Cysteinyl Leukotriene R2/CysLTR2 Products

Description

Cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 2 (CysLT2) is a Chemoattractant Receptor that binds neutrophil chemoattractants such as cysteinyl leukotrienes. These ligands have potent proinflammatory activity and are implicated in many features of asthma including edema, bronchial constriction, and hyperreactivity (Bisgaard et al., 2000). Activation of cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 2 induces cell contraction and/or relaxation. CysLT2 expression has been reported in adrenal medulla, blood, brain, heart, kidney, lung, lymph node, ovary, placenta, prostate, pulmonary artery and vein, small intestine, and spleen. ESTs have been isolated from human kidney and liver/spleen libraries.
