1. Vias intracelulares da ação do Sildenafil no diabetes insipidus induzido pelo lítio / Sildenafil action in lithium-induced NDI: intracellular pathway
Patients taking lithium to treat bipolar disorder often present polyuria and urinary concentrating defect. In addition, lithium-treated animals present lower cyclic adenosine monophosphate production in response to vasopressin. Sildenafil (Sil), a phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) inhibitor, elevates intracellular cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) levels, leadi

2. Participação dos canais de potássio no efeito relaxante do ácido ent-7a-hidroxitraquiloban-18-oico em traqueia isolada de cobaia / Participation of potassium channels in the ent-7a-hidroxitrachyloban-18-oic acid relaxation effect on guinea pig trachea
From Xylopia langsdorfiana A. St-Hil. &Tul. stem bark was isolated the diterpene of trachylobane class, ent-7α-hydroxytrachyloban-18-oic acid (trachylobane-318) that in previous studies showed to be able to relax guinea-pig trachea pre-contracted by carbachol (CCh). Thus, we aimed to investigate the action mechanism underlying in this trachylobane-318 r

3. O óxido nítrico e os nucleotídeos cíclicos em oócitos bovinos maturados in vitro / Nitric oxide and cyclic nucleotides in bovine oocytes matured in vitro
O óxido nítrico (NO) é um mensageiro químico gerado pela atividade da enzima óxido nítrico sintase (NOS) a qual foi detectada em vários órgãos incluído o sistema reprodutor. O sistema NOS/NO parece desempenhar papel importante na maturação oocitária entre outras funções. No entanto, apesar das evidências, há poucos estudos sobre o papel dess

4. Participação Do Cálcio Citosólico Sobre A Ação Espasmolítica Do Ácido Ent-7a-Acetoxitraquiloban-18-Óico E De Seu Derivado Hidroxilado Em Íleo Isolado De Cobaia / Partipation of cytosolic calcium in spasmolytic action of ent-7a-acetoxytrachyloban-18-oic acid and its hidroxylated derivated on guinea-pig ileum
From the stem bark of Xylopia langsdorfiana A. St.-Hil. &Tul. (Annonaceae), popularly known as pimenteria da terra, was isolated the diterpene ent-7-α-acetoxytrachyloban-18-oic acid (trachylobane-360) from which it was made a structural modification in which the acetoxy group was substituted by hydroxy generating the ent-7a-hidroxitrachyloban-18-oic aci

5. AvaliaÃÃo dos efeitos do inibidor de fosfodiesterase 5 sobre a ovogÃnese de camundongos
Vardenafil citrate is a potent vasodilator, with use in the treatment of patients with erectile dysfunction. Its mechanism of action is based on selective inhibition of phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5), specific to guanosine 3â,5â-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP). The phosphodiesterases are enzymes capable of regulating the levels of cAMP (adenosine 3â,5â-cyclic mo

7. Envolvimento dos canais de potássio na ação espasmolítica do ácido 8(17), 12E, 14-labdatrieno-18-óico (labdano-302), isolado de Xylopia langsdorfiana A. St.-Hil. &Tul. em íleo isolado de cobaia / Involvement of potassium channels in the spasmolytic action of 8(17),12E, 14-labdatrien-18 oic acid (labdane-302), obtained from Xylopia langsdorfiana A. St.-Hil. &Tul. on guinea-pig ileum
8(17),12e,14-labdatrien-18 oic acid (labdane-302), is a diterpene isolated from the stem bark of Xylopia langsdorfiana A. St.-Hil. &Tul. In a preliminary study, Ribeiro (2003) demonstrated that labdane-302 inhibited the phasic contractions induced by carbachol (CCh) or histamine (IC50 = 1.7 0.5 and 0.9 0.2 x 10-5 M, respectively) on guinea-

8. Selective PDE4 inhibitors as potent anti-inflammatory drugs for the treatment of airway diseases
Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) are responsible for the breakdown of intracellular cyclic nucleotides, from which PDE4 are the major cyclic AMP metabolizing isoenzymes found in inflammatory and immune cells. This generated greatest interest on PDE4 as a potential target to treat lung inflammatory diseases. For example, cigarette smoke-induced neutrophilia in BAL w

9. THE ACRASIN ACTIVITY OF 3′,5′-CYCLIC NUCLEOTIDES
3′,5′-Cyclic nucleotides are acrasins for the cellular slime mold, Dictyostelium discoideum; they have chemotactic activity on the myxamoebae at very low concentrations. However, not all cyclic nucleotides can evoke the adhesiveness necessary for aggregate formation. 2′,3′-Cyclic nucleotides and dibutyrylcyclic adenosine monophosphate are not acrasin

10. Cyclic nucleotides attenuate thrombin-evoked alterations in parameters of platelet Na/H antiport. The role of cytosolic Ca.
In this work, we explored the role of cyclic nucleotides in modulating parameters of the Na/H antiport in human platelets. Sodium nitroprusside and iloprost, as well as cyclic nucleotide analogues, were used to raise cellular levels of cAMP and cGMP. Cyclic nucleotides reversed the thrombin-evoked alkaline shift in cytosolic pH set point and the activity of

11. RADIOIMMUNOASSAY FOR THE MEASUREMENT OF ADENOSINE 3′,5′-CYCLIC PHOSPHATE*
A sensitive and specific radioimmunoassay for adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic phosphate (cyclic AMP) has been developed which allows measurement of the nucleotide in extracts of 5-10 mg of tissue. The radioimmunoassay is sufficiently specific for cyclic AMP to eliminate the need for prior chromatographic separation of the cyclic nucleotide from other tissue nucle

12. The Effects of the Immunologic Release of Histamine upon Human Lung Cyclic Nucleotide Levels and Prostaglandin Generation
The effect of the antigen-induced, immunoglobulin (Ig)E-dependent release of mediators from human lung tissue was analyzed for coincident changes in the tissue levels of cyclic nucleotides. Simultaneously with the appearance of mediators, lung cyclic guanosine 3′,5′-monophosphate (GMP) increased from 0.9±0.2 to 12.63±4.5 pmol/mg protein and cyclic AMP
