The aim of this study was to investigate in human skin in vivo the role of nitric oxide in maintaining resting vascular tone, in the vasodilatation caused by local warming and by ultraviolet B light exposure, and in the response to exogenous calciton

Prostaglandins are potent mediators of inflammatory and immune responses in human skin and are important effector molecules in the cellular responses to cytokines, especially interleukin-1. In vitro studies have demonstrated that prostaglandins are s

1. In human cultured umbilical vein endothelial cells, interleukin-1 potentiated histamine-induced release of prostacyclin in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. 2. In cells incubated with interleukin-1 for 24 h, maximal potentiation was obse
