Inhibition of Allergic Reactions by Cromoglycate and by a New Anti-Allergic Drug (10-Chloro-1,4,6,9-Tetrahydro-4,6-Dioxopyrido[3,2-g]Quinoline-2,8-Dicarboxylic Acid)
Abstract:Immediate type hypersensitivity to Ascaris antigen in rhesus reactor monkeys was used to assess the pharmacologic profile of Cromolyn Na and a new inhibitor of IgE-medited lung function changes. Cutaneous reactivity to Ascaris correlated poorly with a respiratory response to the antigen. Two parameters used to measure lung function, respiratory rate increase and tidal volume decrease, were significantly altered by Cromolyn Na and compound A.
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.
