Product name:Human leukotriene E4 ELISA Kit
Description:
Leukotrienes are fatty molecules of the immune system that contribute to inflammation in asthma and bronchitis. Leukotriene antagonists are used to treat asthma and bronchitis.Leukotrienes are produced in the body from arachidonic acid by the enzyme 5-lipoxygenase. Leukotrienes produced within a cell convey signals that either act on the cell producing them (autocrine signalling) or on neighboring cells (paracrine signalling) to regulate the immune response. Leukotrienes are produced from arachidonic acid by the enzyme 5-lipoxygenase. Their production usually accompanies the production of histamine.
