Abstract
Lung cancer has a high incidence rate and requires more effective treatment strategies and drug options for clinical patients. EGFR is a common genetic alteration event in lung cancer that affects patient survival and drug strategy. Our study discovered aberrant aldolase A (ALDOA) expression and dysfunction in lung cancer patients with EGFR mutations. In addition to investigating relevant metabolic processes like glucose uptake, lactate production, and ATPase activity, we examined multi-omics profiles (transcriptomics, proteomics, and pull-down assays). It was observed that phosphodiesterase 3A (PDE3A) enzyme and ALDOA exhibit correlation, and furthermore, they impact M2 macrophage polarization through β-catenin and downstream ID3. In addition to demonstrating the aforementioned mechanism of action, our experiments discovered that the PDE3 inhibitor trequinsin has a substantial impact on lung cancer cell lines with EGFR mutants. The trequinsin medication was found to decrease the M2 macrophage polarization status and several cancer phenotypes, in addition to transduction. These findings have potential prognostic and therapeutic applications for clinical patients with EGFR mutation and lung cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Increasing SERCA2 (sarco[endo]-plasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase 2) activity is suggested to be beneficial in chronic heart failure, but no selective SERCA2-activating drugs are available. PDE3A (phosphodiesterase 3A) is proposed to be present in the SERCA2 interactome and limit SERCA2 activity. Disruption of PDE3A from SERCA2 might thus be a strategy to develop SERCA2 activators. METHODS Confocal microscopy, 2-color direct stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy, proximity ligation assays, immunoprecipitations, peptide arrays, and surface plasmon resonance were used to investigate colocalization between SERCA2 and PDE3A in cardiomyocytes, map the SERCA2/PDE3A interaction sites, and optimize disruptor peptides that release PDE3A from SERCA2. Functional experiments assessing the effect of PDE3A-binding to SERCA2 were performed in cardiomyocytes and HEK293 vesicles. The effect of SERCA2/PDE3A disruption by the disruptor peptide OptF (optimized peptide F) on cardiac mortality and function was evaluated during 20 weeks in 2 consecutive randomized, blinded, and controlled preclinical trials in a total of 148 mice injected with recombinant adeno-associated virus 9 (rAAV9)-OptF, rAAV9-control (Ctrl), or PBS, before undergoing aortic banding (AB) or sham surgery and subsequent phenotyping with serial echocardiography, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, histology, and functional and molecular assays. RESULTS PDE3A colocalized with SERCA2 in human nonfailing, human failing, and rodent myocardium. Amino acids 277-402 of PDE3A bound directly to amino acids 169-216 within the actuator domain of SERCA2. Disruption of PDE3A from SERCA2 increased SERCA2 activity in normal and failing cardiomyocytes. SERCA2/PDE3A disruptor peptides increased SERCA2 activity also in the presence of protein kinase A inhibitors and in phospholamban-deficient mice, and had no effect in mice with cardiomyocyte-specific inactivation of SERCA2. Cotransfection of PDE3A reduced SERCA2 activity in HEK293 vesicles. Treatment with rAAV9-OptF reduced cardiac mortality compared with rAAV9-Ctrl (hazard ratio, 0.26 [95% CI, 0.11 to 0.63]) and PBS (hazard ratio, 0.28 [95% CI, 0.09 to 0.90]) 20 weeks after AB. Mice injected with rAAV9-OptF had improved contractility and no difference in cardiac remodeling compared with rAAV9-Ctrl after aortic banding. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that PDE3A regulates SERCA2 activity through direct binding, independently of the catalytic activity of PDE3A. Targeting the SERCA2/PDE3A interaction prevented cardiac mortality after AB, most likely by improving cardiac contractility.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Phosphodiesterase 3A (PDE3A) gain-of-function mutations cause hypertension with brachydactyly (HTNB) and lead to stroke. Increased peripheral vascular resistance, rather than salt retention, is responsible. It is surprising that the few patients with HTNB examined so far did not develop cardiac hypertrophy or heart failure. We hypothesized that, in the heart, PDE3A mutations could be protective. METHODS We studied new patients. CRISPR-Cas9-engineered rat HTNB models were phenotyped by telemetric blood pressure measurements, echocardiography, microcomputed tomography, RNA-sequencing, and single nuclei RNA-sequencing. Human induced pluripotent stem cells carrying PDE3A mutations were established, differentiated to cardiomyocytes, and analyzed by Ca2+ imaging. We used Förster resonance energy transfer and biochemical assays. RESULTS We identified a new PDE3A mutation in a family with HTNB. It maps to exon 13 encoding the enzyme's catalytic domain. All hitherto identified HTNB PDE3A mutations cluster in exon 4 encoding a region N-terminally from the catalytic domain of the enzyme. The mutations were recapitulated in rat models. Both exon 4 and 13 mutations led to aberrant phosphorylation, hyperactivity, and increased PDE3A enzyme self-assembly. The left ventricles of our patients with HTNB and the rat models were normal despite preexisting hypertension. A catecholamine challenge elicited cardiac hypertrophy in HTNB rats only to the level of wild-type rats and improved the contractility of the mutant hearts, compared with wild-type rats. The β-adrenergic system, phosphodiesterase activity, and cAMP levels in the mutant hearts resembled wild-type hearts, whereas phospholamban phosphorylation was decreased in the mutants. In our induced pluripotent stem cell cardiomyocyte models, the PDE3A mutations caused adaptive changes of Ca2+ cycling. RNA-sequencing and single nuclei RNA-sequencing identified differences in mRNA expression between wild-type and mutants, affecting, among others, metabolism and protein folding. CONCLUSIONS Although in vascular smooth muscle, PDE3A mutations cause hypertension, they confer protection against hypertension-induced cardiac damage in hearts. Nonselective PDE3A inhibition is a final, short-term option in heart failure treatment to increase cardiac cAMP and improve contractility. Our data argue that mimicking the effect of PDE3A mutations in the heart rather than nonselective PDE3 inhibition is cardioprotective in the long term. Our findings could facilitate the search for new treatments to prevent hypertension-induced cardiac damage.

Abstract
Cyclic-AMP (cAMP), the first second messenger to be identified, is synthesized, and is universally utilized as a second messenger, and plays important roles in integrity, and function of organs, including heart. Through its coupling with other intracellular messengers, cAMP facilitates excitation-contraction coupling, increases heart rate and conduction velocity. It is degraded by a class of enzymes called cAMP-dependent phosphodiesterase (PDE), with PDE3 and PDE4 being the predominant isoforms in the heart. This highly diverse class of enzymes degrade cAMP and through anchoring proteins generates dynamic microdomains to target specific proteins and control specific cell functions in response to various stimuli. The impaired function of the anchoring protein either by inherited genetic mutations or acquired injuries results in altered intracellular targeting, and blunted responsiveness to stimulating pathways and contributes to pathological cardiac remodeling, cardiac arrhythmias and reduced cell survival. Recent genetic studies provide compelling evidence for an association between the variants in the anchoring protein PDE4DIP and atrial fibrillation, stroke, and heart failure.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE platelets possess not only haemostatic but also inflammatory properties, which combined are thought to play a detrimental role in thromboinflammatory diseases such as acute coronary syndromes and stroke. Phosphodiesterase (PDE) 3 and -5 inhibitors have demonstrated efficacy in secondary prevention of arterial thrombosis, partially mediated by their antiplatelet action. Yet it is unclear whether such inhibitors also affect platelets' inflammatory functions. Here, we aimed to examine the effect of the PDE3A inhibitor cilostazol and the PDE5 inhibitor tadalafil on platelet function in various aspects of thromboinflammation. Approach and results: cilostazol, but not tadalafil, delayed ex vivo platelet-dependent fibrin formation under whole blood flow over type I collagen at 1000 s-1. Similar results were obtained with blood from Pde3a deficient mice, indicating that cilostazol effects are mediated via PDE3A. Interestingly, cilostazol specifically reduced the release of phosphatidylserine-positive extracellular vesicles (EVs) from human platelets while not affecting total EV release. Both cilostazol and tadalafil reduced the interaction of human platelets with inflamed endothelium under arterial flow and the release of the chemokines CCL5 and CXCL4 from platelets. Moreover, cilostazol, but not tadalafil, reduced monocyte recruitment and platelet-monocyte interaction in vitro. CONCLUSIONS this study demonstrated yet unrecognised roles for platelet PDE3A and platelet PDE5 in platelet procoagulant and proinflammatory responses.

Abstract
Familial primary aldosteronism (PA) is rare and mostly diagnosed in early-onset hypertension (HT). However, 'sporadic' bilateral adrenal hyperplasia (BAH) is the most frequent cause of PA and remains without genetic etiology in most cases. Our aim was to investigate new genetic defects associated with BAH and PA. We performed whole-exome sequencing (paired blood and adrenal tissue) in six patients with PA caused by BAH that underwent unilateral adrenalectomy. Additionally, we conducted functional studies in adrenal hyperplastic tissue and transfected cells to confirm the pathogenicity of the identified genetic variants. Rare germline variants in phosphodiesterase 2A (PDE2A) and 3B (PDE3B) genes were identified in three patients. The PDE2A heterozygous variant (p.Ile629Val) was identified in a patient with BAH and early-onset HT at 13 years of age. Two PDE3B heterozygous variants (p.Arg217Gln and p.Gly392Val) were identified in patients with BAH and HT diagnosed at 18 and 33 years of age, respectively. A strong PDE2A staining was found in all cases of BAH in zona glomerulosa and/or micronodules (that were also positive for CYP11B2). PKA activity in frozen tissue was significantly higher in BAH from patients harboring PDE2A and PDE3B variants. PDE2A and PDE3B variants significantly reduced protein expression in mutant transfected cells compared to WT. Interestingly, PDE2A and PDE3B variants increased SGK1 and SCNN1G/ENaCg at mRNA or protein levels. In conclusion, PDE2A and PDE3B variants were associated with PA caused by BAH. These novel genetic findings expand the spectrum of genetic etiologies of PA.

Abstract
Glaucoma, a leading cause of blindness, has multifactorial causes, including environmental and genetic factors. We evaluated genetic risk factors of glaucoma with gene-gene interaction and explored modifications of genetic risk with gene-lifestyles interaction in adults >40 years. The present study included 377 subjects with glaucoma and 47,820 subjects without glaucoma in a large-scale hospital-based cohort study from 2004 to 2013. The presence of glaucoma was evaluated by a diagnostic questionnaire evaluated by a doctor. The genome-wide association study was performed to identify genetic variants associated with glaucoma risk. Food intake was assessed using a semiquantitative food frequency questionnaire. We performed generalized multifactor dimensionality reduction analysis to construct polygenetic-risk score (PRS) and explored gene × nutrient interaction. PRS of the best model included LIM-domain binding protein-2 (LDB2) rs3763969, cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2B (CDKN2B) rs523096, ABO rs2073823, phosphodiesterase-3A (PDE3A) rs12314390, and cadherin 13 (CDH13) rs12449180. Glaucoma risk in the high-PRS group was 3.02 times that in the low-PRS group after adjusting for confounding variables. For those with low serum glucose levels (<126 mg/dL), but not for those with high serum glucose levels, glaucoma risk in the high-PRS group was 3.16 times that in the low-PRS group. In those with high carbohydrate intakes (≥70%), but not in those with low carbohydrate intakes, glaucoma risk was 3.74 times higher in the high-PRS group than in the low-PRS group. The glaucoma risk was 3.87 times higher in the high-PRS group than in the low-PRS group only in a low balanced diet intake. In conclusion, glaucoma risk increased by three-fold in adults with a high PRS, and it can be reduced by good control of serum glucose concentrations and blood pressure (BP) with a balanced diet intake. These results can be applied to precision nutrition to reduce glaucoma risk.

Abstract
The PTH/PTHrP receptor (PTHR1) mediates the actions of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and PTH-related peptide (PTHrP) by coupling this G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) to the alpha-subunit of the heterotrimeric stimulatory G protein (Gsα) and thereby to the formation of cAMP. In growth plates, PTHrP-dependent activation of the cAMP/PKA second messenger pathway prevents the premature differentiation of chondrocytes into hypertrophic cells resulting in delayed growth plate closure. Heterozygous mutations in GNAS, the gene encoding Gsα, lead to a reduction in cAMP levels in growth plate chondrocytes that is sufficient to cause shortening of metacarpals and/or -tarsals, i. e. typical skeletal aspects of Albright's Hereditary Osteodystrophy (AHO). However, heterozygous mutations in other genes, including those encoding PTHrP, PRKAR1A, PDE4D, and PDE3A, can lead to similar or even more pronounced acceleration of skeletal maturation that is particularly obvious in hands and feet, and reduces final adult height. Genetic mutations other than those resulting in Gsα haploinsufficiency thus reduce intracellular cAMP levels in growth plate chondrocytes to a similar extent and thereby accelerate skeletal maturation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertension and brachydactyly syndrome (HTNB), also called Bilginturan syndrome, is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by severe salt-independent hypertension, a short stature, brachydactyly, and death from stroke before the age of 50 years when untreated. The purpose of the present study was to identify a PDE3A mutation leading to HTNB associated with vertebral artery malformation in a Chinese family. METHODS Peripheral blood samples were collected from all subjects for DNA extraction. Next-generation sequencing and Sanger sequencing were performed to identify the PDE3A mutation. A comparative overview was performed in the probands with HTNB caused by PDE3A mutations. RESULTS Genetic analysis identified a missense mutation in PDE3A, c.1346G>A, in the proband with HTNB. This mutation, resulting in p.Gly449Asp, was located in a highly conserved domain and predicted to be damaging by different bioinformatics tools. Cosegregation analyses showed that the proband inherited the identified mutation from her father. Antihypertensive therapy was effective for the proband. Comparative overview of HTNB probands with 9 different PDE3A mutations revealed phenotypic heterogeneity. CONCLUSIONS Genetic screening can significantly improve the diagnosis of HTNB patients at an early age. Our study not only adds to the spectrum of PDE3A mutations in the Chinese population and extends the phenotype of HTNB patients to include vertebral malformation but also improves the awareness of pathogenesis in HTNB patients. We emphasize the importance of antihypertensive treatment and long-term follow-up to prevent stroke and adverse cardiovascular events.

Abstract
We aimed to characterize the genetics of endothelial function and how this influences risk for cardiovascular diseases such as ischemic stroke. We integrated genetic data from a study of ultrasound flow-mediated dilatation of brachial artery in adolescents from ALSPAC (Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children; n=5214) with a study of ischemic stroke (MEGASTROKE: n=60 341 cases and 452 969 controls) to identify variants that confer risk of ischemic stroke through altered endothelial function. We identified a variant in PDE3A (Phosphodiesterase 3A), encoding phosphodiesterase 3A, which was associated with flow-mediated dilatation in adolescents (9-12 years of age; β[SE], 0.38 [0.070]; P=3.8×10-8) and confers risk of ischemic stroke (odds ratio, 1.04 [95% CI, 1.02-1.06]; P=5.2×10-6). Bayesian colocalization analyses showed the same underlying variation is likely to lead to both associations (posterior probability, 97%). The same variant was associated with flow-mediated dilatation in a second study in young adults (age, 24-27 years; β[SE], 0.47 [0.23]; P=0.047) but not in older adults (β[SE], -0.012 [0.13]; P=0.89). We conclude that a genetic variant in PDE3A influences endothelial function in early life and leads to increased risk of ischemic stroke. Subtle, measurable changes to the vasculature that are influenced by genetics also influence risk of ischemic stroke.

Abstract
Sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase acid-like 3b (SMPDL3b) is a lipid raft enzyme that regulates plasma membrane (PM) fluidity. Here we report that SMPDL3b excess, as observed in podocytes in diabetic kidney disease (DKD), impairs insulin receptor isoform B-dependent pro-survival insulin signaling by interfering with insulin receptor isoforms binding to caveolin-1 in the PM. SMPDL3b excess affects the production of active sphingolipids resulting in decreased ceramide-1-phosphate (C1P) content as observed in human podocytes in vitro and in kidney cortexes of diabetic db/db mice in vivo. Podocyte-specific Smpdl3b deficiency in db/db mice is sufficient to restore kidney cortex C1P content and to protect from DKD. Exogenous administration of C1P restores IR signaling in vitro and prevents established DKD progression in vivo. Taken together, we identify SMPDL3b as a modulator of insulin signaling and demonstrate that supplementation with exogenous C1P may represent a lipid therapeutic strategy to treat diabetic complications such as DKD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In this study, we aimed to investigate the mechanism of PDE3A downregulation in chemoresistant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells, its functional role in chemotherapy response and association with survival outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS The raw data of GDS5247 was downloaded from GEO datasets and reanalyzed. The expression of PDE3A in patients with NSCLC and its DNA methylation status were analyzed in NSCLC cohort in TCGA database. Cisplatin resistant A549/Cis cells and the parental A549 cells were used as the in vitro cell model. The association between PDE3A expression and overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in NSCLC patients with adenocarcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma, as well as the median OS and PFS, were assessed by Kaplan-Meier curves using Kaplan-Meier plotter. RESULTS PDE3A was significantly downregulated in chemoresistant NSCLC cells. Heat map of PDE3A expression and methylation in NSCLC patient cohort in TCGA database indicated a negative association between PDE3A expression and DNA methylation in lung adenocarcinoma. A549/Cis cells treated with 5-AZA-dC, a demethylation reagent, had significantly restored PDE3A expression. High PDE3A expression was associated with favorable OS (HR: 0.53, 95% CI: 0.41-0.68, p<0.0001) and PFS (HR: 0.54, 95% CI: 0.39-0.75, p<0.001) in patients with adenocarcinoma. However, in patients with squamous cell carcinoma, high PDE3A expression was associated with unfavorable OS (HR: 1.56, 95% CI: 1.08-2.24, p=0.017) and PFS (HR: 1.83, 95% CI: 1.02-3.29, p=0.04). CONCLUSIONS PDE3A is downregulated in chemoresistant NSCLC cells due to DNA hypermethylation. Enforced PDE3A expression can sensitize A549/Cis cells to cisplatin. High PDE3A expression is associated with better OS and PFS in patients with adenocarcinoma, but not in patients with squamous cell carcinoma.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS CUG-binding protein 1 (CUGBP1) is a multifunctional RNA-binding protein that regulates RNA processing at several stages including translation, deadenylation and alternative splicing, as well as RNA stability. Recent studies indicate that CUGBP1 may play a role in metabolic disorders. Our objective was to examine its role in endocrine pancreas function through gain- and loss-of-function experiments and to further decipher the underlying molecular mechanisms. METHODS A mouse model in which type 2 diabetes was induced by a high-fat diet (HFD; 60% energy from fat) and mice on a standard chow diet (10% energy from fat) were compared. Pancreas-specific CUGBP1 overexpression and knockdown mice were generated. Different lengths of the phosphodiesterase subtype 3B (PDE3B) 3' untranslated region (UTR) were cloned for luciferase reporter analysis. Purified CUGBP1 protein was used for gel shift experiments. RESULTS CUGBP1 is present in rodent islets and in beta cell lines; it is overexpressed in the islets of diabetic mice. Compared with control mice, the plasma insulin level after a glucose load was significantly lower and glucose clearance was greatly delayed in mice with pancreas-specific CUGBP1 overexpression; the opposite results were obtained upon pancreas-specific CUGBP1 knockdown. Glucose- and glucagon-like peptide1 (GLP-1)-stimulated insulin secretion was significantly attenuated in mouse islets upon CUGBP1 overexpression. This was associated with a strong decrease in intracellular cAMP levels, pointing to a potential role for cAMP PDEs. CUGBP1 overexpression had no effect on the mRNA levels of PDE1A, 1C, 2A, 3A, 4A, 4B, 4D, 7A and 8B subtypes, but resulted in increased PDE3B expression. CUGBP1 was found to directly bind to a specific ATTTGTT sequence residing in the 3' UTR of PDE3B and stabilised PDE3B mRNA. In the presence of the PDE3 inhibitor cilostamide, glucose- and GLP-1-stimulated insulin secretion was no longer reduced by CUGBP1 overexpression. Similar to CUGBP1, PDE3B was overexpressed in the islets of diabetic mice. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION We conclude that CUGBP1 is a critical regulator of insulin secretion via activating PDE3B. Repressing this protein might provide a potential strategy for treating type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Leptin signaling in the hypothalamus is critical for normal food intake and body weight regulation. Cumulative evidence suggests that besides the signal transducer and activator of transcription-3 (STAT3) pathway, several non-STAT3 pathways including the phosphodiesterase-3B (PDE3B) pathway mediate leptin signaling in the hypothalamus. We have shown that PDE3B is localized in various hypothalamic sites implicated in the regulation of energy homeostasis and that the anorectic and body weight reducing effects of leptin are mediated by the activation of PDE3B. It is still unknown if PDE3B is expressed in the long form of the leptin-receptor (ObRb)-expressing neurons in the hypothalamus and whether leptin induces STAT3 activation in PDE3B-expressing neurons. In this study, we examined co-localization of PDE3B with ObRb neurons in various hypothalamic nuclei in ObRb-GFP mice that were treated with leptin (5mg/kg, ip) for 2h. Results showed that most of the ObRb neurons in the arcuate nucleus (ARC, 93%), ventromedial nucleus (VMN, 94%), dorsomedial nucleus (DMN, 95%), ventral premammillary nucleus (PMv, 97%) and lateral hypothalamus (LH, 97%) co-expressed PDE3B. We next examined co-localization of p-STAT3 and PDE3B in the hypothalamus in C57BL6 mice that were treated with leptin (5mg/kg, ip) for 1h. The results showed that almost all p-STAT3 positive neurons in different hypothalamic nuclei including ARC, VMN, DMN, LH and PMv areas expressed PDE3B. These results suggest the possibility for a direct role for the PDE3B pathway in mediating leptin action in the hypothalamus.

Abstract
In cardiac myocytes, the second messenger cAMP is synthesized within the β-adrenergic signaling pathway upon sympathetic activation. It activates Protein Kinase A (PKA) mediated phosphorylation of multiple target proteins that are functionally critical to cardiac contractility. The dynamics of cAMP are also controlled indirectly by cGMP-mediated regulation of phosphodiesterase isoenzymes (PDEs). The nature of the interactions between cGMP and the PDEs, as well as between PDE isoforms, and how these ultimately transduce the cGMP signal to regulate cAMP remains unclear. To better understand this, we have developed mechanistically detailed models of PDEs 1-4, the primary cAMP-hydrolyzing PDEs in cardiac myocytes, and integrated them into a model of the β-adrenergic signaling pathway. The PDE models are based on experimental studies performed on purified PDEs which have demonstrated that cAMP and cGMP bind competitively to the cyclic nucleotide (cN)-binding domains of PDEs 1, 2, and 3, while PDE4 regulation occurs via PKA-mediated phosphorylation. Individual PDE models reproduce experimentally measured cAMP hydrolysis rates with dose-dependent cGMP regulation. The fully integrated model replicates experimentally observed whole-cell cAMP activation-response relationships and temporal dynamics upon varying degrees of β-adrenergic stimulation in cardiac myocytes. Simulations reveal that as a result of network interactions, reduction in the level of one PDE is partially compensated for by increased activation of others. PDE2 and PDE4 exert the strongest compensatory roles among all PDEs. In addition, PDE2 competes with other PDEs to bind and hydrolyze cAMP and is a strong regulator of PDE interactions. Finally, an increasing level of cGMP gradually out-competes cAMP for the catalytic sites of PDEs 1, 2, and 3, suppresses their cAMP hydrolysis rates, and results in amplified cAMP signaling. These results provide insights into how PDEs transduce cGMP signals to regulate cAMP and how PDE interactions affect cardiac β-adrenergic response.

Abstract
The transcription factor nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) mediates inflammation and stress signals in cells. To test NF-κB in the control of hepatic insulin sensitivity, we inactivated NF-κB in the livers of C57BL/6 mice through deletion of the p65 gene, which was achieved by crossing floxed-p65 and Alb-cre mice to generate L-p65-knockout (KO) mice. KO mice did not exhibit any alterations in growth, reproduction, and body weight while on a chow diet. However, the mice on a high-fat diet (HFD) exhibited an improvement in systemic insulin sensitivity. Hepatic insulin sensitivity was enhanced as indicated by increased pyruvate tolerance, Akt phosphorylation, and decreased gene expression in hepatic gluconeogenesis. In the liver, a decrease in intracellular cAMP was observed with decreased CREB phosphorylation. Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase-3B (PDE3B), a cAMP-degrading enzyme, was increased in mRNA and protein as a result of the absence of NF-κB activity. NF-κB was found to inhibit PDE3B transcription through three DNA-binding sites in the gene promoter in response to tumor necrosis factor-α. Body composition, food intake, energy expenditure, and systemic and hepatic inflammation were not significantly altered in KO mice on HFD. These data suggest that NF-κB inhibits hepatic insulin sensitivity by upregulating cAMP through suppression of PDE3B gene transcription.

Abstract
Phosphodiesterase (PDE) 3 and PDE4, which degrade cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), are important regulators of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) 4 receptor signaling in cardiac tissue. Therefore, we investigated whether they interact with the 5-HT4(b) receptor, and whether A-kinase anchoring proteins (AKAPs), scaffolding proteins that bind to the regulatory subunit of protein kinase A (PKA) and contribute to the spacial-temporal control of cAMP signaling, are involved in the regulation of 5-HT4(b) receptor signaling. By measuring PKA activity in the absence and presence of PDE3 and PDE4 inhibitiors, we found that constitutive signaling of the overexpressed HA-tagged 5-HT4(b) receptor in HEK293 cells is regulated predominantly by PDE4, with a secondary role for PDE3 that is unmasked in the presence of PDE4 inhibition. Overexpressed PDE4D3 and PDE3A1, and to a smaller extent PDE4D5 co-immunoprecipitate constitutively with the 5-HT4(b) receptor. PDE activity measurements in immunoprecipitates of the 5-HT4(b) receptor confirm the association of PDE4D3 with the receptor and provide evidence that the activity of this PDE may be increased upon receptor stimulation with 5-HT. A possible involvement of AKAPs in 5-HT4(b) receptor signaling was uncovered in experiments using the St-Ht31 inhibitor peptide, which disrupts the interaction of AKAPs with PKA. However, St-Ht31 did not influence 5-HT4(b) receptor-stimulated PKA activity, and endogenous AKAP79 and gravin were not found in immunoprecipitates of the 5-HT4(b) receptor. In conclusion, we found that both PDE3A1 and PDE4D3 are integrated into complexes that contain the 5-HT4(b) receptor and may thereby regulate 5-HT4(b) receptor-mediated signaling.

Abstract
Obesity is linked to various diseases, including insulin resistance, diabetes, and cardiovascular disorders. The idea of inducing white adipose tissue (WAT) to assume characteristics of brown adipose tissue (BAT), and thus gearing it to fat burning instead of storage, is receiving serious consideration as potential treatment for obesity and related disorders. Phosphodiesterase 3B (PDE3B) links insulin- and cAMP-signaling networks in tissues associated with energy metabolism, including WAT. We used C57BL/6 PDE3B knockout (KO) mice to elucidate mechanisms involved in the formation of BAT in epididymal WAT (EWAT) depots. Examination of gene expression profiles in PDE3B KO EWAT revealed increased expression of several genes that block white and promote brown adipogenesis, such as C-terminal binding protein, bone morphogenetic protein 7, and PR domain containing 16, but a clear BAT-like phenotype was not completely induced. However, acute treatment of PDE3B KO mice with the β3-adrenergic agonist, CL316243, markedly increased the expression of cyclooxygenase-2, which catalyzes prostaglandin synthesis and is thought to be important in the formation of BAT in WAT and the elongation of very long-chain fatty acids 3, which is linked to BAT recruitment upon cold exposure, causing a clear shift toward fat burning and the induction of BAT in KO EWAT. These data provide insight into the mechanisms of BAT formation in mouse EWAT, suggesting that, in a C57BL/6 background, an increase in cAMP, caused by ablation of PDE3B and administration of CL316243, may promote differentiation of prostaglandin-responsive progenitor cells in the EWAT stromal vascular fraction into functional brown adipocytes.

Abstract
In grass carp, luteinizing hormone (LH) can act locally within the pituitary to regulate growth hormone expression. To test if LH receptor (LHR) expression in the carp pituitary can also serve as a target of modulation for LH actions, grass carp LHR was cloned and characterized by functional expression. In carp pituitary cells, LHR mRNA (lhr) level could be reduced by LH or human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) but up-regulated by dopamine treatment. Dopamine-induced lhr expression occurred mainly in carp somatotrophs via the cAMP/PKA pathway coupled to pituitary D1 receptors. This stimulatory effect could be blocked by LHR activation by hCG, presumably through phosphodiesterase III activation. These findings provide evidence that lhr expression in the carp pituitary is under the differential control of LH and dopamine via modification of cAMP-dependent signaling mechanisms, which may play a role in regulating somatotroph responsiveness to the paracrine action of LH in carp species.

Abstract
The burden of stroke is disproportionately high in the South Asian subcontinent with South Asian ethnicity conferring a greater risk of ischemic stroke than European ancestry regardless of country inhabited. While genes associated with stroke in European populations have been investigated, they remain largely unknown in South Asians. We conducted a comprehensive meta-analysis of known genetic polymorphisms associated with South Asian ischemic stroke, and compared effect size of the MTHFR C677T-stroke association with effect sizes predicted from homocysteine-stroke association. Electronic databases were searched up to August 2012 for published case control studies investigating genetic polymorphisms associated with ischemic stroke in South Asians. Pooled odds ratios (OR) for each gene-disease association were calculated using a random-effects model. We identified 26 studies (approximately 2529 stroke cases and 2881 controls) interrogating 33 independent genetic polymorphisms in 22 genes. Ten studies described MTHFR C677T (108 with TT genotype and 2018 with CC genotype) -homocysteine relationship and six studies (735 stroke cases and 713 controls) described homocysteine-ischemic stroke relationship. Risk association ORs were calculated for ACE I/D (OR 5.00; 95% CI, 1.17–21.37; p = 0.03), PDE4D SNP 83 (OR 2.20; 95% CI 1.21–3.99; p = 0.01), PDE4D SNP 32 (OR 1.57; 95% CI 1.01–2.45, p = 0.045) and IL10 G1082A (OR 1.44; 95% CI, 1.09–1.91, p = 0.01). Significant association was observed between elevated plasma homocysteine levels and MTHFR/677 TT genotypes in healthy South Asians (Mean difference (ΔX) 5.18 µmol/L; 95% CI 2.03–8.34: p = 0.001). Our results demonstrate that the genetic etiology of ischemic stroke in South Asians is broadly similar to the risk conferred in Europeans, although the dataset is considerably smaller and warrants the same clinical considerations for risk profiling.

Abstract
CONTEXT Acrodysostosis is a rare skeletal dysplasia that is associated with multiple resistance to G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling hormones in a subset of patients. Acrodysostosis is genetically heterogeneous because it results from heterozygous mutations in PRKAR1A or PDE4D, two key actors in the GPCR-cAMP-protein kinase A pathway. OBJECTIVE Our objective was to identify the phenotypic features that distinguish the two genotypes causing acrodysostosis. PATIENTS AND METHODS Sixteen unrelated patients with acrodysostosis underwent a candidate-gene approach and were investigated for phenotypic features. RESULTS All patients had heterozygous de novo mutations. Fourteen patients carried a PRKAR1A mutation (PRKAR1A patients), five each a novel PRKAR1A mutation (p.Q285R, p.G289E, p.A328V, p.R335L, or p.Q372X), nine the reported PRKAR1A p.R368X mutation; two patients harbored a mutation in PDE4D (PDE4D patients) (one novel mutation, p.A227S; one reported, p.E590A). All PRKAR1A, but none of the PDE4D mutated patients were resistant to PTH and TSH. Two PRKAR1A patients each with a novel mutation presented a specific pattern of brachydactyly. One PDE4D patient presented with acroskyphodysplasia. Additional phenotypic differences included mental retardation in PDE4D patients. In addition, we report the presence of pigmented skin lesions in PRKAR1A and PDE4D patients, a feature not yet described in the acrodysostosis entity. CONCLUSIONS All PRKAR1A and PDE4D patients present similar bone dysplasia characterizing acrodysostosis. Phenotypic differences, including the presence of resistance to GPCR-cAMP signaling hormones in PRKAR1A but not PDE4D patients, indicate phenotype-genotype correlations and highlight the specific contributions of PRKAR1A and PDE4D in cAMP signaling in different tissues.

Abstract
The aim of the paper was to study an association of rs966221 phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D) gene's polymorphism with risk of myocardial infarction (IM). One hundren sixty six persons were observed. The I (main) group included 97 patients with IM in anamnesis and the II (control) group consisted of 65 persons without IM. The study of polymorphism was performed by polymerase chain reaction with restriction of products. An increased frequency of TT genotype in the main group (20.6 %) comparing with controls (7.7 %; P = 0.026) was found. The differences were significant in men over 60 years old, having presence of arterial hypertension and signs of dyslipidemia.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis is an important pathophysiological basis of atherothrombotic stroke (ATS), and inflammation plays a significant role in atherosclerosis formation. In this study, single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in three key inflammation-related genes, 5-lipoxygenase activating protein (ALOX5AP), phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D), and interleukin-1α (IL-1α), were investigated to determine their association with ATS in Northern Han Chinese. Six-hundred and eighty-two ATS patients and 598 unrelated controls were recruited. Genotyping was performed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry primer extension. The genotype and allele frequencies of each SNP were statistically analyzed. Risk of ATS was found for the ALOX5AP SG13S114A/T AA genotype (P = 0.040) and A allele (P = 0.033), PDE4D SNP83C/T TT genotype (P = 0.010) and T allele (P = 0.008) and SNP219A/G GG genotype (P = 0.025) and G allele (P = 0.022), and the IL-1α-889C/T T allele (P = 0.035). The differences still remained significant after adjustment. The ALOX5AP HapA haplotype was not correlated with ATS (P = 0.834), but GCGA represented an at-risk haplotype (P = 0.008). Furthermore, the PDE4D AA haplotype at SNP219-220 might be an at-risk haplotype (P = 0.013), while GA might be a protective haplotype (P = 0.005). The ALOX5AP (SG13S114A/T), PDE4D (SNP83C/T, 219A/G), and IL-1α (-889C/T) SNPs were associated with an increased risk of ATS in Northern Han Chinese.

Abstract
High concentrations of TNF within obese adipose tissue increase basal lipolysis and antagonize insulin signaling. Adipocytes of the obese are also exposed to elevated levels of glucocorticoids (GCs), which antagonize TNF actions in many cell types. We tested the hypothesis that TNF decreases sensitivity to the antilipolytic effect of insulin and that GCs antagonize this effect in differentiated human adipocytes. Lipolysis and expression levels of lipolytic proteins were measured after treating adipocytes with TNF, dexamethasone (DEX), or DEX + TNF for up to 48 h. TNF not only increased basal lipolysis, it caused resistance to the antilipolytic effects of insulin in human adipocytes. DEX alone did not significantly affect lipolysis. Cotreatment with DEX blocked TNF induction of basal lipolysis and insulin resistance by antagonizing TNF stimulation of PKA-mediated phosphorylation of hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) at Ser⁵⁶³ and Ser⁶⁶⁰ and perilipin. TNF did not affect perilipin, HSL, or phosphodiesterase-3B mass but paradoxically suppressed adipose tissue triglyceride lipase expression, and this effect was blocked by DEX. The extent to which GCs can restrain the lipolytic actions of TNF may both diminish the potentially deleterious effects of excess lipolysis and contribute to fat accumulation in obesity.

Abstract
CONTEXT Acrodysostosis is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by short stature, peculiar facial appearance with nasal hypoplasia, and short metacarpotarsals and phalanges with cone-shaped epiphyses. Recently, mutations of PRKAR1A and PDE4D downstream of GNAS on the cAMP-mediated G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling cascade have been identified in acrodysostosis with and without hormone resistance, although functional studies have been performed only for p.R368X of PRKAR1A. OBJECTIVE Our objective was to report a novel PRKAR1A mutation and its functional consequence in a Japanese female patient with acrodysostosis and hormone resistance. PATIENT This patient had acrodysostosis-compatible clinical features such as short stature and brachydactyly and mildly elevated serum PTH and TSH values. RESULTS Although no abnormality was detected in GNAS and PDE4D, a novel de novo heterozygous missense mutation (p.T239A) was identified at the cAMP-binding domain A of PRKAR1A. Western blot analysis using primary antibodies for the phosphorylated cAMP-responsive element (CRE)-binding protein showed markedly reduced CRE-binding protein phosphorylation in the forskolin-stimulated lymphoblastoid cell lines of this patient. CRE-luciferase reporter assays indicated significantly impaired response of protein kinase A to cAMP in the HEK293 cells expressing the mutant p.T239A protein. CONCLUSIONS The results indicate that acrodysostosis with hormone resistance is caused by a heterozygous mutation at the cAMP-binding domain A of PRKAR1A because of impaired cAMP-mediated GPCR signaling. Because GNAS, PRKAR1A, and PDE4D are involved in the GPCR signal transduction cascade and have some different characters, this would explain the phenotypic similarity and difference in patients with GNAS, PRKAR1A, and PDE4D mutations.

Abstract
Allele and genotype frequencies of 10 single nucleotide polymorphisms in F12, PON1, PON2, NOS2, PDE4D, HIF1a,GPIba, CYP11B2 genes were studied in a group of Russian patients with ischemic stroke (IS) from central regions of the Russian Federation and healthy donors matched for sex, age and ethnicity. The genotyping procedure included the amplification of selected DNA sequences with the following hybridization of fluorescently-labeled regions with allele-specific DNA-probes immobilized on a biochip. An analysis of allele and genotype frequencies for each gene in IS patients and controls did not reveal any significant differences. The pair-wise comparison of genes demonstrated that the frequency of the combination PON1A/-x PON2 GG was higher in the group of patients (p=0.044, OR=3.4 95% CI 1.06 − 10.4) compared to the controls and, thus, was associated with the higher risk for stroke.

Abstract
Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs) encompass a large group of enzymes that regulate intracellular levels of two-second messengers, cAMP and cGMP, by controlling the rates of their degradation. More than 60 isoforms, subdivided into 11 gene families (PDE1-11), exist in mammals with at least six families (PDE1-5 and PDE8) identified in mammalian hearts. The two predominant families implicated in regulating contraction strength of the heart are PDE3 and PDE4. Studies using transgenic models in combination with family-specific PDE inhibitors have demonstrated that PDE3A, PDE4B, and PDE4D isoforms regulate cardiac contractility by modulating cAMP levels in various subcellular compartments. These studies have further uncovered contributions of PDE4B and PDE4D in preventing ventricular arrhythmias.

Abstract
PC12 cells exhibit precise temporal control of growth factor signaling in which stimulation with epidermal growth factor (EGF) leads to transient extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activity and cell proliferation, whereas nerve growth factor (NGF) stimulation leads to sustained ERK activity and differentiation. While cyclic AMP (cAMP)-mediated signaling has been shown to be important in conferring the sustained ERK activity achieved by NGF, little is known about the regulation of cAMP and cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) in these cells. Using fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)-based biosensors localized to discrete subcellular locations, we showed that both NGF and EGF potently activate PKA at the plasma membrane, although they generate temporally distinct activity patterns. We further show that both stimuli fail to induce cytosolic PKA activity and identify phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE3) as a critical regulator in maintaining this spatial compartmentalization. Importantly, inhibition of PDE3, and thus perturbation of the spatiotemporal regulation of PKA activity, dramatically increases the duration of EGF-stimulated nuclear ERK activity in a PKA-dependent manner. Together, these findings identify EGF and NGF as potent activators of PKA activity specifically at the plasma membrane and reveal a novel regulatory mechanism contributing to the growth factor signaling specificity achieved by NGF and EGF in PC12 cells.

Abstract
The risk of the ischemic stroke is mediated by both environmental and genetic factors. Recent studies of DeCode group identified the risk of polymorphisms for ischemic stroke in the phosphodiesterase 4D gene (PDE4D). The goal of this study was to explore the role of two variants of the gene encoding PDE4D [SNP41 (rs152312) and SNP87 (rs2910829)] in the Moldavian patients with ischemic stroke and in control. No significant association with ischemic stroke was observed with SNP41 and 87.

Abstract
Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) limit vasodilation in response to a variety of signaling cascades by metabolizing the cyclic nucleotides cAMP and cGMP. The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that NO regulates expression of PDE3A, a cGMP-inhibited PDE. Incubation of rat pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (rPaSMCs) with the NO-donor compound S-nitroso-glutathione (GSNO) increased PDE3A gene expression in a dose- and time-dependent manner. NO-donors increased PDE3A protein levels. Total and milrinone inhibitable cAMP PDE activity were increased 2.8 ± 0.1- and 2.0 ± 0.1-fold respectively in extracts of rPaSMCs exposed to GSNO. The effects of GSNO on PDE3A gene expression were mimicked by the soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) activators YC-1 and BAY 41-2272 and blocked by the sGC inhibitor ODQ. Incubation of rPaSMC with interleukin-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α induced PDE3A gene expression, an effect which was inhibited by L-NIL, an antagonist of NO synthase 2, or ODQ. Actinomycin D, an inhibitor of RNA polymerase, blocked the GSNO-induced increase of PDE3A mRNA levels, whereas cycloheximide, an inhibitor of protein translation, did not. These observations suggest that NO modulates PDE3A gene expression via mechanisms dependent upon cGMP synthesis and gene transcription. Prolonged exposure to NO may alter the sensitivity of vascular smooth muscle to cGMP- or cAMP-dependent vasodilators, as well as PDE isoform-selective inhibitors.

Abstract
Mechanisms of cAMP/PKA-induced meiotic arrest in oocytes are not completely identified. In cultured, G2/M-arrested PDE3A(-/-) murine oocytes, elevated PKA activity was associated with inactivation of Cdc2 and Plk1, and inhibition of phosphorylation of histone H3 (S10) and of dephosphorylation of Cdc25B (S323) and Cdc2 (Thr14/Tyr15). In cultured WT oocytes, PKA activity was transiently reduced and then increased to that observed in PDE3A(-/-) oocytes; Cdc2 and Plk1 were activated, phosphorylation of histone H3 (S10) and dephosphorylation of Cdc25B (S323) and Cdc2 (Thr14/Tyr15) were observed. In WT oocytes, PKAc were rapidly translocated into nucleus, and then to the spindle apparatus, but in PDE3A(-/-) oocytes, PKAc remained in the cytosol. Plk1 was reactivated by incubation of PDE3A(-/-) oocytes with PKA inhibitor, Rp-cAMPS. PDE3A was co-localized with Plk1 in WT oocytes, and co-immunoprecipitated with Plk1 in WT ovary and Hela cells. PKAc phosphorylated rPlk1 and Hela cell Plk1 and inhibited Plk1 activity in vitro. Our results suggest that PKA-induced inhibition of Plk1 may be critical in oocyte meiotic arrest and female infertility in PDE3A(-/-) mice.

Abstract
Neuroticism is a moderately heritable personality trait considered to be a risk factor for developing major depression, anxiety disorders and dementia. We performed a genome-wide association study in 2,235 participants drawn from a population-based study of neuroticism, making this the largest association study for neuroticism to date. Neuroticism was measured by the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire. After Quality Control, we analysed 430,000 autosomal SNPs together with an additional 1.2 million SNPs imputed with high quality from the Hap Map CEU samples. We found a very small effect of population stratification, corrected using one principal component, and some cryptic kinship that required no correction. NKAIN2 showed suggestive evidence of association with neuroticism as a main effect (p<10−6) and GPC6 showed suggestive evidence for interaction with age (p≈10−7). We found support for one previously-reported association (PDE4D), but failed to replicate other recent reports. These results suggest common SNP variation does not strongly influence neuroticism. Our study was powered to detect almost all SNPs explaining at least 2% of heritability, and so our results effectively exclude the existence of loci having a major effect on neuroticism.

Abstract
Two PDE4D gene polymorphisms [SNP41 (rs152312 and SNP87 (rs 2910829)] were studied in patients with acute stroke (n = 577) and in control sample (n = 270). Significant differences in the genotype and allele frequency distribution were found between these samples for polymorphism SNP41. We showed that the AA and AG genotypes of SNP41 polymorphism were associated with higher risk of acute stroke development in the Moscow population (OR = 1.6). No association of SNP87 polymorphism with the disease was observed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D) and interleukin-1 (IL-1) genes are associated with increased risk for the development of ischemic stroke (IS) in whites. However, little is known about whether this association could also occur in Han Chinese. METHOD A total of 371 patients with IS and unrelated healthy controls were recruited and the SNPs of the PDE4D (83T/C), (87T/C), IL-1 (-889C/T) and IL-1 (-511C/T) were characterized, respectively, by polymerase chain reactions-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). The genotype and allele frequencies of these SNPs in this population were statistically analyzed. RESULTS The genotype and allele frequencies of the PDE4D (87T/C) and IL-1 (-511C/T) were similar between IS patients and controls. In contrast, the frequencies of CC genotype and C allele of the PDE4D (83T/C) and the T allele frequency of IL-1 (-889C/T) in IS patients were significantly higher than that in healthy controls (p=0.001, p=0.003 and p=0.02, respectively), independent of the conventional risk factors. The values of odds ratio (OR) reached at OR=1.603; 95%CI=1.032-2.489; p=0.036 for the CC genotype of the PDE4D (83T/C) and OR=1.913; 95%CI=1.621-2.375; p=0.034 for the TT genotype of the IL-1 (-889C/T), respectively. CONCLUSIONS the SNPs of the PDE4D (83T/C) and IL-1 (-889C/T) were associated with increased risk for the development of IS in Northern Han Chinese.

Abstract
Cyclic adenosine 3'5'-monophosphate (cAMP) and cyclic guanosine 3'5'-monophosphate (cGMP) are critical intracellular messengers involved in transduction of signals generated by a wide variety of extracellular stimuli, including growth factors, cytokines, peptide hormones, light and neurotransmitters. These messengers modulate many fundamental biological processes, including myocardial contractility, platelet aggregation, vascular smooth muscle relaxation, proliferation and apoptosis, etc. Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs) catalyze the hydrolysis of cAMP and cGMP, and are important in regulating intracellular concentrations and biological actions of these signal-transducing molecules. These enzymes contain at least 11 highly regulated and structurally related gene families (PDE1-11). In this review, we will discuss some general information of PDEs and then focus on PDE3 gene family, including the molecular biology, structure, function and potential as therapeutic targets. Furthermore, we show the possibilities of PDE3 as therapeutic targets in malignant tumor cells and salivary gland.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Increases in intracellular cyclic AMP (cAMP) augment the release/secretion of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). As cAMP is hydrolysed by cAMP phosphodiesterases (PDEs), we determined the role of PDEs and particularly PDE4 in regulating GLP-1 release. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH GLP-1 release, PDE expression and activity were investigated using rats and GLUTag cells, a GLP-1-releasing cell line. The effects of rolipram, a selective PDE4 inhibitor both in vivo and in vitro and stably overexpressed catalytically inactive PDE4D5 (D556A-PDE4D5) mutant in vitro on GLP-1 release were investigated. KEY RESULTS Rolipram (1.5 mg x kg(-1) i.v.) increased plasma GLP-1 concentrations approximately twofold above controls in anaesthetized rats and enhanced glucose-induced GLP-1 release in GLUTag cells (EC(50) approximately 1.2 nmol x L(-1)). PDE4D mRNA transcript and protein were detected in GLUTag cells using RT-PCR with gene-specific primers and Western blotting with a specific PDE4D antibody respectively. Moreover, significant PDE activity was inhibited by rolipram in GLUTag cells. A GLUTag cell clone (C1) stably overexpressing the D556A-PDE4D5 mutant, exhibited elevated intracellular cAMP levels and increased basal and glucose-induced GLP-1 release compared with vector-transfected control cells. A role for intracellular cAMP/PKA in enhancing GLP-1 release in response to overexpression of D556A-PDE4D5 mutant was demonstrated by the finding that the PKA inhibitor H89 reduced both basal and glucose-induced GLP-1 release by 37% and 39%, respectively, from C1 GLUTag cells. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS PDE4D may play an important role in regulating intracellular cAMP linked to the regulation of GLP-1 release.

Abstract
Recently published studies from different populations provide apparently conflicting evidence on the association between the phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D) gene and ischemic stroke. The relationship between a representative PDE4D genotype and ischemic stroke was explored in a case-control study of 205 consecutive Korean patients with noncardiogenic ischemic stroke and 103 healthy controls who were neurologically and radiologically proven to be stroke-free. We selected and genotyped a PDE4D single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP 41, rs152312) as a candidate marker for susceptibility to ischemic stroke because SNP 41 has shown the most significant association with stroke in both a meta-analysis and the original Icelandic study of the PDE4D gene. No significant difference was observed between the cases and controls in the distribution of the PDE4D SNP 41 genotypes. The results from the adjusted conditional logistic regression analysis (adjusted for age, hypertension, diabetes and smoking status) showed no significant association between PDE4D SNP 41 genotypes and an increased risk of noncardiogenic ischemic stroke. The PDE4D gene is not a major risk factor for noncardiogenic ischemic stroke in a Korean population, which supports the recent evidence suggesting that the causative genetic variants of ischemic stroke may differ across populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic and biological evidence supports a role for DISC1 across a spectrum of major mental illnesses, including schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. There is evidence for genetic interplay between variants in DISC1 and in biologically interacting loci in psychiatric illness. DISC1 also associates with normal variance in behavioral and brain imaging phenotypes. METHODOLOGY Here, we analyze public domain datasets and demonstrate correlations between variants in the DISC1 pathway genes and levels of gene expression. Genetic variants of DISC1, NDE1, PDE4B and PDE4D regulate the expression of cytoskeletal, synaptogenic, neurodevelopmental and sensory perception proteins. Interestingly, these regulated genes include existing targets for drug development in depression and psychosis. CONCLUSIONS Our systematic analysis provides further evidence for the relevance of the DISC1 pathway to major mental illness, identifies additional potential targets for therapeutic intervention and establishes a general strategy to mine public datasets for insights into disease pathways.

Abstract
Ischaemic stroke is a heterogeneous multifactorial disorder. Epidemiological data provide substantial evidence for a genetic component to the disease, but the extent of predisposition is unknown. Large progress has been made in single-gene disorders associated with ischaemic stroke. The identification of NOTCH3 mutations in patients with cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leucoencephalopathy (CADASIL) has led to new insights on lacunar stroke and small-vessel disease. Studies of sickle-cell disease have drawn attention to the importance of modifier genes and of gene-gene interactions in determining stroke risk. They have further highlighted a potential role of genetics in predicting stroke risk. Little is known about the genes associated with complex multifactorial stroke. There are probably many alleles with small effect sizes. Genetic-association studies on a wide range of candidate pathways, such as the haemostatic and inflammatory system, homocysteine metabolism, and the renin-angiotensin aldosterone system, suggest a weak but significant effect for several at-risk alleles. Genome-wide linkage studies in extended pedigrees from Iceland led to the identification of PDE4D and ALOX5AP. Specific haplotypes in these genes have been shown to confer risk for ischaemic stroke in the Icelandic population, but their role in other populations is unclear. Advances in high-throughput genotyping and biostatistics have enabled new study designs, including genome-wide association studies. Their application to ischaemic stroke requires the collaborative efforts of multiple centres. This approach will contribute to the identification of additional genes, novel pathways, and eventually novel therapeutic approaches to ischaemic stroke.

Abstract
Although it is established that cAMP accumulation plays a pivotal role in preventing meiotic resumption in mammalian oocytes, the mechanisms controlling cAMP levels in the female gamete have remained elusive. Both production of cAMP via GPCRs/Gs/adenylyl cyclases endogenous to the oocyte as well as diffusion from the somatic compartment through gap junctions have been implicated in maintaining cAMP at levels that preclude maturation. Here we have used a genetic approach to investigate the different biochemical pathways contributing to cAMP accumulation and maturation in mouse oocytes. Because cAMP hydrolysis is greatly decreased and cAMP accumulates above a threshold, oocytes deficient in PDE3A do not resume meiosis in vitro or in vivo, resulting in complete female infertility. In vitro, inactivation of Gs or downregulation of the GPCR GPR3 causes meiotic resumption in the Pde3a null oocytes. Crossing of Pde3a(-/-) mice with Gpr3(-/-) mice causes partial recovery of female fertility. Unlike the complete meiotic block of the Pde3a null mice, oocyte maturation is restored in the double knockout, although it occurs prematurely as described for the Gpr3(-/-) mouse. The increase in cAMP that follows PDE3A ablation is not detected in double mutant oocytes, confirming that GPR3 functions upstream of PDE3A in the regulation of oocyte cAMP. Metabolic coupling between oocytes and granulosa cells was not affected in follicles from the single or double mutant mice, suggesting that diffusion of cAMP is not prevented. Finally, simultaneous ablation of GPR12, an additional receptor expressed in the oocyte, does not modify the Gpr3(-/-) phenotype. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that Gpr3 is epistatic to Pde3a and that fertility as well as meiotic arrest in the PDE3A-deficient oocyte is dependent on the activity of GPR3. These findings also suggest that cAMP diffusion through gap junctions or the activity of additional receptors is not sufficient by itself to maintain the meiotic arrest in the mouse oocyte.

Abstract
cAMP activates multiple signal pathways, crucial for the pancreatic beta-cells function and survival and is a major potentiator of insulin release. A family of phosphodiesterases (PDEs) terminate the cAMP signals. We examined the expression of PDEs in rat beta-cells and their role in the regulation of insulin response. Using RT-PCR and Western blot analyses, we identified PDE3A, PDE3B, PDE4B, PDE4D, and PDE8B in rat islets and in INS-1E cells and several possible splice variants of these PDEs. Specific depletion of PDE3A with small interfering (si) RNA (siPDE3A) led to a small (67%) increase in the insulin response to glucose in INS-1E cells but not rat islets. siPDE3A had no effect on the glucagon-like peptide-1 (10 nmol/liter) potentiated insulin response in rat islets. Depletion in PDE8B levels in rat islets using similar technology (siPDE8B) increased insulin response to glucose by 70%, the potentiation being of similar magnitude during the first and second phase insulin release. The siPDE8B-potentiated insulin response was further increased by 23% when glucagon-like peptide-1 was included during the glucose stimulus. In conclusion, PDE8B is expressed in a small number of tissues unrelated to glucose or fat metabolism. We propose that PDE8B, an 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine-insensitive cAMP-specific phosphodiesterase, could prove a novel target for enhanced insulin response, affecting a specific pool of cAMP involved in the control of insulin granule trafficking and exocytosis. Finally, we discuss evidence for functional compartmentation of cAMP in pancreatic beta-cells.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether mRNA levels of Pde4d and Alox5ap were associated with hypertensive stroke and hypertension in stroke-prone renovascular hypertensive rats (RHRSP) which could simulate human being's hypertensive cerebral stroke. METHODS Five groups were established: normotensive group, gradient hypertensive groups I, II and III(with contractive pressure of 140-159 mmHg, 160-179 mmHg and 180-199 mmHg respectively) and spontaneous stroke group. RNA from leukocytes in peripheral blood of each rat underwent real time PCR after reversed. RESULTS The mRNA levels of Pde4d and Alox5ap of spontaneous stroke group were statistically higher than that of the other groups. Expression of Pde4d of hypertensive group I was a bit higher than that of normotensive group and hypertensive groups II and III; as for Alox5ap, there was no statistical difference between normotensive group and all gradient hypertensive groups. CONCLUSION Animal experiments come to conclusions that over-expression of Pde4d and Alox5ap are associated with hypertensive stroke but not with hypertension. Therefore, the two genes confer the risk of hypertensive stroke independent of traditional risk factors. It is speculated that over-expression of Pde4d and Alox5ap can motivate onset of hypertensive cerebral stroke by participating in inflammation of arterial walls.

Abstract
By activating two distinct classes of effector enzymes, namely Protein Kinases A [PKA] or Exchange Proteins Activated by cAMP [EPAC], the ubiquitous second messenger cAMP selectively coordinates numerous events simultaneously in virtually all cells. Studies focused on dissecting the manner by which cAMP simultaneously regulates multiple cellular events have shown that cAMP activates its effectors non-uniformly in cells and that this localized cAMP-mediated signalling is made possible, at least in part, by anchoring of cAMP effectors to selected subcellular structures. In the work described here, we report that HEK293T cells ["293T"] contain several PKA- and EPAC1-based signalling complexes. Interestingly, our data do not identify signalling complexes in which both PKA and EPAC are each present but rather are consistent with the idea that these two effectors operate in distinct complexes in these cells. Similarly, we report that while individual PKA- or EPAC-containing complexes can contain either phosphodiesterase 3B, [PDE3B] or phosphodiesterase 4D [PDE4D], they do not contain both these phosphodiesterases. Indeed, although PDE4D enzymes were identified in both PKA- and EPAC-based complexes, PDE3B was largely identified in EPAC-based complexes. Using a combination of approaches, we identified that integration of PDE3B into EPAC-based complexes occurred through its amino terminal fragment [PDE3B(AT)]. Consistent with the idea that integration of PDE3B within EPAC-based complexes was dynamic and regulated PDE3 inhibitor-mediated effects on cellular functions, expression of PDE3B(AT) competed with endogenous PDE3B for integration into EPAC-based complexes and antagonized PDE3 inhibitor-based cell adhesion. Our data support the concept that cells can contain several non-overlapping PKA- and EPAC-based signalling complexes and that these complexes may also represent sites within cells were the effects of family-selective PDE inhibitors could be integrated to affect cell functions, including adhesion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic variants in Phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D) and 5-lipoxygenase activating protein (ALOX5AP) have been shown to confer risk of Ischemic Cerebrovascular Disease (ICVD) in Iceland. We investigated whether these variants associate with ICVD in Sweden. METHODS Previously published PDE4D and ALOX5AP gene variants were genotyped for cases (685) and controls (751). In PDE4D this consisted of SNP41, SNP45 and microsatellite AC008818-1 and in ALOX5AP four SNPs that define the HapA haplotype. RESULTS The PDE4D SNPs, showed a non-significant risk in the ICVD group which increased for the Large Artery Atherosclerosis subtype (SNP45: RR=1.43, P=0.063, SNP41: RR=1.57, P=0.018). The SNP haplotype GA (SNP45, SNP41) showed an increased risk for LAA (RR=1.58, P=0.016) and the combined LAA and Cardioembolism (CE) (RR=1.34, P=0.031) subgroups. As the SNPs are in strong LD, this haplotype corresponds to the complement of the protective haplotype in the Icelandic study. No allele of the microsatellite marker, showed association to stroke or any subtype and nor did the Icelandic PDE4D at-risk haplotype (GA0). We did not confirm the association between ALOX5AP HapA haplotype and ICVD, but a non-significant risk was observed in the LAA subtype. CONCLUSION Our PDE4D findings although non-significant considering the number of markers and phenotypes tested, are consistent with the association observed in the original study, with a trend observed in the whole ICVD group, which was strengthened in the stroke subtype LAA and the combined group of LAA and CE stroke. This supports the notion that PDE4D contributes to the risk of developing stroke.
