Abstract

Amine-carboxyboranes are potent anti-inflammatory agents reducing induced edema and pleural effusion at 8 mg/Kg, i.p. They protect against LPS (Salmonella) induced septic shock from 2-8 mg/Kg/day and are effective in blocking pain mediated both locally and centrally. The mode of action of these agents is by blocking release of cytokines from macrophages, thus reducing lysosomal hydrolytic and proteolytic enzyme activities of affected cells. The agents also reduce prostaglandin and leukotriene synthesis by blocking the activities of regulatory enzymes of the respective pathways.
