20 A. Glucocorticoid drugs 3. Clinical uses ICS are now recommended as first-line therapy for all patients with persistent asthma, including children. Current guidelines suggest that high doses of ICS should be used only in patients with severe disease (FEV1 < 50% predicted) who have frequent exacerbations ( 2 per year) which would comprise about 10% of patients, whereas currently high-dose ICS are used in approximately 80% of patients with a clinical diagnosis of COPD.

21 Interaction with β2-adrenergic receptors Clinical Reviews in Allergy & Immunology, 2006:231

22 Interactions and effects on gene expression that may occur between long-acting b2-adrenoceptor agonists, or other camp-elevating agents, and glucocorticoids

23 4.Adverse effects

24 Adverse effects of glucocorticoid drugs: Effects resulting from continued used of large doses

25 B. PDE4 inhibitors Roflumilast ( 罗 氟 司 特 ) 1. Pharmacological effects Inhibits inflammation Bronchial dilating effect Attenuates bronchial remodeling 2. Clinical uses Approved for the treatment of asthma and COPD (2010), once daily 3. Adverse effects Diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea, weight loss, headache, insomnia, depression, etc.

26 B. PDE4 inhibitors Klaus F. Rabe, BJP,2011

27 B. PDE4 inhibitors Combination of PDE4 inhibitor with ICS: Enhanced the glucocorticoid function, suggesting its use as a glucocorticoid sensitising Combination of PDE4 inhibitor with LABAs(long-acting β2-adrenoceptor agonist): Enhance anti-inflammatory glucocorticoid activity above the level produced by an inhaled glucocorticoid/laba combination therapy alone. because LABAs and PDE4 inhibitors act on the same signaling pathway (i.e. they increase camp synthesis and block camp degradation, respectively), they may act synergistically. F1000Prime Rep Feb 3;7:16.

28 C. Leukotriene modifiers (LTM) CysLT1 receptor antagonist montelukast ( 孟 鲁 司 特 ) zafirlukast ( 扎 鲁 司 特 ) 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors zileuton ( 齐 留 通 )

Clinical use: taken four times per day Zileuton is used for the maintenance treatment of asthma. Adverse effects sinusitis( 鼻 窦 炎 ), nausea, pharyngolaryngeal pain( 咽 喉 疼 痛 )

34 D. Inhibitors of mediator release Disodium cromoglycate 色 甘 酸 二 钠 ( cromolyn ) ( 色 甘 酸 钠 ) Sodium nedocromil ( 萘 多 罗 米 钠 )

36 Cromolyn Inhibits mediator release from mast cells

37 D. Inhibitors of mediator release Other inhibitors of mediator release: Sodium nedocromil( 萘 多 罗 米 钠 ) Inhibiting mediators release from mast cell or other cells, the effect is better than disodium cromoglycate. Ketotifen( 酮 替 芬 ) Inhibiting mediators release, and antagonizing H 1 receptor.
