DP receptor localization also seems to vary considerably between species. For example, platelet DP receptors seem to be most abundant in humans and not in other animal species (57). PGD, is also the major prostaglandin produced by mast cells following immunological challenge (58). Recent studies using mice deficient in the DP receptor have suggested that PGD, production may be important in some aspects of asthma (59). In a model of asthma, when challenged with ovalbumin,...

MCP-l-deficient mice have normal lifespans, have no apparent developmental abnormalities, are healthy when raised in specific pathogen-free environments, and have normal hematological profiles. Nonetheless, these mice display abnormal phenotypes when subjected to inflammatory or immunological challenge. For example, wild-type mice respond to intraperitoneal instillation of thioglycollate broth with a significant...
