Cysteinyl leukotrienes mediate enhanced vasoconstriction to angiotensin II but not endothelin-1 in SHR

open access: yes, 2001
We assessed whether cysteinyl leukotrienes mediate the vasoconstrictor responses to angiotensin II and endothelin-1 in the mesenteric vascular bed of Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) perfused ex vivo at a constant flow rate of

Studies of receptors and modulatory mechanisms in functional responses to cysteinyl-leukotrienes in smooth muscle

open access: yes, 2001
Cysteinyl-leukotrienes, i.e. leukotriene (LT) C4, D4 and E4, are inflammatory mediators and potent airway- and vasoconstrictors. Two different cysteinyl-leukotriene receptors have been cloned, CysLT, and CysLT2.

Influenza‐induced tuft cell expansion is associated with changes in ILC2 populations in the distal lungs of mice

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 13, July 2026.
Abstract Tuft cells act as sentinels that amplify type 2 inflammation primarily by activating type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s). Although normally absent from the distal lung, ectopic tuft cells form after severe lung injury including influenza infection in mice.

Concentrations of Cysteinyl Leukotrienes in Various Biological Fluids of Children with Bronchial Asthma, Atopic Dermatitis and Food Protein Induced Enterocolitis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Clinical manifestation of food allergy is characterized by polymorphic cutaneous, respiratory and gastrointestinal syndromes. Leukotrienes occupy a key place in the pathogenesis of a wide range of inflammatory diseases, including bronchial asthma ...

Discovery of an Adaptive Neuroimmune Response Driving Itch and Fast Tick Removal with Implications for Preventing Pathogen Transmission

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 32, 9 June 2026.
Itch‐induced tick removal (IITR): An acquired neuroimmune mechanism, itch‐induced tick removal, develops after repeated tick exposure, mobilizing T cells and macrophages at the tick bite site to trigger a rapid scratching response that facilitates timely tick removal within a critical window that precedes the transmission of many tick‐borne pathogens ...

Intestinal mast cell-derived leukotrienes mediate anaphylactic response to ingested antigens

open access: yesScience
Anaphylaxis is a life-threatening complication of food allergen exposure. While mechanisms governing anaphylaxis after intravenous injection are defined in mice, these models neglect mucosal exposure that accompanies ingestion.

Cysteine leukotrienes as key mediators of immune-dependent diseases and the therapeutic potential of the leukotriene receptor antagonist (montelukast). Part 1

open access: yesЛечащий Врач
Background. Cysteine leukotrienes are lipid mediators formed upon activation of the 5-lipoxygenase pathway of arachidonate metabolism. These are universal mediators with a wide spectrum of action, affecting almost all aspects of mammalian biology.

Circulatory leukotriene changes during bone healing following osteotomies prepared with Er:YAG laser and piezosurgery: an animal study

open access: yesBiotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2019
Among high-energy lasers, the short-pulsed infrared erbium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet (Er:YAG) laser has shown the best potential for precise cutting and rapid osseous healing. The objective of the present study was to analyse the healing of the bone

A role for inflammatory mediators in heterologous desensitization of CysLT1 receptor in human monocytes

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2010
Cysteinyl-leukotrienes (cysteinyl-LT) are rapidly generated at sites of inflammation and, in addition to their role in asthma, rhinitis, and other immune disorders, are increasingly regarded as significant inflammatory factors in cancer, gastrointestinal,

Nasal Blockage Induced by Oral Administration of Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs in a Guinea-Pig Model of Allergic Rhinitis

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2007
To elucidate the mechanisms underlying nasal symptoms in patients with aspirin hypersensitivity, we evaluated the effects of orally administered non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) on the nasal patency of guinea pigs with cedar pollen–induced ...
