Overview:
PDE2A is a member of the cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase family. PDE2A is a cGMP-specific phosphodiesterase and hydrolyzes cGMP to 5'-GMP. TNFα stimulation of cells leads to an increase in PDE2A expression in a p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)-dependent manner (1). TNFα-mediated up-regulation of PDE2A may destabilize endothelial barrier function in sepsis. In addition, selective PDE2A up-regulation sensitizesendothelial cells toward the permeability-increasing agent thrombin (2). Furthermore, PDE2A inhibition is effective in preventing thrombin-induced lung edema.
