Higgins, A.J. The biology, pathophysiology and control of eicosanoids in inflammation. J. vet. Pluirmacol. Therap. 8, 1–18.

The involvement in inflammatory conditions of those cyclo‐oxygenase and lipoxygenase derivatives of arachidonic acid (5, 8, 11, 14‐eicosatetraenoic acid), which are known as the eicosanoids, is reviewed iti the light of recent studies. Although it is now generally recognized that cyclo‐oxygenase products are fundamental to the inflammatory process as chemical mediators, and that inhibition of the cyclo‐oxygenase enzyme pathway explains the mode of action of most non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) commonly prescribed in veterinary practice, evidence for the involvement of lipoxygenase products of arachidonate metabolism in inflammation is increasing. The leukotrienes (LTs) are 5‐lipoxygenase‐derived eicosanoids which have been shown to be leucotactic and involved in anaphylactic and hypersensitivity reactions. Leucocytes, drawn to sites of injury by chemotaxis, themselves liberate pro‐inflammatory eicosanoids which perpetuate the response and may aggravate the clinical condition. At therapeutic dose rates, most NSAIDs have no effect on the biosynthesis of LTs, whereas corticosteroids, by inhibiting the release of arachidonic acid, may prevent the formation of both cyclo‐oxygenase and lipoxygenase products. However, because of the undesirable side‐effects of steroids, the clinical use of these agents in treating inflammatory conditions is sometimes limited. Novel non‐steroid inhibitors of cyclo‐oxygenase and lipoxygenase enzyme pathways could offer more effective and safer control of inflammation in animals.
