HEMMUNG DER ARACHIDONSAURE-KASKADE DURCH EINEN EXTRAKT AUS ROGGENPOLLEN

A standardized extract mainly from rye pollen (Cernilton ® N) was tested in vitro on the inhibition of prostaglandin and leukotrien synthesis. The determination of the prostaglandin and leukotrien synthesis from labelled arachidonic acid was done in microsomes of ram seminal vesicles resp, in rat basophilic leukemia cells (RBL-1 cells). The water soluble resp. the fat soluble extract fraction from the whole pollen extract were tested separately.
