The painting of mouse dorsal skin with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) (0.2-2.5 nmol/mouse) induced a dose-related increase in vascular permeability, which was determined by pontamine sky blue exudation into the skin 5 hr after the TPA treatment. Marked infiltration of neutrophils in the dermal interstitium was also observed 5 hr after TPA treatment. Treatment of mice with nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) (10 mumol/mouse). 2,3,5-trimethyl-6-(12-hydroxy-5,10-dodecadiynyl)-1,4-benzoquinone (AA861) (10 mumol/mouse) and quercetin (3 mumol/mouse) significantly inhibited the TPA-induced dye exudation. However, indomethacin (250-1000 nmol/mouse) tended to inhibit the TPA-induced dye exudation, but the inhibition was not statistically significant. Treatment with AA861 (10 mumol/mouse) also caused a marked inhibition of TPA-induced neutrophil infiltration. Quercetin, NDGA and AA861 inhibited epidermal lipoxygenase activity, but indomethacin failed to inhibit it. On the other hand, indomethacin inhibited epidermal cyclooxygenase, but quercetin, NDGA and AA861 failed to inhibit it. The present study suggests involvement of a lipoxygenase product(s) in the mechanism of the TPA-induced increase in vascular permeability in the dorsal skin of mice.

D002199 Capillary Permeability The property of blood capillary ENDOTHELIUM that allows for the selective exchange of substances between the blood and surrounding tissues and through membranous barriers such as the BLOOD-AIR BARRIER; BLOOD-AQUEOUS BARRIER; BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER; BLOOD-NERVE BARRIER; BLOOD-RETINAL BARRIER; and BLOOD-TESTIS BARRIER. Small lipid-soluble molecules such as carbon dioxide and oxygen move freely by diffusion. Water and water-soluble molecules cannot pass through the endothelial walls and are dependent on microscopic pores. These pores show narrow areas (TIGHT JUNCTIONS) which may limit large molecule movement.
