The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of Hoe 140, a BK receptor B(2) antagonist, on acute oedema induced by carrageenan, BK and kaolin in male Wistar Kyoto rats. Hoe 140 (0.2 mg/kg and 20 mg/kg) given ip caused significant (p<0.05 and p<0.01) inhibition of carrageenan and BK-induced paw oedema. This suggests that BK is the prime inflammatory mediator of carrageenan oedema, and that it is also a specific blocker of oedema caused by BK. Furthermore, Hoe 140 was found to be less effective in reducing kaolin-induced oedema in rats. This might reflect that BK is not a prime inflammatory mediator of kaolin-induced oedema. The possible significance of these findings is discussed.
本研究旨在评估 Hoe 140(一种 BK 受体 B(2)拮抗剂)对雄性 Wistar 京都大鼠角叉菜胶、BK 和高岭土诱导的急性水肿的影响。Hoe 140(0.2 mg/kg 和 20 mg/kg)腹腔给药可显著抑制(p<0.05 和 p<0.01)角叉菜胶和 BK 诱导的爪水肿。这表明 BK 是角叉菜胶水肿的主要炎症介质,并且它也是 BK 诱导的水肿的特异性阻滞剂。此外,发现 Hoe 140 对大鼠高岭土诱导的水肿的减轻作用较小。这可能反映 BK 不是高岭土诱导的水肿的主要炎症介质。讨论了这些发现的可能意义。
