Inhibition of arachidonic acid metabolism by antipyrine and 4-aminoantipyrine. 1985

D Cohen, and J Corbin, and J P Figueroa, and P W Nathanielsz, and M D Mitchell

Antipyrine and 4-aminoantipyrine are used to determine uterine and umbilical blood flows. When administered in vivo, these compounds produce a decrease in uterine contracture activity and maternal uterine vein 13,14-dihydro-15-keto-prostaglandin F2 alpha concentrations. In this paper we report that they also inhibit in vitro activity of prostaglandin synthase in bovine seminal microsomes.

D000675	Ampyrone	A metabolite of AMINOPYRINE with analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. It is used as a reagent for biochemical reactions producing peroxides or phenols. Ampyrone stimulates LIVER MICROSOMES and is also used to measure extracellular water.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D000983	Antipyrine	An analgesic and antipyretic that has been given by mouth and as ear drops. Antipyrine is often used in testing the effects of other drugs or diseases on drug-metabolizing enzymes in the liver. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p29)	Phenazone,Anodynin,Pyramidone
D001091	Arachidonate Lipoxygenases	Enzymes catalyzing the oxidation of arachidonic acid to hydroperoxyarachidonates. These products are then rapidly converted by a peroxidase to hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids. The positional specificity of the enzyme reaction varies from tissue to tissue. The final lipoxygenase pathway leads to the leukotrienes. EC 1.13.11.- .	Arachidonic Acid Lipoxygenase,Lipoxygenase, Arachidonic Acid,Lipoxygenases, Arachidonate

D012669	Seminal Vesicles	A saclike, glandular diverticulum on each ductus deferens in male vertebrates. It is united with the excretory duct and serves for temporary storage of semen.

D016718	Arachidonic Acid	An unsaturated, essential fatty acid. It is found in animal and human fat as well as in the liver, brain, and glandular organs, and is a constituent of animal phosphatides. It is formed by the synthesis from dietary linoleic acid and is a precursor in the biosynthesis of prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and leukotrienes.
