Abstract
MEDIATORS responsible for the development of inflammatory reactions have been extensively studied. Much less is known about anti-inflammatory mechanisms. During the past 15 years evidence has accumulated that anti-inflammatory factors are released at the site of inflammation1–10. Research in this area has been stimulated by the introduction of the carrageenin foot oedema test11, which is very sensitive to endogenous anti-inflammatory factors7.
