Sei-hai-to (TJ-90, Qing Fei Tang), a Chinese traditional medicine, increases ciliary beat frequency (CBF) and ciliary bend angle (CBA) mediated via cAMP (3',5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate) accumulation modulated by Ca2+-activated phosphodiesterase 1 (PDE1A). A high concentration of TJ-90 (≥40 μg/mL) induced

Large-conductance Ca(2+)-activated K(+) (BK) channels are critical regulators of detrusor smooth muscle (DSM) function. We aimed to investigate phosphodiesterase type 1 (PDE1) interactions with BK channels in human DSM to determine the mechanism by which PDE1 regulates human urinary bladder
H S Ahn et al.
Biochemical pharmacology, 38(19), 3331-3339 (1989-10-01)
In this study three forms of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE) isolated from rabbit aorta were pharmacologically characterized, and the consequence of selective inhibition of calmodulin-stimulated PDE (CaM-PDE) and cGMP specific PDE (cG-PDE) was evaluated using PDE inhibitors. The cG-PDE (F1)
