Leukotriene B4 induces airway hyperresponsiveness in dogs
, 1985 We studied the effect of leukotriene B4 aerosols on airway responsiveness to inhaled acetylcholine aerosols and on the cellular components and cyclooxygenase metabolites in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid in dogs.

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Ischemic stroke, a major cause of mortality and long‐term disability, results from the abrupt cessation of cerebral blood flow due to vascular occlusion or rupture. Icosapent Ethyl (EPA‐EE), approved for hypertriglyceridemia, has anti‐inflammatory and antithrombotic properties that may lessen ischemic damage.

Biological properties of dihydro-leukotriene B4, an alternative leukotriene B4 metabolite
, 1988 Dihydro-leukotriene B4 (a 5,12-dihydroxy-eicosatrienoic acid) has been shown to be the primary metabolite of leukotriene B4, (LTB4) in a variety of cells other than human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNLs).

SuFEx‐Enabled Reprogramming of Flavonoids for Selective α‐Glucosidase Covalent Inhibition
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Selective inhibition of intestinal α‐glucosidase remains limited by poor enzyme specificity and off‐target metabolic effects. Here, SuFEx click chemistry is used to reprogram natural flavonoids into covalent inhibitors with enhanced α‐glucosidase selectivity and controlled reactivity. This strategy enables effective regulation of carbohydrate digestion

Organic peroxides inhibit neutrophil leukotriene B4 biosynthesis
, 1992 Leukotriene B4, an autacoid metabolite of arachidonic acid produced by polymorphonuclear neutrophils, induces chemokinesis, chemotaxis, and adhesion of these cells at sites of inflammation.
