Cysteinyl-leukotrienes in the regulation of β<sub>2</sub>-adrenoceptor function: an in vitro model of asthma
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The response to β<sub>2</sub>-adrenoceptor agonists is reduced in asthmatic airways. This desensitization may be in part due to inflammatory mediators and may involve cysteinyl-leukotrienes (cysteinyl-LTs). Cysteinyl-LTs...
