Quercetin inhibits anaphylactic contraction of guinea pig ileum smooth muscle.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Certain flavonoids inhibit antigen-induced release of histamine from mast cells and basophils and also inhibit contraction of guinea pig ileum induced by histamine, acetylcholine, and PGE2. We examined the effect of one flavonoid, quercetin, on anaphylactic smooth muscle contraction of ileum from guinea pigs sensitized to egg albumin. Quercetin inhibited both the phasic and tonic components of anaphylactic contraction in a concentration-dependent fashion (IC50 approximately 10 microM). Whether this is primarily an effect on mast cell mediator release or inhibition of mediator effects on smooth muscle has not been established.

متن کاملPreventive effects of ipratropium and salbutamol against insulin induced tracheal smooth muscle contraction in guinea pig model
Inhalational insulin was withdrawn from the market due to its potential to produce airway hyper-reactivity and bronchoconstriction. So the present study was designed to explore the acute effects of insulin on airway reactivity of guinea pigs and protective effects of salbutamol and ipratropium against insulin induced airway hyper-responsiveness on isolated tracheal smooth muscle of guinea pig. ...
متن کاملA comparative study on the effects of new opioid compounds and morphine on the contractility of guinea pig ileum and mouse vas deferens
Considering the clinical significance of opioids, especially their application for the treatment of severe painful conditions including cancer pain and the requirement for the synthesis of more specific drugs with lower side effects, this study was conducted to perform a preliminary investigation on six newly developed opioid drugs. Our aim was to introduce drugs that act selectively on the opi...

متن کاملINHIBITORY EFFECT OF MITRAGYNINE, AN ALKALOID WITH ANALGESIC EFFECT FROM THAI MEDICINAL PLANT Mitrugyna speciosu, ON ELECTRICALLY STIMUIATED CONTRACTION OF ISOLATED GUINEA-PIG LEUM THROUGH THE OPIOID RECEPTOR
Effect of mitragynine, an indole alkaloid isolated from Thai medicinal plant kratom (Mitrugym speciosu), on electrically stimulated contraction was studied in the guinea-pig ileum. Mitragynine (1 nM 3 PM) inhibited the ileum contraction elicited by electrical stimulation, and its pD2 value was 6.91 + 0.04 (n = 5). Morphine (1 nM 1 PM) also inhibited the electrically stimulated contraction in a ...
