SUMMARY A group of 17patients with allergic asthma was challenged With aerosolized antigen, and the excretion of the peptldoleukotrlene metabolite leukotrlene (LT) E. In the urine was determined as an Index of leukotrlene synthesis. The allergen challenge caused a drop In FEY, of 25 to 59% within the first 2 h In all patients. This was associated with an Increase In urine LTE. excretion during the SUbsequent 12 h. The amount of urinary LTE. excreted increased from a 12-h baseline level of 46±6.8 ng to apostallergen challenge level of 92±13ng. In a similar experimental protocol methacholine challenge alone did not significantly Increase urinary LTE. excretion. In comparing all Individuals as a group, there was no significant positive correlation between the magnitude of the drop in FEY, during the immediate asthmatic response (IAR) and the Incre!'sed amount of LTE. excreted In the urine (p= 0.08). These parameters ware stili not significantly correlated when airways reactivity (log PC,,) was also considered (p= 0.057). However, when each Individual was compared to self In the presence and absence of cromoglycate, a significant correlation was found to exist between the drop In FEY1 during the IAR, the excretion of urinary LTE., and the airways reactivity. No correlation was found between the Increase In urine LTE. excreted during the 12h following allergen challenge and the severity of late (3 to 12 h) responses to allergen, but there was a significant prolonged (12to 36 h) eleveted urine LTE. excretion In those patients with the most severe late asthmatic response. These results suggest that leukotrlene synthesis In the airways Is Increased during allergic asthmatic reactions and this Increased synthesis may mediate some of the symptoms observed.
