Possible role of phosphodiesterase 7A (PDE7A) in skin inflammation was examined using ASB16165, a specific inhibitor for PDE7A. Epicutaneous application of phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) to mouse ear resulted in induction of skin edema, and topical treatment with ASB16165
Several responses suggested to be critical components of phorbol ester tumor promotion were compared in 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) promotion-sensitive SSIN and TPA promotion-resistant C57BL/6J mice. SSIN mice treated topically with 2 micrograms of TPA showed extensive hyperplasia
Topical application of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) to mouse ear induced a prolonged skin inflammation. Histological analysis revealed that the early stage (approximately 3 h) and later stage (6-24 h) of the skin reaction are characterized by dermal edema and cell accumulation,
Thromboxanes (Txs) were implicated as possible participants in the altered microvascular permeability of acute lung injury when the Tx synthase inhibitor, OKY-046, was reported to prevent pulmonary edema induced by phorbol myristate acetate (PMA). Recently, however, we found that OKY-046, at a dose
The administration of leukotrienes (LTs) into the pulmonary circulation results in edema formation and increased vascular permeability. We reported previously that the administration of phorbol myristate acetate (PMA, 20 micrograms/kg) to intact anesthetized dogs results in a reduction in
Air-pouch-type inflammation was induced by injecting sodium carboxymethyl cellulose solution containing leukotriene C4 (LTC4, 3.20 x 10(-7) M, 0.2 micrograms/ml) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2, 5.68 x 10(-6) M, 2.0 micrograms/ml), platelet-activating factor (PAF, 1 x 10(-6) M, 0.52 micrograms/ml), or
Topical application of TPA to a murine ear induced an edema that was accompanied by eicosanoid biosynthesis and an early enhancement of prostaglandin H synthase 2 (PGHS-2) expression. PGHS-2 induction may be correlated with the time-course of TPA-induced edema formation. Treatment with drugs that
Pretreatment of CD-1 mouse skin with prostratin (12-deoxyphorbol 13-acetate) inhibited biological response to phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. The three responses examined were hyperplasia, induction of ornithine decarboxylase, and edema; the characteristics of inhibition depended on the specific
The temporal patterns of edema and accumulation of the PMN marker enzyme, myeloperoxidase (MPO), were examined following application of tetradecanoylphorbol acetate (TPA) to mouse ears. After application of 2.5 micrograms TPA, edema peaked at 6 hr, while MPO activity peaked at 24 hr. Pharmacological
The dried fruits of Crataegus pinnatifida have been used traditionally as oriental medicine and local soft drink material recently. Previously, we demonstrated that C. pinnatifida exhibited anti-oxidation and anti-inflammatory potential. To clarify the active components in anti-transformation and
The molecular mechanisms for regulating water balance in many tissues are unknown. Like the kidney, the eye contains multiple water channel proteins (aquaporins) that transport water through membranes, including two (AQP1 and AQP4) in the ciliary body, the site of aqueous humor production. However,
Tumor-promoting phorbol esters are potent inflammatory agents for mouse skin, and the potential mechanistic role of inflammation in tumor promotion is under active investigation. We have shown previously that resiniferatoxin, a uniquely irritant phorbol-related diterpene, acts as a capsaicin
All tumor-promoting phorbol esters induce inflammation in mouse skin. The correlation between promoting and inflammatory activities is only partial, however, indicating that only some events in inflammation may be closely coupled to the process of tumor promotion. Resiniferatoxin (RTX), an extremely
In two-stage skin chemical carcinogenesis, phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) acts as a promoter essential for clonal expansion of the initiated cells carrying the activated ras oncogenes. Although protein kinase C (PKC) isozymes are the main targets of TPA, their role in tumor
Platelet activating factor (PAF) has long been associated with acute edema and inflammatory responses. PAF acts by binding to a specific G-protein coupled receptor (PAF-R, Ptafr). However, the role of chronic PAF-R activation on sustained inflammatory responses has been largely ignored. We recently
