Sildenafil Action PathwayHomo sapiens
Sildenafil is a phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction.
Sexual stimulation causes the release of nitric oxide (NO) from nerves and endothelial cells into the penis. NO activates the enzyme guanylate cyclase.2 The activation of this enzyme is followed by the synthesis of cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP), activating a cascade of protein kinase-dependent phosphorylation events in smooth muscles, ultimately resulting in the dephosphorylation of myosin light chains within smooth muscle. This activity causes the relaxation of smooth muscle within blood vessels, resulting in the desired vasodilatory effect. Phosphodiesterase-5 breaks down cGMP to GMP. Sildenafil inhibits phosphodiesterase-5, preventing the breakdown of cGMP. This increases the concentration of cGMP, increasing the vasodilation and improving blood flow leading to penile erection.

Silver sulfadiazine Drug MetabolismHomo sapiens
Silver sulfadiazine is a drug that is not metabolized by the human body as determined by current research and biotransformer analysis. Silver sulfadiazine passes through the liver and is then excreted from the body mainly through the kidney.
