Cytokine-Leukotriene Receptor Interactions
The Scientific World Journal, 2007 Biochemical and pharmacological studies have identified the structure of leukotrienes, the pathways that lead to their synthesis, and the signaling events they trigger when they interact with their cognate receptors.

Cytoplasmic lipid bodies in eosinophils: Central roles in eicosanoid generation
Allergology International, 1997 Lipid bodies are non-membrane bound, lipid-rich cytoplasmic inclusions that form in diverse cell types. Characteristically, lipid body numbers increase when eosinophils and other leukocytes are participating in inflammatory processes.

Effects of inflammation in dental pulp cell differentiation and reparative response
Frontiers in Dental Medicine, 2022 The responsiveness of the dentin–pulp complex is possible due to the stimulation of dental pulp cells, which begin to synthesize and secrete dentin matrix.

Protective effect of leukotriene receptor antagonist montelukast on smoking-induced lung injury in Wistar rats. [PDF]
, 2003 Increased activation of alveolar macrophage, neutrophil and mast cell has been proven in cigarette smoking (CS)-related lung disorders (CSLD). An increased production of cysteinyl-leukotrienes (LTs), which are mediators secreted from the mentioned cells,

NSAIDs and Acute Pancreatitis: A Systematic Review
Pharmaceuticals, 2010 The resulting pain is the main symptom of acute pancreatitis and it should be alleviated as soon as possible. NSAIDs are the first line therapy for pain and they are generally administered to acute pancreatitis patients upon admission to the hospital. In

Amyloid proteotoxicity initiates an inflammatory response blocked by cannabinoids. [PDF]
, 2016 The beta amyloid (Aβ) and other aggregating proteins in the brain increase with age and are frequently found within neurons. The mechanistic relationship between intracellular amyloid, aging and neurodegeneration is not, however, well understood.

NSAID-Exacerbated Respiratory Disease (NERD): From Pathogenesis to Improved Care
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2020 Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID)-exacerbated respiratory disease (NERD) is characterized by moderate-to-severe asthma and a higher prevalence of chronic rhinosinusitis/nasal polyps, but is a highly heterogeneous disorder with various clinical ...

Matrikines are key regulators in modulating the amplitude of lung inflammation in acute pulmonary infection [PDF]
, 2015 Bioactive matrix fragments (matrikines) have been identified in a myriad of disorders, but their impact on the evolution of airway inflammation has not been demonstrated.
