Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Both oral and intravenous inhibitors of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE) 3 and PDE4 have been shown to have bronchodilator and/or pulmonary antiallergic effects but their adverse effects limit the clinical use. The purpose of the present study was to assess the bronchoprotective effect of intrabronchial administration of a selective PDE3 inhibitor, 6-[4-(1-cyclohexyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)butoxy]-3,4-dihydro-2(1H)-quin olinone (cilostazol), in dry power form which is proposed to be desirable rather than propellant-driven metered-dose inhalers. METHODS:Effect of an intrabronchial administration of cilostazol powder on aerosolized histamine- and antigen-induced leukotriene-mediated bronchoconstriction were examined in anesthetized and artificially ventilated guinea pigs, in comparison with the effects of ultrasonically nebulized 5-phenyl-3-(3-pyridyl)methyl-3H-imidazo[4,5-c] [1,8] naphthyridin-4(5H)-one (KF19514), a selective PDE1/4 inhibitor. RESULTS:Cilostazol powder and KF19514 solution inhibited histamine- and antigen-induced bronchoconstriction in a dose-dependent manner. When assessing the resulting ED50 values, the activity of cilostazol powder against antigen-induced broncho-constriction was weaker than its antagonism of histamine-induced bronchoconstriction (60.4 vs. 7.0 microg), while those of KF19514 were the opposite (0.40 vs. 2.81 microg/ml). CONCLUSION:These results suggest that intrabronchially administered cilostazol powder has a bronchodilator effect, and ensure that PDE4 inhibitors have an antiallergic activity in addition to their bronchodilator effect.
