Comment: Tetomilast is a PDE4 inhibitor. Inhibition of PDE4 blocks the oxidative burst in human neutrophils, which is a major mediator of tissue injury in inflammatory diseases. Tetomilast (OPC-6535) was originally identified as an inhibitor of superoxide production by human neutrophils [1]. The clinical potential of PDE4 inhibition in inflammatory bowel disease was reviewed by Salari and Abdollahiin 2012 [2].
