title: Further studies on the pharmacological effect of the anti-inflammatory compound, bis[2-(E-2-octenoylamino)ethyl] disulfide.
abstract: Further studies on the pharmacological effect of orally administered bis[2-(E-2-octenoyl-amino)ethyl] disulfide (compd. I-3) was examined by using several experimental models in vivo. Compound I-3 showed analgesic activity, inhibiting both acetic acid- and acetylcholine-induced writhings in mice. This compound also showed antipyretic activity against yeast-induced fever in rats, and significantly inhibited arachidonic acid-induced mortality in mice. However, it had no effect on serotonin-induced paw edema formation or platelet activating factor-acether-induced mortality in mice. The effects of compd. I-3 are suggested to be due to inhibition of prostaglandin biosynthesis.
