Involvement of leukotriene pathway in the pathogenesis of ischemia-reperfusion injury and septic and non-septic shock. [PDF]
, 2009 The 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) pathway is responsible for the production of leukotrienes (LTs), inflammatory lipid mediators which play a role in innate immunity. More recently, a pivotal role of LTs in ischemia-reperfusion and shock injury has been suggested.

Leukotrienes, leukotriene receptor antagonists, and rhinitis [PDF]
Allergy, 2000 A series of clinical studies have shown the ef®cacy of leukotriene (LT) receptor antagonists (LTRAs) in the treatment of bronchial asthma (1±6). LTRAs relieve bronchospasm, prevent exercise-induced asthma, and reduce bronchial hyperresponsiveness.

Addition to inhaled corticosteroids of long-acting beta2-agonists versus anti-leukotrienes for chronic asthma [PDF]
, 2011 Asthma patients who continue to experience symptoms despite being on regular inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) represent a management challenge. Long-acting beta2-agonists (LABA) or anti-leukotrienes (LTRA) are two treatment options that could be considered ...
