Phosphodiesterase 4D inhibitors limit prostate cancer growth potential.
UNLABELLED Phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D) has recently been implicated as a proliferation-promoting factor in prostate cancer and is overexpressed in human prostate carcinoma. However, the effects of PDE4D inhibition using pharmacologic inhibitors have not been examined in prostate cancer. These studies examined the effects of selective PDE4D inhibitors, NVP-ABE171 and cilomilast, as anti-prostat...
متن کاملPhosphodiesterase 4D gene, ischemic stroke, and asymptomatic carotid atherosclerosis.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D) was identified recently as the first novel stroke gene to predispose to ischemic stroke independently of conventional risk factors. An association was only found with large vessel and cardioembolic stroke, suggesting a mechanism of accelerated atherosclerosis. We sought to replicate this association in ischemic stroke as a whole, and individua...
متن کاملAcid to remember
Antibodies against a vaccine vector render T cells more susceptible to HIV-1 infection, say Perreau et al. on page 2717. Their results may help explain the failure of a recent HIV vaccine trial. The HIV-1 vaccine used in Merck's STEP trial relied on a weakened form of a common cold virus, Adenovirus 5 (Ad5), to carry bits of HIV into the body. One worry about the Ad5 vector was that widespread ...
متن کاملA Cluster to Remember
Based on a massive transcription factor location analysis within a single cell type, in this issue Yan et al. find that the great majority of occupancies occur within dense clusters of up to 100 factors that almost invariably contain cohesins. Retention of cohesins at cluster sites during mitosis raises the possibility that they contribute to transcriptional memory during the cell cycle.
متن کاملMolecules to Remember
"Working memory" is used for the transient storage of information in the brain. In this issue of Cell, Wang et al. (2007) now reveal how a series of molecular events involving alpha2A-adrenoceptors and a class of ion channels gated by cAMP tune the responses of neural circuits that function in working memory in mammals.
