Effects of lipoxygenase inhibitors in a model of lens-induced uveitis in dogs.
1989
Dziezyc J. | Millichamp N.J. | Rohde B.H. | Baker J.S. | Chiou G.C.Y.
Uveitis was induced in dogs by intracameral injection of canine lens protein. The lipoxygenase inhibitors phenidone and norhydroguaiaretic acid, and dimethyl sulfoxide decreased fibrin production at 0.5 and 1 hour after induction uveitis. Phenidone and norhydroguaiaretic acid also inhibited the initial increase intraocular pressure early in the course of inflammation. Leukotriene B4 in the aqueous was measured by use of radioimmunoassay at 1 hour after inflammation. In control dogs, 230 to 1,700 pg of leukotriene B4/ml was measured; in dogs treated with phenidone, leukotriene, B4 was not measured.

1989
Kim, D. | Han, H.R. (Seoul National Univ., Suwon (Korea R.). Coll. of Veterinary Medicine)
The effects of the serum total protein and immunoglobulin levels of the colostrum-conferred Korean native calves at 2 days of age on the disease incidence during the suckling period were studied. Serum total protein, total immunoglobulin, IgG, and IgM levels of 6 Korean native calves died from septicemia were lower than those of calves survived (p0.05). Korean native calves having low serum total protein and immunoglobulins were affected with diarrhea earlier in life, when compared with calves having high serum levels (P0.05). Korea native calves having low serum total protein were affected with bronchopneumonia earlier in life, when compared with calves having high serum levels (P0.05). Korean native calves having low serum neutralizing antibody titers to bovine viral diarrhea virus had high incidence rate of BVD, when compared with calves having having high serum neutralizing antibody titers (P0.05)
