Heterogeneity of leukotriene receptors in guinea-pig trachea
Prostaglandins
|February 1, 1983
Abstract:
The selective leukotriene (LT) antagonist FPL 55712 antagonized the contractile activity of synthetic LTD4 and E4 on guinea-pig trachea. Schild analysis of the antagonism provided evidence for two distinct receptors for LTD4: one with significantly higher affinity for FPL 55712 than the other. LTE4 appears to interact preferentially with the high affinity receptor.
