1 Feb 2000
Abstract excerpt
Human 12/15-lipoxygenase is a lipid-peroxidating enzyme implicated in the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis and airway inflammation. Interleukin (IL)-4 specifically induces 12/15-lipoxygenase messenger RNA, protein, and enzymatic activity in primary cultures of human monocytes and airway epithelial cells.
