Role of Leukotrienes and Leukotriene Modifiers in Asthma
Leukotrienes (LTs), including cysteinyl LTs (CysLTs) and LTB4, are potent lipid mediators that are pivotal in the pathophysiology of asthma phenotypes. At least two receptor subtypes for CysLTs – CysLT1 and CysLT2 – have been identified.

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.

Leukotrienes vs. Montelukast—Activity, Metabolism, and Toxicity Hints for Repurposing
Increasing environmental distress is associated with a growing asthma incidence; no treatments are available but montelukast (MTK)—an antagonist of the cysteinyl leukotrienes receptor 1—is widely used in the management of symptoms among adults and ...

Leukotrienes in Tumor-Associated Inflammation
Leukotrienes are biologically active eicosanoid lipid mediators that originate from oxidative metabolism of arachidonic acid. Biosynthesis of leukotrienes involves a set of soluble and membrane-bound enzymes that constitute a machinery complex primarily ...

Montelukast induces beneficial behavioral outcomes and reduces inflammation in male and female rats
BackgroundAccumulative data links inflammation and immune dysregulation to the pathophysiology of mental disorders; little is known regarding leukotrienes’ (LTs) involvement in this process.

Arnica montana is well known for its anti-inflammatory properties. While the anti-inflammatory activity of Arnica flowers (Arnicae flos) has been extensively studied, that of the whole plant (Arnicae planta tota) is less characterized.

Leukotrienes, leukotriene receptor antagonists, and rhinitis [PDF]
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.

Leukotriene mechanisms of allergic enterocolitis pathogenesis in young children
Purpose of the study was to determine the parameters of lipid mediators of allergic inflammation (cysteinyl leukotrienes C4, D4, E4) by enzyme immunoassay in serum, saliva, urine of young children with allergic enterocolitis.Materials and methods.
