Effect of tenoxicam and indomethacin on the release of histamine, prostaglandin E2 and leukotrienes from various cells. 1987

W König, and J Brom, and W Schönfeld, and J Knöller, and M Stüning

Tenoxicam and indomethacin were studied with regard to their effects to modulate mediator release (histamine, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) mono-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids, leukotrienes) from various cells. For histamine release human lymphocytes, monocytes, and basophils were analyzed with either anti-IgE or the calcium ionophore A 23187. Rat mast cells were stimulated with the calcium ionophore A 23187. With tenoxicam significant inhibition of histamine release was obtained as compared to the effects of indomethacin. Enhancement of histamine release at defined concentrations was more often observed with indomethacin than with tenoxicam. At high concentrations of indomethacin the formation of the radiolabelled phospholipids and 5S-hydroxy-6-trans-8,11,14-cis-eicosatetraenoic acid (14C-arachidonic acid metabolites) from stimulated human polymorphonuclear neutrophilic leukocytes was inhibited. With regard to endogenous leukotriene and PGE2 release tenoxicam inhibited leukotrienes B4 and C4 and PGE2 release. Tenoxicam appeared to be more active than indomethacin.

D007213 Indomethacin A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent (NSAID) that inhibits CYCLOOXYGENASE, which is necessary for the formation of PROSTAGLANDINS and other AUTACOIDS. It also inhibits the motility of POLYMORPHONUCLEAR LEUKOCYTES. Amuno,Indocid,Indocin,Indomet 140,Indometacin,Indomethacin Hydrochloride,Metindol,Osmosin
D007975 Leukotriene B4 The major metabolite in neutrophil polymorphonuclear leukocytes. It stimulates polymorphonuclear cell function (degranulation, formation of oxygen-centered free radicals, arachidonic acid release, and metabolism).

D010894 Piroxicam A cyclooxygenase inhibiting, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent (NSAID) that is well established in treating rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis and used for musculoskeletal disorders, dysmenorrhea, and postoperative pain. Its long half-life enables it to be administered once daily. CP-16171,Feldene,CP 16171,CP16171
D011458 Prostaglandins E (11 alpha,13E,15S)-11,15-Dihydroxy-9-oxoprost-13-en-1-oic acid (PGE(1)); (5Z,11 alpha,13E,15S)-11,15-dihydroxy-9-oxoprosta-5,13-dien-1-oic acid (PGE(2)); and (5Z,11 alpha,13E,15S,17Z)-11,15-dihydroxy-9-oxoprosta-5,13,17-trien-1-oic acid (PGE(3)). Three of the six naturally occurring prostaglandins. They are considered primary in that no one is derived from another in living organisms. Originally isolated from sheep seminal fluid and vesicles, they are found in many organs and tissues and play a major role in mediating various physiological activities. PGE

D006098 Granulocytes Leukocytes with abundant granules in the cytoplasm. They are divided into three groups according to the staining properties of the granules: neutrophilic, eosinophilic, and basophilic. Mature granulocytes are the NEUTROPHILS; EOSINOPHILS; and BASOPHILS. Granulocyte
D006636 Histamine Release The secretion of histamine from mast cell and basophil granules by exocytosis. This can be initiated by a number of factors, all of which involve binding of IgE, cross-linked by antigen, to the mast cell or basophil's Fc receptors. Once released, histamine binds to a number of different target cell receptors and exerts a wide variety of effects. Histamine Liberation,Histamine Liberations,Histamine Releases
