Inhibitory effect of NZ-107 on anaphylactic bronchoconstriction in guinea pigs and rats.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2) plays a key role in the development of late-phase anaphylaxis. L-Glutamine (Gln), a nonessential amino acid, has anti-inflammatory activity via inhibiting cPLA2. METHODS:We used a penicillin-induced murine model of anaphylaxis, and late-phase anaphylaxis was quantified by ...
