Product Description

Roflumilast (BY-217; APTA-2217; B 9302-107; BYK20869; Daxas; Daliresp) is a novel, highly potent, selective, and long-acting inhibitor of phosphodiesterase 4/PDE4 with potential anti-inflammatory activity. It inhibits PDE4 with IC50s of 0.2-4.3 nM in a cell-free assay. It has anti-inflammatory effects and is under development as an orally administered drug for the treatment of inflammatory conditions of the lungs such as asthma, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In vitro studies show that roflumilast inhibits the production of inflammatory mediators in a variety of human immune cells, suggesting a role for reducing COPD-related inflammation.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Roflumilast is a subnanomolar inhibitor of the majority of PDE4 splice variants tested and has no effect on PDE enzymes other than PDE4. With the exception of PDE4C (4C1, IC50=3 nM; 4C2, IC50= 4.3 nM), which is inhibited with somewhat lesser potency, it does not demonstrate PDE4 isoform selectivity [2]. A strong and specific PDE4 inhibitor is roflumast. At concentrations up to 10,000-fold, roflumilast does not affect other PDE isoenzymes, such as PDE1, PDE2, PDE3, or PDE5. This makes it a monoselective inhibitor of PDE4. Roflumilast inhibits the activity of human neutrophils. Roflumilast prevents monocyte-derived dendritic cells from synthesizing TNFα. Cytokine synthesis and CD4+ T cell proliferation are inhibited by rolfumilast. Up to 60% of proliferation can be inhibited by rolumilast at a potency (IC30) of 7 nM [3].
ln Vivo
Studies on animals using roflumilast have demonstrated that it decreases the build-up of neutrophils in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid following short-term tobacco smoke exposure in mice, rats, or guinea pigs; additionally, it eliminates the infiltration of inflammatory cells in the lung parenchyma of rats exposed to tobacco smoke for seven months [2]. In pIgR, rolumilast prevents the advancement of COPD?*? rats. 9-month-old WT or pIgR for these investigations?*? For three months, mice received oral gavage treatment with either 100 μg of Roflumilast (5 μg/g) or a vehicle (4% methylcellulose, 1.3% PEG400). Around the age of 12 months, the lungs were taken. When Roflumilast was administered to mice, minor airway wall remodeling did not advance as it did in vehicle-treated pIgR-/- animals. Surprisingly, pIgR aged 12 months who received rolumilast?*? Compared to 9-month-old pIgR, mice's emphysema index was lower.*? Roflumilast not only stops pulmonary emphysema from developing in this scenario, as demonstrated by the mice. appears to aid in the resolution of the emphysematous loss of lung parenchyma throughout the course of emphysema [4].

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
