The aim of the study was to estimate an eventual contribution of leukotrienes in respiratory mechanic changes observed in guinea-pig during bronchial anaphylaxis. Twenty-eight guinea-pigs, actively sensitized to ovalbumin, were anesthetized and curarized before being challenged, during controlled ventilation, with

We investigated the effects of ONO-1078, a newly synthesized peptide leukotriene (p-LT antagonist, on the specific binding of radiolabelled [3H]-LTC4, [3H]-LTD4 and [3H]-LTE4 to a human lung crude membrane fraction (HLMF). The binding assay was performed under conditions in which

A newly synthesized compound, 4-((3,4-(methylenedioxy)benzyl)amino)-6,7,8-trimethoxyquinazoline (6), had a potent (IC50 = 0.36 microM) inhibitory action on cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase (cGMP-PDE) isolated from porcine aorta; its inhibitory activities toward other PDE isozymes were at least 10-fold weaker. In addition, 6 relaxed

The research of the last two decades in the field of SRS-A and peptidoleukotriene (pLT) antagonists has provided information for the design of potent pLT antagonists, which share some or all of the following structural elements: (1) a lipophilic anchor
To examine a potential relationship between pulmonary vasodilatation and fetal lung liquid production, I measured lung liquid production in 20 fetal sheep at 130 +/- 4 days gestation while using several agents known to increase pulmonary blood flow. Thirty-two studies
