Bioactivity | 12-epi-LTB4 is an agonist for BLT1 and BLT2. 12-epi LTB4 exhibits a partial agonistic activity against mBLT1 and mBLT2, and induces phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase in primary mouse keratinocytes[1][2]. |
In Vivo | BLT1 and BLT2[1] MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only. |
