PDE2, a component of the NO/cGMP signalling in the hippocampus
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background NO/cGMP-mediated signal transduction is involved in synaptic plasticity in various brain regions. NO effects are transduced by the NO receptor guanylyl cyclase (NO-GC) that exists in two isoforms, NO-GC1 and NO-GC2, with indistinguishable regulatory properties. Mice deficient in either NO-GC1 or NO-GC2 revealed that both NO-GC isoforms are required for LTP indicating the existence of two separated NO/cGMP pathways. Recently, we demonstrated a presynaptic role of NO/cGMP in facilitation of glutamate release and indentified eNOS and NO-GC1 as the participating enzymes. Yet, the involved cGMP-hydrolysing phosphodiesterases (PDE) remained unknown.

NO-donors induce cross talk between cGMP and cAMP in signalling to human atrial L-type Ca2+ current
Results Application of SNAP (100μM) increased basal ICa,L from 5.93±0.23 pA/pF to 9.10±0.45pA/pF (p<0.001, n/N=117/ 62). The effect was abolished by inhibition of soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) with ODQ (30μM), suggesting involvement of cGMP. Stimulator of sGC (BAY 41-2272, 10nM–10μM) also increased ICa,L and this effect was potentiated in the presence of SNAP. Direct activation of protein kin...
متن کاملThe effects of phosphodiesterase inhibition on cyclic GMP and cyclic AMP accumulation in the hippocampus of the rat.
The effects of selective and non-selective 3',5'-cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors on cGMP and cAMP accumulation were studied in rat hippocampal slices incubated in vitro. The following PDE inhibitors were used: vinpocetine and calmidazolium (PDE1 selective), erythro-9-(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine (EHNA, PDE2 selective), SK&F 95654 (PDE3 selective), rolipram (PDE4 selective), S...
متن کاملMathematical Modelling of Nitric Oxide/Cyclic GMP/Cyclic AMP Signalling in Platelets
Platelet activation contributes to normal haemostasis but also to pathologic conditions like stroke and cardiac infarction. Signalling by cGMP and cAMP inhibit platelet activation and are therefore attractive targets for thrombosis prevention. However, extensive cross-talk between the cGMP and cAMP signalling pathways in multiple tissues complicates the selective targeting of their activities. ...
متن کاملThe NO/cGMP pathway inhibits transient cAMP signals through the activation of PDE2 in striatal neurons
The NO-cGMP signaling plays an important role in the regulation of striatal function although the mechanisms of action of cGMP specifically in medium spiny neurons (MSNs) remain unclear. Using genetically encoded fluorescent biosensors, including a novel Epac-based sensor (EPAC-S(H150)) with increased sensitivity for cAMP, we analyze the cGMP response to NO and whether it affected cAMP/PKA sign...
متن کاملHydrolysis of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor-stimulated cAMP and cGMP by PDE4 and PDE2 phosphodiesterases in primary neuronal cultures of rat cerebral cortex and hippocampus.
Stimulation of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors on neurons activates both cAMP and cGMP signaling pathways. Experiments were carried out to determine which phosphodiesterase (PDE) families are involved in the hydrolysis of the cyclic nucleotides formed via this mechanism, using primary neuronal cultures prepared from rat cerebral cortex and hippocampus. The nonselective PDE inhibitor 3-iso...
