future prevalence studies they should be considered as a separate category, including estimates of disability-adjusted life years (DALY) as a measure of overall disease burden. Numbers of ocular infections are uniquely affected by outbreaks as well as endemic transmission, and their control frequently ...
through the activity ofphosphodiesterases(PDEs). Penile detumescence is in part the result ofphosphodiesterase inhibitor type 5(PDE-5), which breaks downcGMP. The smooth muscle regains its tone when cGMP is degraded by PDE-5. Competitive inhibition of the action of PDE-5 with inhibitors enhance...

This version provides concise overviews of the key properties of nearly 1800 human drug targets with an emphasis on selective pharmacology (where available), plus links to an open access knowledgebase of drug targets and their ligands (www.guidetopharmacology.org), which provides more detailed ...
underestimate both their statistical significance and economic impact. For example, studies from low vision services in Latin America indicate toxoplasmosis as one of the leading causes of childhood blindness, yet this valid source of information is not currently incorporated into global estimates. Since...
The domain organization of a hypothetical AKAP with modular interaction domains is shown. The carboxy-terminal targeting domain mediates PKA compartmentalization. PPI sites for binary complex formation with substrates and/or additional interactors such as PDEs or the ubiquitin–proteasome system (UPS) are...
B.G.Livett, inEncyclopedia of Neuroscience, 2009 Control of Catecholamine Biosynthesis In vivo, the synthesis ofcatecholamineswithin the adrenalchromaffin cellsis subject to neural andhormonal regulation.Tyrosine hydroxylase(TH) is the rate-limitingenzyme, and is known to be controlled acutely (minutes...
The 17α-hydroxylase function of the enzyme is all that is required for continued synthesis of glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid. Thus, the regulation of the second function, the scission of the 17-20 bond (lyase), is important because it commits the substrate toward the pathway of sex ...
Nitric Oxide (NO) is a potent signaling molecule involved in the regulation of various cellular mechanisms and pathways under normal and pathological conditions. NO production, its effects, and its efficacy, are extremely sensitive to aging-related chang
To be exact, it is detected by a decrease in fluorescence, due to the improved hydrolytic effect of PDEs in anthranyloyl-cAMP [104]. The rate of cAMP hydrolysis is linearly correlated with different concentrations of YTX between 0.5 and 10 μM. Structural assays (immunoassays) based on ...
