NO-independent stimulators and activators of soluble guanylate cyclase: discovery and therapeutic potential

…, PM Schmidt, G Haskó, HHHW Schmidt… - Nature reviews Drug …, 2006 - nature.com
Soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) is a key signal-transduction enzyme activated by nitric
oxide (NO). Impaired bioavailability and/or responsiveness to endogenous NO has been …

[HTML][HTML] Targeting the heme-oxidized nitric oxide receptor for selective vasodilatation of diseased blood vessels

JP Stasch, PM Schmidt, PI Nedvetsky… - The Journal of …, 2006 - Am Soc Clin Investig
ROS are a risk factor of several cardiovascular disorders and interfere with NO/soluble guanylyl
cyclase/cyclic GMP (NO/sGC/cGMP) signaling through scavenging of NO and formation …

[HTML][HTML] The endocannabinoid anandamide protects neurons during CNS inflammation by induction of MKP-1 in microglial cells

…, A Witting, C Mawrin, T Lee, PM Schmidt… - Neuron, 2006 - cell.com
Endocannabinoids are released after brain injury and believed to attenuate neuronal damage
by binding to CB 1 receptors and protecting against excitotoxicity. Such excitotoxic brain …

NO-and haem-independent soluble guanylate cyclase activators

HHHW Schmidt, PM Schmidt, JP Stasch - cGMP: Generators, Effectors and …, 2009 - Springer
Oxidative stress, a risk factor for several cardiovascular disorders, interferes with the NO/sGC/cGMP
signalling pathway through scavenging of NO and formation of the strong …

[HTML][HTML] Identification of residues crucially involved in the binding of the heme moiety of soluble guanylate cyclase

PM Schmidt, M Schramm, H Schröder… - Journal of Biological …, 2004 - ASBMB
Soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC), a heterodimeric hemeprotein, is the only receptor for the
biological messenger nitric oxide (NO) identified to date and is intimately involved in various …

Nitric Oxide–Independent Vasodilator Rescues Heme-Oxidized Soluble Guanylate Cyclase From Proteasomal Degradation

…, M Karas, JP Stasch, HHHW Schmidt… - Circulation …, 2009 - Am Heart Assoc
Nitric oxide (NO) is an essential vasodilator. In vascular diseases, oxidative stress attenuates
NO signaling by both chemical scavenging of free NO and oxidation and downregulation of …

Microgravity-induced alterations in signal transduction in cells of the immune system

K Paulsen, C Thiel, J Timm, PM Schmidt, K Huber… - Acta Astronautica, 2010 - Elsevier
Since decades it is known that the activity of cells of the immune system is severely dysregulated
in microgravity, however, the underlying molecular aspects have not been elucidated …

PM Schmidt, RM Attwood, PG Mohr, SA Barrett… - PloS one, 2011 - journals.plos.org
The influenza surface glycoprotein neuraminidase (NA) is essential for the efficient spread
of the virus. Antiviral drugs such as Tamiflu (oseltamivir) and Relenza (zanamivir) that inhibit …

Detection of activity of telomerase in tumor cells using fiber optical biosensors

PM Schmidt, C Lehmann, E Matthes, FF Bier - Biosensors and …, 2002 - Elsevier
Human telomerase plays an important role in the cancerogenesis as it is up-regulated in 80–90%
of malignant tumors. Thus, it is considered as a potential cancer marker and relevant …
