Characterization of the Cysteinyl Leukotriene 2 Receptor in Novel Expression Sites of the Gastrointestinal Tract

Cysteinyl leukotrienes (cysLTs: LTC4 , LTD4 , and LTE4 ) are pro-inflammatory lipid molecules synthesized from arachidonic acid. They exert their actions on at least two cysLT receptors (CysLT1 R and CysLT2 R). Endothelial expression and activation of these receptors is linked to vasoactive response...
