Content of prostaglandin E2 was decreased more than 6-fold in blood plasma of immobilized rats; on the other hand, concentration of 5-hydroxytetraenoic acid was increased more than 3-fold. No distinct alterations were noted in the prostaglandin F2 alpha content. Intraperitoneal preadministration of 0.1 mg/kg of 2 beta, 25-di (beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-16 alpha; 20-dihydroxy-3, 11, 22-trioxo-cucurbit-5-en into the animals, which as far as is known to augment the working capacity of mice, prevented the stress-induced alterations in the eicosanoid contents in blood plasma. |
