Target |
Histamine LTC4 PGD2 |
In Vitro | Nedocromil inhibits the release of histamine, LTC4, and PGD2 from mast cells challenged with antigen (with IC30 values of 2.1 μM, 2.3 μM, and 1.9 μM, respectively) and with anti-human IgE (IC30 values of 4.7 μM, 1.3 μM, and 1.3 μM, respectively)[1]. |
In Vivo | Nedocromil-treated diabetic mice show significantly improved heart function compared with controls. The contractility and relaxation forces show similar improvements. However, the cardiac function of Nedocromil-treated diabetic mice remains significantly impaired when compared with normal mice. Nedocromil can significantly improve cardiac function in mice with diabetic cardiomyopathy, but the treatment cannot restore normal function[2]. |
Animal Admin | Mice[2] 8-12 weeks old C57/BL6 male mice between 23-25 g receive intraperitoneal (i.p.) injections of 50 mg/kg Streptozotocin (STZ), dissolved in 100 mM citrate buffer pH 4.5, for five consecutive days. Diabetic mice (13-week-old) are randomly divided into three groups: 1) untreated group; 2) Nedocromil group, with Nedocromil released at the rate of 30 mg/kg per day from a subcutaneous (s.c.) pellet implantation; and vehicle group, with an inactive pellet implanted. Normal mice (non-diabetic) and normal mice that receive Nedocromil (30 mg/kg per day) are also included in this study for comparison. All sample groups included 15 mice (n=15)[2]. |
