title: Activation of leukocyte movement and displacement of [3H]leukotriene B4 from leukocyte membrane preparations by (12R)- and (12S)-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid.
abstract: Both (12R)- and (12S)-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid were demonstrated to produce aggregation of rat leukocytes and enhance human leukocyte chemokinesis. (12R)-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid was 10-20-fold more potent than (12S)-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid but at least 500-fold less potent than leukotriene B4 in these assays. These relative potencies are correlated with the potencies of (12R)- and (12S)-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid for competition of [3H]leukotriene B4 binding to rat and human leukocyte membrane preparations.
