Abstract:
Antagonists of leukotriene D4 (LTD4), 3-[7-(2-n-propyl-3-hydroxy-4-acetyl- phenoxy)-propoxy-2-methyl-3,4-dihydro-4-8-n-propyl-2H-1-benzopyran- 2-yl]-propionic acid (SC-39070) and 7-[3-(4-acetyl-3-hydroxy-2-propylphenoxy)-2-hydroxy- propoxy]-4-methyl- 2-oxo-2H-1-benzopyran-3-acetic acid (FPL-60319) were locally administered to eyes of rabbits with immunogenic keratitis. The period of circular leukocyte infiltration (Wessely's ring) in the cornea was markedly decreased. Edema and neovascularization of the cornea were not influenced.
