Prophylactic effect of Ab181 on maxadilan-induced increase in DBF in rats 48 hours after drug treatment. Rats were given intravenous bolus injection of Ab181 (0.1, 0.3, 1, and 10 mg/kg, n = 6-7 rats/group). Forty-eight hours later, after obtaining a postdrug baseline (BL), maxadilan at a dose of 10 ng (in 20-µL DPBS) was injected intradermally. The dermal blood flow (DBF) was measured by a laser Doppler imager. (A) The increase in DBF (change from BL) caused by maxadilan injection over 60 minutes was expressed as % change from BL = [100 × (individual postmaxadilan flux − individual BL flux)/individual BL flux]. (B) % change from BL (left-axis) vs resulting serum concentrations (right axis) at 15 minutes after maxadilan; solid triangle represents % change from BL at 48 hours after drug treatment (left axis, mean ± SEM), and open bar represents serum concentration at 48 hours after drug treatment (right axis, mean ± SD). ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001 compared with vehicle-treated group by one-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett's MCT. ANOVA, analysis of variance; DBPS, Dulbecco's phosphate-buffered saline; MCT, multiple comparison test.
