In the original article, there was an error in Table 1 as published. The n numbers given in the legend to Table 1 were only applicable to the first row of the table. The corrected Table 1 and its caption appear below.
TABLE 1. Inhibition of human recombinant PDE4 subtypes by BI 1015550 in comparison to roflumilast and its active metabolite Roflu-N-Ox. IC50 values (nmol/L) are given as means from n independent experiments. Cell extracts containing the active site fragments mediated the conversion of 10 µL [3H]cAMP (0.05 µCi in H2O) to AMP resulting in the binding of this radiolabeled molecule to the yttrium silicate SPA beads and the subsequent generation of scintillation events determined using a Wallac Microbeta counter. AMP, adenosine monophosphate; IC50, inhibitory concentration (nM) for half-maximal inhibition; PDE, phosphodiesterase; SPA, scintillation proximity assay.
The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
