Abstract
Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs) control the intracellular concentrations of cAMP and cGMP in virtually all mammalian cells. Accordingly, the PDE family regulates a myriad of physiological functions, including cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis, gene expression, central nervous system function, and muscle contraction. Along this line, dysfunction of PDEs has been implicated in neurodegenerative disorders, coronary artery diseases, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and cancer development. To date, 11 PDE families have been identified; however, their distinct roles in the various pathologies are largely unexplored and subject to contemporary research efforts. Indeed, there is growing interest for the development of isoform-selective PDE inhibitors as potential therapeutic agents. Similarly, the evolving knowledge on the various PDE isoforms has channeled the identification of new PET probes, allowing isoform-selective imaging. This review highlights recent advances in PDE-targeted PET tracer development, thereby focusing on efforts to assess disease-related PDE pathophysiology and to support isoform-selective drug discovery.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease carries a high morbidity and mortality and is one of the few chronic diseases where the number of people affected is rising, a trend that looks set to continue. Unfortunately patients often present at a late stage of the disease when therapeutic options are more limited and many patients are undertreated, overtreated or misdiagnosed. While patients present both in primary and secondary care it is primary care where the majority of patients are managed and where patients are likely to be seen at an earlier stage of the disease process when interventions are likely to be more effective. Therapeutic options for patients with COPD include pharmacological approaches and these should be prescribed on an individual basis and both subjective and objective criteria used in evaluating effectiveness.
