GAATTCCGGCCA)와 5'-d(GGAGCTGTC)의 두 oligodeoxyribonucleotide를 합성 하였다. Trityl yield 분석에 의하면 76.1${\%}$와 86.5${\%}$의 평균 coupling 수율을 각각 얻었다.두 oligodeoxyribonucleotide들을 HPLC를 이용하여 분리 정제할 수 있었고 snake venom phosphodiesterase와 bacterial alkaline phosphatase에 의해 분리 정량화할 수 있었으며 이때의 염기의 수는 합성을 시도한 염기수와 일치했다. 이처럼 paper를 지지체로 이용한 oligodeoxyribonucleotide의 합성은 값싸고 동시에 많은 염기가 부착된 미량의 DNA를 빠르고 짧은 기간에 수행할 수 있는 장점이 있다.

Background: Cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) plays an important role in the modulation of nociception. Although local sildenafil produces antinociception, by increasing cGMP through the inhibition of phosphodiesterase 5, the effect of spinal sildenafil has not been determined. The authors evaluated the effects of intrathecal sildenafil on the nociceptive behavior evoked by formalin injection and thermal stimulation. Methods: Lumbar intrathecal catheters were implanted into rats, with formalin and Hot-Box tests used as nociceptive models. The formalin-induced nociceptive behavior (flinching response) and withdrawal latency to radiant heat were measured, and the general behaviors also observed. Results: The intrathecal administration of sildenafil produced dose-dependent suppression of the flinches in both phases in the formalin test, and increased the withdrawal latency in the Hot-Box test. No abnormal behaviors were noted. Conclusions: Sildenafil, an inhibitor of phosphodiesterase 5, is active against the nociceptive state evoked in the spinal cord by formalin and thermal stimulations. Accordingly, spinal sildenafil may be useful in the management of pain.

Objective: The study assessed the developmental potential of germinal vesicle (GV) oocytes subjected to in vitro maturation (IVM) after prematuration culture with cilostamide (a phosphodiesterase-3 inhibitor) and the impact of cilostamide exposure on the morphology of meiosis II (MII) oocytes and subsequent embryo quality. Methods: In total, 994 oocytes were collected from 63 patients. Among 307 GV oocytes, 140 oocytes were selected for the experimental group and 130 oocytes for the control group. The denuded GV-stage oocytes were cultured for 6 hours with cilostamide in the experimental group and without cilostamide in the control group. After 6 hours, the oocytes in the experimental group were washed and transferred to fresh IVM medium. The maturational status of the oocytes in both groups was examined at 26, 36, and 48 hours. Fertilization was assessed at 18 hours post-intracytoplasmic sperm injection. Embryo quality was assessed on days 3 and 5. Results: In total, 92.1% of the oocytes remained in the GV stage, while 6.4% converted to the MI stage (p<0.01) after cilostamide exposure. In both groups, more MII oocytes were observed at 36 hours (25.8% vs. 21.5%) than at 26 hours (10.8% vs. 14.6%) and 48 hours (13% vs. 7.9%) (p>0.05). With the advent of cilostamide, blastocyst quality was better in the experimental group than in the control group (p<0.05). Conclusion: Cilostamide effectively blocked nuclear maturation and promoted cytoplasmic growth. Prematuration culture with cilostamide enabled synchronization between cytoplasmic and nuclear maturity, resulting in better blastocyst outcomes.

The emergence of phosphodiesterase (PDE) 5 inhibitors gave rise to the solution for erectile dysfunction, starting with the development of sildenafil. Although their efficacy in treating erectile dysfunction has been shown, the side effects of PDE5 inhibitors, especially sildenafil, must be taken into consideration. A 64-year-old man received 100 mg of sildenafil and experienced blue vision in both eyes; however, after a day or so, his symptoms improved. The symptoms disappeared when he stopped administering sildenafil, but reappeared when the medication was re-administered. Therefore, he discontinued sildenafil treatment and was prescribed udenafil instead. After that, visual adverse events no longer occurred. Causality assessment showed that in this case, sildenafil-induced cyanopsia was "certain" under the World Health Organization-Uppsala Monitoring Center (WHO-UMC) criteria and Korean causality assessment algorithm (Ver.2), and was "probable" according to the Naranjo scale. In addition, sildenafil also led to abnormal visual reactions in other cases. Sildenafil can also inhibit PDE6, which is present in retinal cells, unlike other PDE5 inhibitors. Thus, visual adverse reactions, such as blue vision, are the unique results of sildenafil, and other PDE5 inhibitors may be used to prevent them.

세포내 cAMP의 농도 변화가 Toxoplasma의 성장 및 증식에 미치는 영향을 검토하기 위하여 끽접 cAMP와 cAMP의 analogue를 첨가하거나 간접적으로 세포내 cAMP의 합성이나 분해를 담당한 효소들의 활성을 변화시 킴으로써 CAMP의 농도를 조절하여 그 효과를 측정하였다. HL-60세포를 숙주 세포로 사용하여 동수의 Toxoplasma를 첨가하여 배양하였으며, 처리 효과는 배양 세포계에서 Toxoplnsma에만 특이하게 표지되는 $^3H-uracil$과 Toxoplasma및 HL-60세포에 공통으로 표지되는 $^3H-thymidine$을 각각 매 12시간마다 2시간씩 배양하여 그 표지량을 측정하여 비교 분석하였다. 직접 cAMP와 cAMP의 analogue인 dbcAMP 및 br-cAMP를 첨가하였을 때, 각각 특이한 농도에서, 즉 1 mM, 0.5~5mM 및 0.1mM에서 Toxoplasma의 성장 및 증식을 향상시켰다. 이때, 성장 및 증식을 유도하는 시기 및 그 증가도에서도 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이 결과들은 세포내 cAMP의 농도를 증가시키도록 cAMP의 합성 및 분해에 관여하는 효소들의 황성을 변화 시켰을 때에도 같은 양상으로 나타났다. cAMP의 합성 효소인 adenylate cyclase의 활성제인 pNHppG, cAMP의 분해 효소인 cAMP phosphodiesterase의 활성제인 A23187과 imidazole 및 억제제인 IBMX, compound 48/80 및 theophylline을 각각 처리하였는데, 세포내 cAMP의 농도가 증가되었을 대에는 Toxoplasmn의 성장 및 증식 을 향상시켰으나, cAMP의 농도를 감소시켰을 때에는 억제하였다. 이 때 배양계에 독성을 일으키는 농도 이하에서 농도 의존성의 경향을 보였으며, 유도 시기 및 그 증가도에는 차이가 있었다. 따라서 세포 내에서 향상된 수준의 cAMP가 어떤 기전을 활성화시키며, 그 결과 세포질에서의 Toxcplasma의 성장 및 증식을 자극하게 된다는 것을 시사하였다.
