The effect of levamisole on phosphodiesterase activity. 1977

A Constantopoulos, and V Kafasi, and N Doulas, and D Liakakos, and N Matsaniotis

Phosphodiesterase activity of mouse liver homogenates was estimated in presence and absence of levamisole. The enzyme activity was 1394 and 1399 nmoles/mg protein/30 min respectively. Our data show that levamisole does not affect the phosphodiesterase activity.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007978 Levamisole An antihelminthic drug that has been tried experimentally in rheumatic disorders where it apparently restores the immune response by increasing macrophage chemotaxis and T-lymphocyte function. Paradoxically, this immune enhancement appears to be beneficial in rheumatoid arthritis where dermatitis, leukopenia, and thrombocytopenia, and nausea and vomiting have been reported as side effects. (From Smith and Reynard, Textbook of Pharmacology, 1991, p435-6) L-Tetramisole,Levotetramisole,Decaris,Dekaris,Levamisole Hydrochloride,Solaskil,Hydrochloride, Levamisole

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D015105 3',5'-Cyclic-AMP Phosphodiesterases Enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of CYCLIC AMP to form adenosine 5'-phosphate. The enzymes are widely distributed in animal tissue and control the level of intracellular cyclic AMP. Many specific enzymes classified under this heading demonstrate additional spcificity for 3',5'-cyclic IMP and CYCLIC GMP. 3',5'-Cyclic AMP 5'-Nucleotidohydrolase,3',5'-Cyclic-Nucleotide Phosphodiesterase,CAMP Phosphodiesterase,3',5' Cyclic AMP Phosphodiesterase,3',5'-Cyclic AMP Phosphodiesterase,3',5'-Cyclic Nucleotide Phosphodiesterase,3',5'-Cyclic-AMP Phosphodiesterase,3',5'-Nucleotide Phosphodiesterase,3,5-Cyclic AMP 5-Nucleotidohydrolase,3,5-Cyclic AMP Phosphodiesterase,3',5' Cyclic AMP 5' Nucleotidohydrolase,3',5' Cyclic AMP Phosphodiesterases,3',5' Cyclic Nucleotide Phosphodiesterase,3',5' Nucleotide Phosphodiesterase,3,5 Cyclic AMP 5 Nucleotidohydrolase,3,5 Cyclic AMP Phosphodiesterase,5'-Nucleotidohydrolase, 3',5'-Cyclic AMP,5-Nucleotidohydrolase, 3,5-Cyclic AMP,AMP 5'-Nucleotidohydrolase, 3',5'-Cyclic,AMP 5-Nucleotidohydrolase, 3,5-Cyclic,AMP Phosphodiesterase, 3',5'-Cyclic,AMP Phosphodiesterase, 3,5-Cyclic,Nucleotide Phosphodiesterase, 3',5'-Cyclic,Phosphodiesterase, 3',5'-Cyclic AMP,Phosphodiesterase, 3',5'-Cyclic Nucleotide,Phosphodiesterase, 3',5'-Cyclic-AMP,Phosphodiesterase, 3',5'-Cyclic-Nucleotide,Phosphodiesterase, 3',5'-Nucleotide,Phosphodiesterase, 3,5-Cyclic AMP,Phosphodiesterase, CAMP,Phosphodiesterases, 3',5'-Cyclic-AMP
