[Exploration of endogenous mechanisms controlling the inflammatory reaction, by the study of counter-irritation: release of prostaglandins, formation of kinins and accumulation of leukocytes]
Abstract
This review was focused on counter irritation by turpentine in the rat. The involvement of sympathetic system, adrenal steroids, beta-endorphin, axon reflexes, haptoglobin, alpha-2-macroglobulin, complement activation, prostaglandin synthesis, kinin formation and leukocyte accumulation was considered as possible explanation of the anti-inflammatory effect of counter irritation by turpentine. The main mechanism consists of the reduction of leucocyte accumulation.
