Gene: PDE11A
Official Full Name: phosphodiesterase 11Aprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The 3',5'-cyclic nucleotides cAMP and cGMP function as second messengers in a wide variety of signal transduction pathways. 3',5'-cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs) catalyze the hydrolysis of cAMP and cGMP to the corresponding 5'-monophosphates and provide a mechanism to downregulate cAMP and cGMP signaling. This gene encodes a member of the PDE protein superfamily. Mutations in this gene are a cause of Cushing disease and adrenocortical hyperplasia. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

PDE11A Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized genetically modified cell lines in which the PDE11A gene, associated with phosphodiesterase activity, has been inactivated. These cell lines serve as powerful tools in molecular biology and pharmacology research, allowing scientists to study the role of PDE11A in various physiological and pathological processes, including its implications in neurotransmission and cancer development.
The key functions of these knockout cell lines involve the exploration of the downstream effects of reduced phosphodiesterase activity. By examining changes in intracellular signaling pathways, researchers can elucidate the mechanisms by which PDE11A influences cyclic nucleotide levels, thereby affecting a range of biological responses such as cell proliferation, apoptosis, and inflammatory signaling. The absence of PDE11A provides a unique opportunity to investigate the compensatory mechanisms that may arise and how other signaling pathways are modulated in response to the loss of this gene.
From a scientific perspective, the PDE11A Gene Knockout Cell Lines hold significant importance in both fundamental and applied research. They are invaluable for studying conditions thought to be influenced by PDE11A, including depression, prostate cancer, and several cardiovascular diseases. Researchers can exploit these models to assess drug responses, screen for PDE inhibitors, and develop targeted therapies that may leverage the metabolic implications of altered phosphodiesterase activity.
Compared to traditional cell lines, which may express varying levels of PDE11A and confound experimental results, the specificity and consistency of our PDE11A knockout cell lines enable more reliable and reproducible experiments. These cell lines are rigorously validated to maintain genetic stability and mimic physiological environments, providing a distinct advantage for precision research.
For researchers and clinicians, the availability of PDE11A Gene Knockout Cell Lines bridges critical gaps in understanding disease mechanisms and therapeutic targets. Their use can lead to advancements in personalized medicine by fostering the development of tailored treatments aimed at modulating phosphodiesterase activity.
