Haploinsufficiency of PDE2A causes in mice increased exploratory behavior associated with upregulation of neural nitric oxide synthase in the striatum by Ana Gabriela de Oliveira do Rêgo, Francesca D'Amico, Vincenza D’Angelo, Silvia Cardarelli, Debora Cutuli, Davide Decandia, Eugenia Landolfo, Laura Petrosini, Manuela Pellegrini, Marcello D’Amelio, Nicola Biagio Mercuri, Mauro Giorgi, Giuseppe Sancesario

“…Interestingly, in HET mice the expression level of brain nNOS, measured by western blot and immune-histochemistry was significantly increased, particularly in interneurons from the striatum.In conclusion, the deficiency of PDE2A could be compensated in the striatum by upregulating nNOS/NO/cGMP pathway, which in turn likely upregulates PDE2A-dependent cAMP hydrolysis. …”
