Description

Roflumilast N-oxide is a PDE type 4 inhibitor.

IC50 & Target

PDE type 4[1]

In Vitro

Roflumilast N-oxide at 2 nM partly mitigates the cigarette smoke extract (CSE)-induced epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) in WD-HBEC in vitro. Roflumilast N-oxide (2 nM) reverses the compromised expression of E-cadherin transcripts following CSE by 45%. The expression of collagen type I is abrogated by Roflumilast N-oxide (2 nM). The epithelial cell phenotype appears protected when cells are co-incubated with Roflumilast N-oxide (2 nM). Pre-incubation with Roflumilast N-oxide (2 nM) also partly attenuates the nuclear translocation of β-catenin[2].

In Vivo

Single treatment of db/db mice with 10 mg/kg Roflumilast N-oxide enhances plasma glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) 4-fold. Chronic treatment of db/db mice with Roflumilast N-oxide at 3 mg/kg shows prevention of disease progression. Roflumilast-N-oxide abolishes the increase in blood glucose, reduces the increment in HbA1c by 50% and doubles fasted serum insulin compare with vehicle, concomitants with preservation of pancreatic islet morphology. Furthermore, Roflumilast-N-oxide amplifies forskolin-induced insulin release in primary islets. Roflumilast-N-oxide also shows stronger glucose-lowering effects than its parent compound[3].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.96 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.96 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

Cell Assay
[1]

A549 cells are washed and cultured overnight in serum-free F-12 K medium supplemented with antibiotics, L-glutamine and HEPES. The starved cells are incubated with Neutrophil elastase (NE) for 30 min or vehicle (PBS), washed with PBS and then cultured in serum free F-12 K. After stimulation, cell supernatants are collected at 24 h (for cytokine measurements) and cell pellets are collected after 2 h (for mRNA expression analysis). Alternatively, A549 cells are pre-incubated for 2 h with Roflumilast N-oxide (RNO) (at 0.1 μM, 0.3 μM and 1 μM), vehicle (DMSO 0.01%) prior to the addition of NE. All experiments are performed in serum-free medium in triplicate and are repeated at least three times. At the end of the incubation period, culture supernatants are harvested and stored at -80°C until further analysis[1].

Animal Administration
[3]

At 7 weeks of age, 16 h fasting mice receive a single oral dose of vehicle (4% methocel) or 10 mg/kg Roflumilast-N-oxide, and a glucose bolus of 2 g/kg body weight is co-administered as a physiological initiator for glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) secretion. Plasma GLP-1 is analyzed 60 min before, and 10 and 60 min after administration of Roflumilast-N-oxide and glucose. The effect of Roflumilast-N-oxide on plasma GLP-1 is also investigated in the absence of the glucose bolus[3].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
