| Abstract | The antagonist activity of three leukotriene D4 (LTD4) receptor antagonists and a number of bronchodilators was determined against LTC4-induced contractions of guinea-pig isolated tracheal chains in the absence and presence of the gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase inhibitor, L-serine borate (SB). The LTD4 receptor antagonists FPL-55712, L-649,923 and L-648,051 effectively antagonized LTC4 responses in the absence of SB but were ineffective in the presence of 15 and/or 45 mM SB. Salbutamol greater than isobutylmethylxanthine (IBMX) greater than dibutyryl cyclic AMP greater than aminophylline greater than nifedipine antagonized contractions to LTC4 in the absence of SB. In contrast, in the presence of SB the antagonist activity of all of these agents except nifedipine was significantly reduced. The antagonist activity of the Ca2+ entry blocker, nifedipine, was similar in the absence and presence of SB. Salbutamol and IBMX were potent functional antagonists of LTE4-induced contractions both in the absence and presence of SB. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that there are contractile LTC4 receptor mechanisms in guinea-pig trachea which are unmasked by SB and are not blocked by LTD4 receptor antagonists and which are less effectively down modulated by cyclic AMP-dependent bronchodilators. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
