Differential distribution of PDE4D splice variant mRNAs in rat brain suggests association with specific pathways and presynaptical localization
9 Jul 2002
Abstract excerpt
cAMP plays an important role as a second-messenger molecule controlling multiple cellular processes. Its hydrolysis provides an important mechanism by which cAMP levels are regulated. This is performed by a large multigene family of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs). Members of the PDE4 enzyme family are selectively inhibited by rolipram. Five different mRNA splice forms for PDE4D have been isolated....
