Effect of vasoactive agents on prostanoids in suction blister fluid.
Iontophoresis of histamine in the skin has been shown to release prostaglandins and arachidonic acid in suction blister fluid. Application of DMSO had a similar effect. No effect was found after using the following erythema and oedema irritants: scraping, vibration and ketocaine. Treatment with vasoconstricting drugs such as noradrenaline betamethasone and lidocaine-prilocaine mixture did not influence the prostaglandin or arachidonic acid levels.
