T1 184-319 DRI_Background denotes Selective phosphodiesterase (PDE) 4 inhibitors have recently been introduced into the therapy of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
T2 320-472 DRI_Challenge denotes However, suppression of airway reactivity and eosinophilic inflammation by increased intracellular cAMP could be beneficial in bronchial asthma as well.
T3 473-699 DRI_Background denotes PDE5 inhibitors are used for the therapy of erectile dysfunction, pulmonary hypertension, and other cardiovascular diseases, but an expression of PDE5 in several immune cells suggests its perspectives in inflammation, as well.
T4 700-1061 DRI_Outcome denotes To bring a new information on the therapeutically relevant potential of PDE4 and PDE5 inhibitors in allergic inflammation, this study evaluated the effects of 7-days administration of PDE5 inhibitor tadalafil and PDE4 inhibitor roflumilast in experimentally-induced allergic inflammation and compared their action with effects of a corticosteroid dexamethasone.
T5 1062-1109 DRI_Background denotes In the study, male adult guinea pigs were used.
T6 1110-1313 DRI_Background denotes Control group was non-sensitized, while other animals were ovalbumin-sensitized over two weeks and thereafter treated intraperitoneally for 7 days with tadalafil or roflumilast (daily dose 1.0 mg/kg b.w.
T7 1421-1796 DRI_Background denotes Both tadalafil and roflumilast reduced the specific airway resistance after nebulization of histamine (a marker of in vivo airway reactivity), and decreased the in vitro airway reactivity to cumulative doses of histamine and acetylcholine in tracheal strips (significant for roflumilast) and in lung tissue strips (significant for both agents), analyzed by organ bath method.
T8 1797-2005 DRI_Approach denotes These changes were associated with decreased numbers of circulating leukocytes and eosinophils and lower production of interleukins 4 and 5, nuclear factor kappa B and tumor necrosis factor alpha in the lung.
T9 2006-2059 DRI_Background denotes Similar effects were observed also for dexamethasone.
T10 2060-2181 DRI_Background denotes Roflumilast and tadalafil, but not their combination with reduced doses, lowered lung TBARS, a marker of lipid oxidation.
T11 2182-2396 DRI_Outcome denotes Selective PDE5 inhibition alleviated allergic airway inflammation, but it was less potent than PDE4 inhibition, whereas anti-inflammatory action of the PDE inhibitors was comparable to the effects of dexamethasone.
