Roflumilast displays anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory in vitro. Roflumilast inhibits LTB4 synthesis in human neutrophil with IC50 of 2 nM. Roflumilast inhibits fMLP-stimulated ROS formation as luminol-enhanced CL in human neutrophils or eosinophils with IC35 of 4 nM, and 7 nM, repectively. Roflumilast inhibits LPS-stimulated TNF-α synthesis in monocytes with IC40 of 21 nM. Roflumilast inhibits TNF-α synthesis in monocyte-derived dendritic cells with IC20 of 5 nM. Rolfumilast inhibits anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibody-stimulated proliferation of CD4+ T cells with IC30 of 7 nM. Rolfumilast inhibits anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibody-stimulated synthesis of IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, and IFN-v in CD4+ T cells with IC20 of 1 nM, IC30 of 7 nM, IC25 of 13 nM, and IC35 of 8 nM, respectively.

Roflumilast is activity against pulmonary inflammatory response related to COPD in animal model. Roflumilast (5 mg/kg/day) induces reduction of neutrophils, macrophages, DC, B-cells, CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells in the lung of mice exposed to tobacco smoke for 7 month by 78%, 82%, 48%, 100%, 98%, and 88%, respectively. [3] Roflumilast is an efficient inhibitor of lung fibrotic remodeling. Roflumilast dose-dependently diminishes total lung hydroxyproline after bleomycin, attaining about 47% inhibition at 5 mg/kg/day, paralleled by a reduction in lung αI(I) collagen transcripts and fibrotic lesions. Roflumilast reduces oxidative stress in vivo. Roflumilast (5 mg/kg/day) moderately reduces an increase in BAL fluid lipid hydroperoxides measured at day 14 after intratracheal bleomycin administration in mice. [4]

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
