Effect of alloimmunized thymic cells on isolated mouse atria. Participation of prostaglandins. 1983

A M Genaro, and G A Cremaschi, and M E Sales, and E S Borda

The effects of thymic cells from alloimmunized mice on the mechanical activity of isolated mouse atria were explored. Immune cells decreased the tension without changing the rate of beating of the atrium. After inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis with indomethacin and acetylsalicylic acid, the negative inotropic action of alloimmunized thymic cells was blocked.

D001241 Aspirin The prototypical analgesic used in the treatment of mild to moderate pain. It has anti-inflammatory and antipyretic properties and acts as an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase which results in the inhibition of the biosynthesis of prostaglandins. Aspirin also inhibits platelet aggregation and is used in the prevention of arterial and venous thrombosis.
