In vitro effect of coniferin wastested for interactions with the cyclo-oxygenase and 5-lipoxygenase pathways of arachidonate metabolism in calcium-stimulated mouse peritoneal macrophages and human platelets. In these experiments coniferin produces reduction in generation of both cyclo-oxygenase (IC50 values 75.2 microM for prostaglandin E2 and 619 microM for thromboxane B2) and 5-lipoxygenase metabolites, but the effects are greater against leukotriene C4 (IC50 value 63.6 microM).
