Natural compounds with xanthine oxidase inhibitory activity: A review.

abstract：:Phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) is an important enzyme involved in the hydrolysis of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) to guanosine monophosphate (GMP). The inhibition of this protein leads to the accumulation of cGMP in cells with various biological and therapeutic effects. Several PDE-5 inhibitors exist, with T...
