[Cardiovascular reactivity to arachidonic acid, prostaglandin E2, prostacyclin and bradykinin in carrageenan treated rats].
In the rat, during carrageenan-induced peritonitis, the hypotensive activity of arachidonic acid, which depends on PG biosynthesis, is increased during the first hours, and thereafter is not modified. The vasodilator action of PGE2 is reduced during the first day while the actions of PGI2 and bradykinin are not modified. The concentrations of plasma albumin and haptoglobin, two inhibitors of PG biosynthesis are reduced during the first hours. Thereafter the concentration of haptoglobin is increased by 100% while the concentration of albumin remains diminished. During this peritonitis, no plasmatic inhibitory influence on PG synthesis is seen. The anti-inflammatory action of carrageenans does not depend on PG synthesis inhibition.
