:(-)-leukotriene A4
Description:
(-)-Leukotriene A4 is a biologically active lipid mediator belonging to the leukotriene family, which are derived from arachidonic acid through the lipoxygenase pathway. It is characterized by its role in inflammatory responses and immune system regulation. This compound is a potent chemotactic agent, attracting immune cells such as neutrophils and eosinophils to sites of inflammation. (-)-Leukotriene A4 is known for its involvement in various physiological processes, including bronchoconstriction and increased vascular permeability, making it significant in conditions like asthma and allergic reactions. The structure of (-)-leukotriene A4 features a conjugated diene system, which contributes to its reactivity and biological activity. Additionally, it can be further metabolized into other leukotrienes, such as leukotriene B4, which enhances its role in mediating inflammatory responses. Due to its potent biological effects, (-)-leukotriene A4 is a subject of interest in pharmacological research, particularly in developing anti-inflammatory therapies.
