Patent Documents 1 and 2 report an oxazole compound having a specific inhibitory action on phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) and a method for producing the same. PDE4 is the predominant PDE in inflammatory cells, inhibition of PDE4 increases intracellular cAMP concentration, and the increase in this concentration downregulates the inflammatory response through regulation of the expression of TNF-α, IL-23, and other inflammatory cytokines. .. Elevated cAMP levels also increase anti-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-10. Therefore, it is considered that the oxazole compound is suitable for use as an anti-inflammatory agent. For example, it may be useful for controlling skin eczema and dermatitis, including atopic dermatitis. Patent Document 3 describes an ointment that stably contains an oxazole compound having a specific inhibitory effect on PDE4 and can be efficiently absorbed into the skin. The contents of Patent Documents 1 to 3 are incorporated in the present specification by reference.
