Busse William, Kraft Monica
Abstract excerpt
Systemically bioavailable leukotriene receptor antagonists (LTRAs) can reduce the essential components of allergic inflammation in allergic rhinitis (AR) and asthma by blocking cysteinyl leukotriene (CysLT) activity, resulting in a wide range of clinical effects. CysLTs, mediators, and modulators in the pathophysiology of asthma and AR are a key target for therapy because they modulate production of hemopoietic...
