Interleukin-1 (IL-1) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) have been reported to stimulate the release of corticotrophin-releasing hormone (CRH) in vitro, the response being antagonized by the cyclo-oxygenase inhibitor, indomethacin. The effects of cytokines on the other major ACTH-releasing hormone, vasopressin (AVP), and

Recently we demonstrated that the eosinophil migration into rat peritoneal cavities induced by a large volume of saline is mediated by LTB4 released by the resident macrophages and mast cells. In the present study, we have investigated the involvement of

Linoleic acid is converted to 8R-hydroperoxylinoleic acid by the soluble 8R-dioxygenase of the fungus Gaeumannomyces graminis. Effects of different lipoxygenase inhibitors on the 8R-dioxygenase were evaluated. Three hydroxamic acid derivatives were investigated. BW A4C (N-(3-phenoxycinnamyl)acetohydroxamic acid) was the most potent

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
