Pros and Cons of Pharmacological Manipulation of cGMP-PDEs in the Prevention and Treatment of Breast Cancer

Abstract: The cyclic nucleotides, cAMP and cGMP, are ubiquitous second messengers responsible for translating extracellular signals to intracellular biological responses in both normal and tumor cells. When these signals are aberrant or missing, cells may undergo neoplastic transformation or become resistant to chemotherapy. cGMP-hydrolyzing phosphodiesterases (PDEs) are attracting tremendous interest as drug targets for many diseases, including cancer, where they regulate cell growth, apoptosis and sensitization to rad… Show more

“…Intracellular cGMP-activated cation channels are proteins activated by the signaling molecule cGMP, which allow ions to enter cells ( Biel and Michalakis, 2009 ). Dysregulation of these channels has been linked to the development of various types of cancer, including breast, prostate, and ovarian cancer ( Di Iorio et al, 2021 ).…”

“…This suggests that the expression of PDE11A can regulate the development of glioblastoma in patients. Other PDEs (PDE5, PDE8, and PDE10) are also involved in cancer cell proliferation; various mutations have been described ( 96 98 ). Therefore, PDE11A and other PDEs fail to act as regulators of cAMP and cGMP, affecting the growth and development of cancer cells.…”

“…Di Iorio et al reviewed the possible role of cGMP-PDE in breast cancer and discussed the potential application of cGMP-PDE inhibitors. For this, the notable and controversial studies concerning an off-label use of these inhibitors in cancer therapy are summarized [ 10 ].…”
