Table 1. Effect of PDE3 and PDE4 inhibition on -(dP/dt)max.

Saline-treated, mmHg/s (n) PTX-treated, mmHg/s (n)
WT -1491±467 (8) 890±534 (11)a
AC5KO -1686±698 (7) 844±576 (7)a
AC6KO -2488±357 (9) -1656±439 (9)b

Shown are the differences (mean±SEM) between the -(dP/dt)max recorded after timolol and after subsequent cilostamide and rolipram (Cil/Rol). Note that in PTX-treated mice, Cil/Rol increased the -(dP/dt)max after timolol in WT and AC5KO but decreased it in AC6KO. In contrast, Cil/Rol decreased the -(dP/dt)max in all groups that were saline-treated. Data are given in mmHg/s (mean±SEM).

a P<0.05 Saline vs PTX in respective group, two-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons test;

b P<0.05 AC6KO PTX vs WT PTX and AC5KO PTX, two-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons test.
