Abstract

Abstract The in-vivo anti-allergic effect of N-acetylneuraminic acid (NANA) in guinea-pigs passively sensitized with anti-ovalbumin rabbit serum has been studied. NANA (20 mg kg−1 i.v.) inhibited bronchial anaphylaxis and the release of histamine into bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. NANA dose-dependently inhibited heterologous passive cutaneous anaphylaxis and haemorrhaging in the passive Arthus reaction. However, it did not inhibit the release of histamine from sensitized minced lung tissue.
