Four compounds with H1 anti-histamine activity and four adrenoceptor stimulants, each given to rats prior to passive peritoneal anaphylaxis (PPA), inhibited extravasation of serum proteins into the peritoneal fluid at doses which had no effect on histamine release. In contrast, aminophylline and some non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents inhibited extravasation only at doses which inhibited histamine release; they showed a similar type of activity to that of disodium cromoglycate (DSCG) and a nitroindanedione (BRL 10833), although they were much less potent. Predosing with DSCG reduced the potency of subsequent doses of DSCG, BRL 10833 and indomethacin, but not of aminophylline or phenylbutazone, and therefore DSCG, BRL 10833 and indomethacin may share a common pathway to produce activity. In the rat PPA system, no evidence was found for histamine ‘feedback’ inhibition of histamine release.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
