| In vitro |
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.

| In vivo | 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] |

Bio Calculators
Molarity Calculator
Calculate the mass, volume or concentration required for a solution. The Selleck molarity calculator is based on the following equation:
Mass (mg) = Concentration (mM) × Volume (mL) × Molecular Weight (g/mol)
*When preparing stock solutions, please always use the batch-specific molecular weight of the product found on the via label and MSDS / COA (available on product pages).
Dilution Calculator
Calculate the dilution required to prepare a stock solution. The Selleck dilution calculator is based on the following equation:
Concentration (start) x Volume (start) = Concentration (final) x Volume (final)
This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2 ( Input Output )
* When preparing stock solutions always use the batch-specific molecular weight of the product found on the vial label and MSDS / COA (available online).

Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
Molecular mass (molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed in the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
