Popis: | Mouse pleurisy induced by carrageenan is used to determine the mechanism of anti-inflammatory action of 7-chloro-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-1,3-dihydro-1-methyl-2-H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2 (Ro5-4864). Pre-treatment with Ro5-4864 inhibits different inflammatory parameters, such as neutrophil influx, MPO activity and NO levels in the early phase (4 h), as well as mononuclear cells and ADA activity in the late phase (48 h) of pleurisy. dl-Aminoglutethimide, inhibitor of steroidal synthesis, reverted the effect of Ro5-4864 on these different inflammatory parameters. Our results suggest that anti-inflammatory action of Ro5-4864 may be partly due to its capacity to inhibit leukocyte migration, as well as leukocyte activation and formation of NO by a mechanism dependent on glucocorticoids. |
