A-33 (A33) is a potent and selective catalytic site-targeting PDE4B inhibitor (IC50 = 15 nM/PDE4B vs. 1.7 μM/PDE4D) that effectively prevents PDE4B-medicated cellular cAMP hydrolysis (150%/320% increased cAMP level with 100 nM/1 μM A-33 pre-treament in murine hippocampal HT-22 cells following 10 nM isoproterenol stimulation) in vitro and inhibits LPS-induced TNF-α production in mice in vivo (ID50 = 14 mg/kg p.o.). When administered via intraperitoneal injection, A-33 improves cognitive function in a rat model of traumatic brain injury (0.3 mg/kg i.p.) and exhibits antidepressant property in mice (0.3-1 mg/kg i.p.) in vivo.
Orally acive, potent and selective catalytic site-targeting PDE4B inhibitor with anti-inflammatory, antidepressant, and cognition-improving efficacy in vivo.

Learning and memory impairments are common in traumatic brain injury (TBI) survivors. However, there are no effective treatments to improve TBI-induced learning and memory impairments. TBI results in decreased cAMP signaling and reduced cAMP-response-element binding protein (CREB) activation, a critical
In this study we report a series of triazine derivatives that are potent inhibitors of PDE4B. We also provide a series of structure activity relationships that demonstrate the triazine core can be used to generate subtype selective inhibitors of PDE4B
In this study the first PDE4B selective inhibitor is described. Optimization of lead 2-arylpyrimidine derivatives afforded a series of potent PDE4B inhibitors with >100-fold selectivity over the PDE4D isozyme. With a good pharmacokinetic profile, a selected compound exhibited potent anti-inflammatory
Phosphodiesterase-4B (PDE4B) regulates the pro-inflammatory Toll Receptor -Tumor Necrosis Factor α (TNFα) pathway in monocytes, macrophages and microglial cells. As such, it is an important, although under-exploited molecular target for anti-inflammatory drugs. This is due in part to the difficulty
Inhibition of cyclic AMP (cAMP)-specific phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) has been proposed as a potential treatment for a series of neuropsychological conditions such as depression, anxiety and memory loss. However, the specific involvement of each of the PDE4 subtypes (PDE4A, 4B
