The effects of a new Platelet-Activating Factor (PAF-acether) antagonist (BN 52021) extracted from Ginkgo biloba leaves have been studied on the release of metabolites of arachidonic acid in IgG-dependent guinea pig pulmonary anaphylaxis in vitro. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and thromboxane B2 (TxB2) were assayed using a novel ELISA technique. The release of PGE2 and TxB2 from anaphylactic lungs reached a maximum 4-5 min following the antigen challenge (about 3.2 and 31.0 ng/ml respectively) and decayed slowly during the following 25 min. BN 52021 (1, 3 and 30 micrograms/ml) produced dose-dependent decreases of the release of PGE2 and TxB2. These results suggest that there are some interactions between the release of icosanoids and PAF-acether in anaphylaxis.
