Q

how do PDE4 work?

A

PDE4 Inhibition -> HIGH levels of CAMP -> anti inflammatory effects

Mechanism of Action
• cAMP (cyclic adenosine monophosphate) is synthesized from adenosine triphosphate (ATP) by adenylate cyclase
o key regulator in the extracellular ligand signals
o PKA (protein kinase A) pathway  expression of proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-alpha, IFN-gamma, IL-17) while production of anti-inflammatory mediators such as IL-10
• when PDE4 is inhibited, cAMP cannot be degraded; high levels of cAMP = downstream anti-inflammatory effects via the PKA pathway
