The effect of a thromboxane A2 receptor antagonist BAY-u-3405 on experimental allergic reactions.

The effect of a novel thromboxane A2 receptor antagonist, BAY-u-3405, on experimental allergic airway and skin reactions was studied in vivo. At doses of 3-30 mg/kg BAY-u-3405 clearly inhibited the U-46619-induced increase in respiratory resistance (Rrs) in guinea pigs. BAY-u-3405 at doses of 3 and 30 mg/kg inhibited the aerosolized antigen-induced biphasic increase in respiratory resistance in guinea pigs. Moreover, BAY-u-3405 inhibited repeated aeroantigen-induced airway hyperactivity and airway inflammation in mice. In IgE antibody-mediated biphasic skin reactions in mice, both immediate and late-phase reactions were inhibited by 10 mg/kg of BAY-u-3405. These results demonstrate the efficacy of BAY-u-3405 on the antigen-induced late-phase reactions in the airway and skin in guinea pigs and mice, and antigen-induced airway hyperactivity in mice.[1]
