Using voltage-clamp technique, the involvement of lipoxygenases in the effect of immunomodulatory drug glutoxim on Na transport in frog skin was investigated. It was shown for the first time that preincubation of the skin with lipoxygenase inhibitors caffeic acid, baicalein, and nordihydroguaiaretic acid significantly decreases the stimulatory effect of glutoxim on Na transport. The data suggest the involvement of lipoxygenase oxidation pathway of arachidonic acid metabolism in the glutoxim effect on Na transport in frog skin epithelium.

Using Fura-2AM microfluorimetry, we have shown for the first time that sigma-1 receptor antagonist neuroleptic chlorpromazine significantly inhibits glutoxim- and molixan-induced Ca responses and Ca responses induced by endoplasmic reticulum Са-ATPase inhibitors thapsigargin and cyclopiazonic acid in rat peritoneal macrophages. The results suggest the involvement of sigma-1 receptors in the signaling cascade induced by glutoxim or molixan and leading to intracellular Ca concentration increase and in the regulation of store-dependent Ca entry in macrophages.

Using voltage-clamp technique, the involvement of sigma-1 receptors in the regulation of Na transport in frog skin by the immunomodulatory drug glutoxim was investigated. We have shown for the first time that preincubation of the frog skin with the sigma-1 receptor antagonists haloperidol and chlorpromazine attenuates the stimulatory effect of glutoxim on the Na transport. The results suggest the possible involvement of the sigma-1 receptors in the regulation of Na transport in frog skin epithelium by glutoxim.

Using voltage-clamp technique, the involvement of epoxygenases in immunomodulatory drug glutoxim regulation of Na transport in frog skin was investigated. We have shown for the first time that preincubation of the frog skin with epoxygenase inhibitors econazole or proadifen almost completely inhibits the stimulatory effect of glutoxim on Na transport. The data suggest the involvement of the enzymes and/or products of epoxygenase oxidation pathway of arachidonic acid metabolism in glutoxim effect on Na transport in frog skin epithelium.

Using Fura-2AM microfluorimetry, we have shown for the first time that sigma-1 receptor antagonist, antipsychotic haloperidol, significantly inhibits glutoxim- and molixan-induced Ca-response in peritoneal macrophages. These results indicate possible involvement of sigma-1 receptors in the signal cascade induced by glutoxim or molixan and leading to intracellular Ca concentration increase in macrophages.
