Leukotriene synthesis by epithelial cells.
1 Apr 2003
Abstract excerpt
Leukotrienes (LTs) are intercellular signaling molecules that evoke a variety of responses. They are best known as potent promoters of inflammation. Normally, LTs are produced primarily by leukocytes. As a result, current models regarding the production of LTs in the context of disease focus on the leukocytes as the site of production. Structural cells, including epithelial cells, are typically relegated to...
