Ipratropium bromide monohydrate (Ipratropium bromide hydrate) is a muscarinic antagonist structurally related to ATROPINE but often considered safer and more effective for inhalation use. It is used for various bronchial disorders, in rhinitis, and as an antiarrhythmic.

Doxofylline (Doxophylline) is a methylxanthine derivative with the presence of a dioxolane group in position 7. As a drug used in the treatment of asthma, doxofylline has shown similar efficacy to theophylline but with significantly fewer side effects in animal and human studies.

Theophylline monohydrate (Quibron) appears to inhibit phosphodiesterase and prostaglandin production, regulate calcium flux and intracellular calcium distribution, and antagonize adenosine. Theophylline monohydrate is a natural alkaloid derivative of xanthine isolated from the plants Camellia sinensis and Coffea arabica. Physiologically, this agent relaxes the bronchial smooth muscle, produces vasodilation (except in cerebral vessels), stimulates the CNS, stimulates the cardiac muscle, induces diuresis, and increases gastric acid secretion; it may also suppress inflammation and improve contractility of the diaphragm.

Montelukast sodium (MK0476) is an orally available leukotriene receptor antagonist which is widely used for the prophylaxis and chronic treatment of asthma and has been linked to rare cases of clinically apparent liver injury.

Ibudilast (MN-166)(KC-404;AV-411;MN-166) is a relatively nonselective phosphodiesterase inhibitor. It is approved for use as an anti-inflammatory in Japan.

Setipiprant (ACT-129968) is an orally available, selective CRTH2 antagonist (IC50: 6.0 nM). CRTH2, a G protein-coupled receptor for prostaglandin (PGD2), mediates key inflammatory responses related to allergy and asthma. PGD2, produced by mast cells, binds to CRTH2 on blood-borne cells, inducing chemotaxis of Th2 cells, basophils, and eosinophils, and stimulating cytokine release.

Cilomilast (SB-207499) is a potent PDE4 inhibitor with an IC50 of approximately 110 nM, demonstrating anti-inflammatory activity and minimal central nervous system effects. Phase 3.

Omalizumab is a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody against human immunoglobulin E IgE)

Sulfuretin is a potent anti-oxidant, has protective effect against t-BHP-induced oxidative damage in human liver-derived HepG2 cells is attributable to its ability to scavenge ROS and up-regulate the activity of HO-1 through the Nrf2 ARE and JNK ERK signa

Asthma relating compound 1 is a potential anti-asthma compound.

Antiasthmatic Compound 1 is an antiasthmatic agent.

Tezepelumab (AMG 157) is a humanized monoclonal antibody (IgG2λ) targeting TSLP that prevents TSLP from interacting with its heterodimer receptor. Tezepelumab can be used to study advanced asthma disease.

Rocaglamide (Roc-A), isolated from the genus Aglaia, can be used to treat coughs, injuries, asthma, and inflammatory skin diseases. It is a potent inhibitor of NF-κB activation in T-cells.

3-CPs (3-Carbethoxypsoralen) is a bleomycin-induced serotypic podoplanar polysaccharide in mouse lung fibrosis that belongs to the psoralen family and interferes with antibody-mediated bacterial killing.3-CPs delays bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis in mice and can be used in studies of airway inflammation and asthma.

PDE IV-IN-1 is a potent phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitor with anti-inflammatory activity for the treatment of asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and other inflammatory diseases, and is a potential compound for the study of depression.

A-69412 (N-1-(Fur-3-ylethyl)-N-hydroxyurea) is a reversible, specific inhibitor of the hydrophilic 5-lipoxygenase. It has the potential to treat ulcerative colitis and asthma, and possibly other inflammatory and allergic conditions.

CP 96021 is a group of 5-HT1 receptors and 5-HT2 receptors antagonists that have anti-inflammatory properties and are non-non-self anti-ulcer compounds for the treatment of gastrointestinal tract and respiratory asthma.

Gemilukast (ONO-6950) is an orally active and potent dual inhibitor of cysteinyl leukotriene 1 and 2 receptors (CysLT1 and CysLT2), inhibits LTC 4-induced bronchoconstriction, and is inhibitory to human CysLT1 and CysLT2, and may be used in the treatment of asthma.

HSR6071 is a novel orally active and potent anti-allergic agent with inhibitory effects on passive cutaneous anaphylaxis. HSR6071 showed anti-asthmatic activity in a rat model of experimental asthma.

RS-601 is a potent dual leukotriene D4 thromboxane A2 inhibitor that inhibits antigen-induced airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) and shows asthmatic effects in a guinea pig model of asthma.

ZK-90055 hydrochloride, a β2 adrenergic receptor agonist, is employed in the study of asthma.

Tipelukast (KCA 757) is a novel, orally available leukotriene receptor antagonist with anti-inflammatory properties, capable of reducing fibrosis and down-regulating TIMP-1 and type 1 collagen. Tipelukast is utilized in asthma research.

KP136 (AL136) is an orally active anti-allergic compound that inhibits histamine release and is used in studies of asthma and allergic edema.

LAS101057 is a novel orally available and potent and selective A2B receptor antagonist for the study of asthma.
