Cysteinyl leukotrienes are important mediators of airway inflammation, whereas 8-isoprostane is a biomarker of oxidative stress. This study evaluated the distributions of cysteinyl leukotriene and ...

PepT1 transports dietary and bacterial peptides in the gut. We hypothesized that cysteinyl-glycine would ameliorate the inflammatory effect of a bacterial peptide, formyl-methionyl-leucyl ...

On March 24, 2023, a new research paper was published in Oncotarget, entitled, “Polyisoprenylated cysteinyl amide inhibitors deplete singly polyisoprenylated monomeric G-proteins in lung and ...

Cysteinyl leukotrienes contract bronchial smooth muscles at a 1000-fold lower molar concentration than histamine. Enzymatic steps tightly control the biosynthesis of cysteinyl leukotrienes. The first ...
