title: The production of 5-HETE and leukotriene B in rat neutrophils from carrageenan pleural exudates.
abstract: Rat neutrophils isolated from three-hour carrageenan pleural exudates actively metabolize arachidonic acid into three major metabolites, HHT, 11-HETE and 15-HETE. However, in the presence of the calcium ionophore, A23187, or the non-ionic detergent, BRIJ 56, these cells also produce 5-HETE and LTB. The production of these lipoxygenase products is calcium dependent. While non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs do not affect 5-HETE or LTB production, BW 755C and ETYA inhibit formation of these metabolites from exogenously added arachidonic acid.
