The inhibitory effects of newly synthesized 4-alkoxyaryl beta-D-glucopyranosides on histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells induced by concanavalin A were examined. A plot of hydrophobicity (k') against inhibitory activity of the compounds showed a distinct maximum, and 4-decyloxy-2,3,6-trimethylphenyl beta-D-glucopyranoside was the most potent inhibitor among the tested compounds.
