1. The intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of 1 or 10 micrograms ovalbumin to sensitized Balb/c mice led to an acute histamine release, firstly evidenced 1 min after the challenge and returning to basal levels 30 min thereafter. This phenomenon was unaccompanied

The potential involvement of lipoxygenase metabolites in the tumour growth stimulatory activity of arachidonic and linoleic acid has been studied using the 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors, BWA4C, BWB70C and Zileuton. In vitro the former two agents were relatively potent inhibitors of growth

It has been shown previously that both forms of interleukin-1, 1 alpha and 1 beta, produce dose-dependent relaxation of the rat gastric fundus in vitro, accompanied by an increased production and release of eicosanoids. This effect appears to be mediated
We have used stopped-flow rapid reaction methods, employing both fluorescence and absorbance monitoring, together with HPLC analysis of the products to study the activation of soybean 15-lipoxygenase by 13(S)-hydroperoxy-9, 11(E,Z)-octadecadienoic acid (13-HPOD). When lipoxygenase is mixed with an equimolar concentration

1. Exogenous vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) infused into the pulmonary artery of isolated and ventilated lungs of guinea-pigs decreased, in a dose-dependent fashion (1.0-10.0 nmol), airway resistance and thromboxane B2 (TXB2, the stable hydrolysis product of TXA2) release in the
