Title: Effect of a 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor on nerve growth factor-induced thermal hyperalgesia in the rat. Author: Amann R, Schuligoi R, Lanz I, Peskar BA. Journal: Eur J Pharmacol; 1996 Jun 13; 306(1-3):89-91. PubMed ID: 8813619. Abstract: Intraplantar injection of mouse beta (2.5S) nerve growth factor (NGF) caused thermal hyperalgesia and stimulated release of immunoreactive leukotriene B4 from the rat paw skin. Both effects of NGF were prevented by the 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor, (R)-2-[4-quinolin-2-yl-methoxy)phenyl]-2-cyclopentyl acetic acid (BAY X1005). BAY X1005 did not affect bradykinin-induced thermal hyperalgesia. These results suggest the participation of 5-lipoxygenase products of arachidonate in NGF-induced local thermal hyperalgesia.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
