Phosphodiesterases (PDE, also designated cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase) are important for the downregulation of the intracellular level of the second messenger cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) by hydrolyzing cAMP to 5'AMP. Phosphodiesterase type 3 isoforms, PDE3A and 3B, are expressed primarily in cardiovascular tissue and adipose tissue, respectively. PDE3A, is found in myocardium and platelets and PDE3B is found in lymphocytes. The PDE7A1 (HCP1) isozyme and the PDE7A2 proteins, alternate splice products of PDE7A, are highly expressed in skeletal muscle. PDE7B is most highly expressed in pancreas. The PDE family contains proteins that serve tissue-specific roles in regulation of lipolysis, glycogenolysis, myocardial contractility, and smooth muscle relaxation.
