Gene Name PDE5A
Uniprot ID PDE5A_HUMAN
KEGG Pathway hsa:8654
Protein Family Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase family
Protein Function
Plays a role in signal transduction by regulating the intracellular concentration of cyclic nucleotides. This phosphodiesterase catalyzes the specific hydrolysis of cGMP to 5'-GMP (PubMed:9714779, PubMed:15489334). Specifically regulates nitric-oxide-generated cGMP (PubMed:15489334).

      Key Mechanism Factor 2
Factor Name Guanylate cyclase soluble Structure Sequence
Protein Family Adenylyl cyclase class-4/guanylyl cyclase family
Protein Function
There are two types of guanylate cyclases: soluble forms and membrane-associated receptor forms. Activated by nitric oxide in the presence of magnesium or manganese ions.

      Mechanism Description
  • Additive hypotensive effects by the combination of Dipyridamole and Nesiritide 

Recommended Action
      Management Whether used alone or with other agents, nesiritide should be administered only in settings where blood pressure can be closely monitored. The dosage should be reduced or the drug discontinued in patients who develop hypotension.
