Abstract:
Elevation of cAMP downregulates certain functions of inflammatory cells, including the release of TNF alpha and IL-1 beta by macrophages. Intracellular cAMP levels can be modulated pharmacologically by adding cell-permeable cAMP analogs, by stimulating adenylate cyclase or by inhibiting degradation of cAMP by cAMP-phosphodiesterases (cAMP-PDE). Multiple forms of cAMP-PDEs have been identified in various tissues and cells using both biochemical characterization and selective inhibitors. Therefore, we wanted to determine which of these different PDE isoforms was present in human monocytes and whether this isoform could regulate cytokine release from human monocytes by a mechanism similar to that seen with dbcAMP or PGE1. Our results demonstrate that selective inhibitors of type IV cAMP-PDE, such as rolipram and Ro20-1724, are clearly the most effective compounds at enhancing cAMP levels and inhibiting the release of TNF alpha and IL-1 beta in these cells. The type III cAMP-PDE-selective inhibitors C1930 and cilostamide and the nonselective PDE inhibitors IBMX and pentoxifylline were significantly less potent. In agreement with these data, cAMP-PDE activity in cytosolic extracts from human monocytes was also much more sensitive to inhibition by rolipram than by cilostamide. Additionally, rolipram dramatically reduced TNF alpha mRNA accumulation, which supports previous findings that cAMP regulates TNF alpha at the transcriptional level. Surprisingly, rolipram, rolipram, dbcAMP or PGE1 increased IL-1 beta was reduced, which indicates that cAMP can have both positive and negative effects on the regulation of IL-1 beta.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)Keywords:

Increases in the level of cAMP stimulate the secretion of GnRH from GT1 GnRH neuronal cells. We hypothesized that cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs), the enzymes that hydrolyze cAMP, may constitute a negative feedback signaling mechanism for GnRH regulation by decreasing the level of cAMP. GT1 cells were shown to express three PDEs by RT-PCR analysis: the cAMP-specific PDE4B and PDE4D and the calmodulin-dependent PDE1B. A splice variant of PDE4D, PDE4D3, which is activated when phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), was identified in GT1 cells by Western analysis. Consistent with PDEs negatively regulating GnRH secretion, treatment with the nonselective PDE inhibitor, IBMX, stimulated GnRH secretion 137% in 30-min static cultures. Furthermore, treatment with the PDE4-specific inhibitors Rolipram and RS-25344 increased GnRH secretion 48 and 125%, while treatment with the PDE1-specific inhibitor 8-MeoM-IBMX only caused a modest increase of 28%. In perifusion studies a rapid multi-fold stimulation of GnRH secretion was observed following treatment with IBMX, Rolipram or RS-25344. In conclusion, the level of PDE activity appears to be an important negative feedback signal for GnRH secretion. We hypothesize that activation of PDE4D3 by PKA may constitute a negative feedback signaling pathway which participates in the regulation of cAMP levels.

The role of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE) isoforms in the beta2-adrenergic stimulation of the L-type Ca2+ current (ICa,L) was investigated in frog ventricular myocytes using double patch-clamp and double-barrelled microperfusion techniques. Isoprenaline (ISO, 1 nM to 10 microM) was applied on one half of the cell, either alone or in the presence of PDE inhibitors, and the local and distant responses of ICa,L were used to determine the gradient of local vs. distant cAMP concentration (alpha). IBMX (100 microM), a non-selective PDE inhibitor, reduced alpha from 40 to 4.4 indicating a 9-fold reduction in intracellular cAMP compartmentation when all PDE activity was blocked. While PDE1 and PDE2 inhibition had no effect, PDE3 inhibition by milrinone (3 microM) or PDE4 inhibition by Ro 20-1724 (3 microM) reduced alpha by 6- and 4-fold, respectively. A simultaneous application of milrinone and Ro 20-1724 produced a similar effect to IBMX, showing that PDE3 and PDE4 were the major PDEs accounting for cAMP compartmentation. Okadaic acid (3 microM), a non-selective phosphatase inhibitor, or H89 (1 microM), an inhibitor of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), had no effect on the distant response of ICa,L to ISO indicating that PDE activation by PKA played a minor role in cAMP compartmentation. Our results demonstrate that PDE activity determines the degree of cAMP compartmentation in frog ventricular cells upon beta2-adrenergic stimulation. PDE3 and PDE4 subtypes play a major role in this process, and contribute equally to ensure a functional coupling of beta2-adrenergic receptors with nearby Ca2+ channels via local elevations of cAMP.

Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE) enzymes are felt to play a role in the regulation of inflammatory responses through their effects on cAMP. In this study, we investigated the effects of nonselective and isozyme selective PDE inhibitors on the proliferative responses of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) to ragweed (RW, a Th2 stimulus), tetanus toxoid (TT, a Th1 stimulus), and phytohemagglutinin in ragweed-allergic patients. The nonselective PDE inhibitor 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX) produced nearly identical concentration-dependent inhibition for PBMCs cultured with either Ag (RW and TT) or mitogen (phytohemagglutinin). Neither the type V inhibitor, zaprinast, nor the type III inhibitor, siguazodan, was effective at inhibiting antigen- or mitogen-driven proliferative responses of human PBMCs. The type IV inhibitor, rolipram, was unique in its ability to inhibit the RW-driven proliferative response and, to a lesser extent, the TT-driven proliferative response. However, rolipram was ineffective at inhibiting the mitogen-driven proliferative response. Only with a combination of type III and type IV inhibitors could the efficacy on the TT response be made to approximate that of the type IV inhibitor alone in the RW-driven system. Although the efficacies of IBMX and rolipram were identical in the RW-driven system, the IC50 value of the latter was 10-fold lower, similar to the difference noted in the TT-driven system between IBMX alone and the combination of rolipram with siguazodan. Dose-response curves generated by using the D- or L-isomers of rolipram were not appreciably different from each other or from the curve generated with racemic rolipram. The addition of supraphysiologic doses of human rIL-2 and rIL-4 was unable to counteract the inhibitory effect of IBMX or rolipram. These data support the hypothesis that modulation of proliferation of PBMCs by selective PDE inhibitors varies in sensitivity with the type of stimulus used, and that the type IV PDE exerts the predominant cAMP-associated regulatory effect on allergen-driven proliferation. Finally, the inhibitory effect induced by rolipram is independent of its stereochemistry and cannot be exclusively attributed to deficits in IL-2 or IL-4.

The aim of the present study was to determine whether inhibition of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE) modulates the stimulated generation of the cytokines, interleukin‐4 (IL‐4) and IL‐13, from human basophils. This was addressed by evaluating the effects of both nonselective and selective inhibitors of PDEs on the generation of cytokines from basophils. The nonselective PDE inhibitors, isobutyl‐methylxanthine (IBMX) and theophylline, attenuated the IgE‐mediated generation of IL‐4 and IL‐13 and, also, the release of histamine from basophils. The effects of the isoform‐selective inhibitors, 8‐methoxymethyl‐IBMX (PDE 1 inhibitor), siguazodan (PDE3 inhibitor), rolipram (PDE4 inhibitor), denbufylline (PDE4 inhibitor), Org 30029 (mixed PDE3 and 4 inhibitor) and zaprinast (PDE5 inhibitor), were studied. Of these selective compounds, only rolipram, denbufylline and Org 30029 inhibited the IgE‐dependent generation of IL‐4, IL‐13 and histamine from basophils to a statistically significant ( P <0.05) degree. The effects of isoform‐selective inhibitors on basophils activated by IL‐3 were evaluated. The IL‐3‐induced generation of IL‐4, IL‐13 and histamine was inhibited to a statistically significant ( P <0.05) extent, only by compounds that act as inhibitors of PDE4. These data suggest that inhibition of PDE4 can regulate the generation of cytokines from human basophils. British Journal of Pharmacology (2004) 142 , 1265–1272. doi: 10.1038/sj.bjp.0705892

Summary: The effect of a new cardiotonic agent Y-20487 [6-(3,6-dihydro-2-oxo-2H-1,3,4-thiadiazin-5-yl)-3,4- dihydro-2(1H)-quinolinone] on cyclic AMP levels of rat ventricular cardiomyocytes and the contractile force of papillary muscles was investigated in comparison with selective cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors, milrinone (PDE-III selective), rolipram and Ro 20-1724 (PDE-IV selective), and a nonselective inhibitor 3-isobutyl-I-methylxanthine (IBMX). Rolipram and Ro 20-1724 did not elicit cyclic AMP accumulation and positive inotropy, but they potentiated the isoproterenol (ISO)-induced cyclic AMP accumulation more effectively than IBMX. Rolipram was more effective than Ro 20-1724 in enhancing ISO-induced cyclic AMP accumulation but was less effective in enhancing the ISO-induced positive inotropic effect, indicating that these agents produce a differential action on cyclic AMP metabolism and inotropy. Milrinone and Y-20487 elicited cyclic AMP accumulation and positive inotropy by themselves. Whereas milrinone scarcely affected the ISO-induced effects, Y-20487 shifted the concentration-response curve for the positive inotropic effect of ISO to the left to the same extent that IBMX did. Y-20487, however, was much less effective than IBMX in enhancing the ISO-induced cyclic AMP accumulation. The present results indicate that in rat ventricular myocardium, PDE-IV may play a crucial role in breakdown of cyclic AMP generated by (3-adrenoceptor stimulation, whereas other types of PDE isoenzymes, including PDE-III, may be responsible for the cyclic AMP accumulation and direct positive inotropic effect induced by PDE inhibitors. Y-20487 may exert a characteristic action different from other agents, probably through inhibition of PDE-III and PDE-IV isoenzymes
