Disease

PDE4D_HUMAN Note=Genetic variations in PDE4D might be associated with susceptibility to stroke. PubMed:17006457 states that association with stroke has to be considered with caution. Defects in PDE4D are the cause of acrodysostosis type 2, with or without hormone resistance (ACRDYS2) [MIM:614613. ACRDYS2 is a pleiotropic disorder characterized by skeletal, endocrine, and neurological abnormalities. Skeletal features include brachycephaly, midface hypoplasia with a small upturned nose, brachydactyly, and lumbar spinal stenosis. Endocrine abnormalities include hypothyroidism and hypogonadism in males and irregular menses in females. Developmental disability is a common finding but is variable in severity and can be associated with significant behavioral problems.[1]

Function

PDE4D_HUMAN Hydrolyzes the second messenger cAMP, which is a key regulator of many important physiological processes.[2] [3]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Psoriasis is a common, chronic inflammatory disease characterized by abnormal skin plaques, and the effectiveness of phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitor to lessen the symptoms of psoriasis has been proved. Aiming to find a novel PDE4 inhibitor acting as an effective, safe, and convenient therapeutic agent, we constructed a library consisting of berberine analogues, and compound 2 with a tetrahydroisoquinoline scaffold was identified as a novel and potent hit. The structure-aided and cell-based structure-activity relationship studies on a series of tetrahydro-isoquinolines lead to efficient discovery of a qualified lead compound (16) with the high potency and selectivity, well-characterized binding mechanism, high cell permeability, good safety and pharmacokinetic profile, and impressive in vivo efficacy on antipsoriasis, in particular with a topical application. Thus, our study presents a prime example for efficient discovery of novel, potent lead compounds derived from natural products using a combination of medicinal chemistry, biochemical, biophysical, and pharmacological approaches.
