The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of inhaled apocynin on ROS (reactive oxygen species) and NOS (reactive nitrogen species) synthesis in 13 COPD patients. Effects of nebulized apocynin (0.5 mg/ml, 6 ml) were assessed in exhaled breath condensate (EBC) after 30, 60 and 120 minutes.
Apocynin reduced hydrogen peroxide concentration in exhaled breath condensate 60 and 120 minutes after apocynin nebulization comparing to placebo (0.43 μM vs. 0.59 μM and 0.41 μM vs. 0.58 μM respectively, p<0.05). Interestingly, apocynin caused decrease of NO2- concentration 30, 60 and 120 minutes after apocynin inhalation (3.9 μM vs. 4.5 μM, 3.8 μM vs. 4.5 μM and 3.7 μM vs. 4,4 μM respectively, p<0.05) comparing to placebo, but did not cause any significant changes in concentration of NO3- in any timepoint (p>0.05). No influence of apocynin on safety parameters, and no adverse effects has been observed.

| COPD patients | Experimental | Thirteen nonsmoking patients, suffering from GOLD II and GOLD III stage participated in the study (mean age 57 years (range 42-79), 9 men, 4 women). COPD was diagnosed based on GOLD 2009 criteria. All the participants were diagnosed at Department of Clinical Physiology, Medical university of Lodz. |

| Apocynin and placebo nebulization | Drug | 6 ml of apocynin of total dose 3 mg (0.5 mg/ml dissolved in sterile 0.9% NaCl as the study drug) and 0,9% NaCl as placebo, has been nebulized for 15-20 min through the mouthpiece with using of a nose clip. A nebulizer Pulmo Aide AP-50 (DeVilbiss; Richmond, VA) was used (mass median aerosol diameter 3.1 mm, output 0.3 ml/min.) |
