Hormonal regulation of phosphodiesterase 3B in adipocytes
… induced activation of the cAMP degrading enzyme phosphodiesterase (PDE) 3B in adipocytes is important for insulin mediated inhibition of lipolysis. The aim of this thesis was to contribute with knowledge on the acute activation of PDE3B in response to insulin and catecholamines in adipocytes. The …

THE ROLE OF PHOSPHODIESTERASE 3B IN CAMP-MEDIATED REGULATION OF INSULIN SECRETION
… to investigate the role of ?-cell cAMP-degrading phosphodiesterase 3B (PDE3B) in the regulation of insulin secretion and whole body energy homeostasis. The specific aims were (i) to study the physiological importance of well-regulated ?-cell-cAMP levels for insulin release and whole body energy …

Studies in beta cells and adipocytes in the context of obesity and T2D - focusing on PDE3B, OPN and SCFAs
… regard to the regulation of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase 3B (PDE3B) in pancreatic β-cells. We show that PDE3B is activated in response to glucose, insulin and forskolin, which is coupled to a decrease, no apparent change or an increase in total phosphorylation of the enzyme in rat …

The role of supplementary calcium in submaximal exercise and endurance performance.
… of cyclic Adenosine Monophosphate (cAMP) and phosphodiesterase 3B (PDE 3B) has been implicated in the relationship between calcium and lipolysis (Xue et al., 2001). The objective of the series of studies presented in this thesis was to investigate the ergogenicity of supplementary calcium in …

Functional validation of human rare missense variants associated with body fat distribution and cardiometabolic risk
… p.N150H), CALCRL (p.L87P), PLIN1 (p.L90P) and PDE3B (p.R783X) which were associated with a favourable body fat distribution and with protection from cardiometabolic disease, while a variant in gene PNPLA2 (p.N252K) was associated with an adverse phenotype (1). To understand the roles of these …
