“…Mackay GA et al, where the role of cGMP in the functional modulation of mast cells and basophils was investigated, the potential of cGMP to caused potent inhibition of histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells.The bronchodilatory potential of PDE5 inhibitor has been demonstrated in anaesthetized ventilated guineapigs where there was an inhibition of the histamine induced bronchoconstriction. Elevation in the cGMP levels in anaesthetized guinea-pig trachea was also seen[24]. In a guinea pig model of airway hyperresponsiveness tadalafil reduced specific airway resistance after nebulization of histamine, these results agree with ours.…”

“…The ¢nding, for the ¢rst time, that correction of the CFTR mucin secretion defect can be achieved by a selective PDE5 inhibitor is likely to have major impact for CF therapy. Thus, in view of its e¤cacy as a weak bronchodilator [27], its speci¢city, in that it does not increase cyclic AMP and it being one of a class of PDE5 inhibitors which includes Viagra0, this would provide a relatively safe compound in the development of a selective pharmacological therapy for cystic ¢brosis targeted at the gene protein defect.…”

“…The mechanism of action of IBMX in correcting defective CFTR function was investigated using selective PDE3 (SB 95654) [26], PDE4 (rolipram, SB 95952) and PDE5 (SB96231) [27] inhibitors. Their structures are shown in Fig.…”

“…PDE3, PDE4 and mixed PDE3-4 inhibitors have been extensively studied for their effects on airway responsiveness and airway inflam-matory process [11−13], but few informations are available on the role of PDE5. PDE5 hydrolyses GMP, and inhibition of this isoenzyme induces a rise in cGMP content [14−16] which correlate with guinea-pig isolated trachea relaxation in vitro and the inhibition of histamineinduced bronchoconstriction in vivo, as suggested by an experiment using SK&F 96231, a selective PDE5 inhibitor [17,18]. However the functional role of PDE5 on airway tissues is still questionable as other PDE5 inhibitors, such as Zaprinast could not demonstrate potent bronchodilatory activities [17,19].…”
