Target intelligence / Profile preview
Phosphodiesterase 2 (PDE2)
- Target
- PDE2
- Molecular classification
- Enzyme, Phosphodiesterase
01
Overview
Phosphodiesterase 2 (PDE2) is an enzyme that hydrolyzes both cAMP and cGMP, playing a crucial role in regulating intracellular cyclic nucleotide levels and signal transduction pathways. Its unique allosteric activation by cGMP makes it a distinct member of the phosphodiesterase family. It is expressed widely across tissues and is a target for drug development.
02
Mechanism of action
Selective inhibitors of PDE2 can increase intracellular cAMP and cGMP levels by preventing their degradation.
03
Biological functions
Signal transductionRegulation of cAMP levelsRegulation of cGMP levelsModulation of mitochondrial functionRegulation of apoptosis
04
Disease associations
Cardiovascular diseaseNeuropsychiatric disorders
05
Safety considerations
Potential for off-target effects due to structural similarities with other phosphodiesterases.
