Characterisation of P2Y(12) receptor responsiveness to cysteinyl leukotrienes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Leukotriene E4 (LTE4), the most stable of the cysteinyl leukotrienes (cysLTs), binds poorly to classical type 1 and 2 cysLT receptors although in asthmatic individuals it may potently induce bronchial constriction, airway hyperresponsiveness and ...

Cysteinyl Leukotrienes as Potential Pharmacological Targets for Cerebral Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2017
Cysteinyl leukotrienes (CysLTs) are potent lipid mediators widely known for their actions in asthma and in allergic rhinitis. Accumulating data highlights their involvement in a broader range of inflammation-associated diseases such as cancer, atopic ...

Cysteinyl Leukotrienes in Allergic Inflammation. [PDF]

open access: yesAnnu Rev Pathol
The cysteinyl leukotrienes (CysLTs), LTC4, LTD4, and LTE4, are potent lipid mediators derived from arachidonic acid through the 5-lipoxygenase pathway.

Role of the Cysteinyl Leukotrienes in the Pathogenesis and Progression of Cardiovascular Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2017
Cysteinyl leukotrienes (CysLTs) are potent lipid inflammatory mediators synthesized from arachidonic acid, through the 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) pathway. Owing to their properties, CysLTs play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of inflammation; therefore ...

Cysteinyl Leukotrienes in Eosinophil Biology: Functional Roles and Therapeutic Perspectives in Eosinophilic Disorders [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2017
Cysteinyl leukotrienes (cysLTs), LTC4, and its extracellular metabolites, LTD4 and LTE4, have varied and multiple roles in mediating eosinophilic disorders including host defense against parasitic helminthes and allergic inflammation, especially in the ...
