Ibudilast-d7 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of ibudilast by GC- or LC-MS. Ibudilast is an inhibitor of phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4; IC50s = 54, 65, 239, and 166 nM for PDE4A-D, respectively).1 It is selective for PDE4 over PDE1, PDE7A, PDE7B, and PDE9A (IC50s = ≥10,000 nM for all) but does inhibit PDE3A, PDE3B, and PDE5A (IC50s = 1,600, 2,700, and 3,510 nM, respectively). Ibudilast inhibits LPS-induced production of TNF-α and fMLP-induced production of leukotriene B4 (LTB4; ) in isolated human whole blood (IC50s = 6.2 and 2.5 μM, respectively). It inhibits bronchospasm by 34% in a guinea pig model of leukotriene-mediated allergic bronchospasm when administered intravenously at a dose of 5 mg/kg.2 Ibudilast prevents increases in TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 expression in the striatum in a mouse model of MPTP-induced Parkinson's disease.3 It also increases striatal expression of glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) in MPTP-treated and -untreated mice when administered at doses of 40 and 50 mg/kg, respectively, twice per day. | [Uses]
Ibudilast-d7 is the deuterium labeled Ibudilast. Ibudilast (KC-404; AV-411; MN-166) is a cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitor. Ibudilast has platelet anti-aggregatory effects. Ibudilast can be used for the research of asthma for its inhibitory effects on tracheal smooth muscle contractility. Ibudilast may be a useful neuroprotective and anti-dementia agent counteracting neurotoxicity in activated microglia[1]. | [References]
