General Information | Comment | Organism |

malfunction | administration of wortmannin completely reversed the stimulatory effect of leptin on PDE3B activity in the hypothalamus | Rattus norvegicus |
metabolism | leptin action through its receptor involves various pathways including the signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT3), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3K), and phosphodiesterase 3B (PDE3B)-cAMP signaling in the CNS and peripheral tissues. In the hypothalamus, leptin stimulates STAT3 activation, and induces PI3K and PDE3B activities, among others | Rattus norvegicus |
physiological function | phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase is an upstream regulator of PDE3B in non-neuronal tissues, but it also is an upstream regulator of the phosphodiesterase 3B pathway of leptin signalling that may not involve activation of Akt/protein kinase B in the rat hypothalamus. In adipocytes, insulin stimulates MAPK, p70S6 kinase and Akt through wortmannin sensitive mechanisms, i.e., PI3K mechanism, but the PDE3B activation by insulin is due to PKB phosphorylation, suggesting the role of PI3K-Akt-PDE3B pathway in insulin signaling | Rattus norvegicus |
