Tadalafil, a Ý-carboline derivatives that has been introduced to the market for treatment of Male Erectile Dysfunction, acts through inhibition of Phosphodiesterase 5, leading to elevation of cGMP, vascular relaxation in the corpora cavernosa and penile erection during sexual stimulation. The safety, tolerability of PDE5 inhibition as well as the involvement of cGMP as a key component in itracellular signaling may provide new therapeutic applications for this class of drugs
