Cysteinyl-Leukotriene Receptors and Cellular Signals [PDF]
Cysteinyl-leukotrienes (cysteinyl-LTs) exert a range of proinflammatory effects, such as constriction of airways and vascular smooth muscle, increase of endothelial cell permeability leading to plasma exudation and edema, and enhanced mucus secretion ...

Changes in cysteinyl leukotrienes during and after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass in patients with and without chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [PDF]
Objective Pulmonary function frequently deteriorates after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) increases risk of respiratory complications after CPB.

Cysteinyl Leukotriene Pathway and Cancer [PDF]
Cancer remains a leading cause of death worldwide, despite many advances being made in recent decades. Changes in the tumor microenvironment, including dysregulated immunity, may contribute to carcinogenesis and cancer progression. The cysteinyl leukotriene (CysLT) pathway is involved in several signal pathways, having various functions in different ...

A critical role for Macrophage-derived Cysteinyl-Leukotrienes in HIV-1 induced neuronal injury. [PDF]
Macrophages (MΦ) infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 or activated by its envelope protein gp120 exert neurotoxicity. We found previously that signaling via p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) is essential to the neurotoxicity ...

FIRST 5-DAYS FOLLOW-UP AND CORRELATION STUDY BETWEEN URINARY CYSTEINYL LEUKO TRIENES AND EDEMA VALUES IN PRIMARY SPONTANEOUS SUPRATENTORIAL INTRACEREBRAL HEMO RRHAGE [PDF]
Background: After intracerebral hemorrhage cysteinyl leukotrienes (C4, D4, E4) are synthetisized in the contact brain parenchyma-extravasated blood and participate in producing of edema formation.

Cysteinyl maresins regulate the prophlogistic lung actions of cysteinyl leukotrienes. [PDF]
Cysteinyl leukotrienes (CysLTs) are potent prophlogistic mediators in asthmatic patients; however, inhibition of CysLT receptor 1 is not a consistently effective treatment, suggesting additional regulatory mechanisms. Other cysteinyl-containing lipid mediators (LMs) derived from docosahexaenoic acid, namely maresin conjugates in tissue regeneration ...
